An interesting thing just occurred. On MSNBC Chris Matthews, said (not verbatim mind you, cuz i'm not a stenogragpher) something to the effect of:

"And now, we going to see what role race had to play in this." And then, "Oh do we have to end the night this way? Do we have to talk about race? I guess we do. The things we do these days."

Chris, you're the guy doing the talking. If you don't want to, You. Dont. Have. To. Talk.About. Race.

Chris, if you don't wanna talk about it, you don't have to talk about it. And if someone says you do? Who? Who is that tells cable news what they have to talk about? Who are these puppetmasters?
