Intrepid Free Press columnist Brian Dickerson wonders whether a case to come before the Supreme Court this fall concerning affirmative action could be enough to swing the Presidential election to the republican candidate.
I know a close election is good for the bottom line of Dickerson's profession, but let's be real: unless the Supreme Court's hearing has the magical power of creating more angry white men (just a hunch, but I'm guessing the odds are a wee bit long) it's probably going to have zero effect. Angry white men aren't going to vote for President Obama regardless of the Supreme Court case, and it's hard to see how the case garners the republican nominee any black, hispanic, asian, or female votes over and above the few they're already going to get.
I pay money for the privilege of reading commentary that shallow....
