And Rupert Murdoch runs with it!
Yesterday, I was on the subway to work. An elderly black man was reading Murdoch's tabloid, NY Post. He turned to a page with 2 photos similar to photos in a Daily Kos recommended Diary: "March 5, 2008 — A prominent left-wing Web site is questioning whether Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign is playing the race card - by darkening the tone of Barack Obama's skin in a new TV attack ad."
Propaganda from dKos is so useful to Republicans, that Murdoch is giving it wings.
There's been plenty of ill-advised fire on both sides but disappointing to see this kind of silliness from an influential figure like Kos. Will the A-List lefty bloggers ruin the netroots for November? Who would have guessed the combustible Atrios would be one of the few keeping his powder dry?
Makes me glad I'm a Z-Lister.
