According to dem Governor of Kansas, Kathleen Sebelius you are racist if you don’t vote for Obama!

HotAir.com mentions that Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius accused Republicans on Tuesday of injecting race into the presidential campaign, arguing that they are using “code language” to convince Midwesterners that Democrat Barack Obama is different from them. “Have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African-American?” Sebelius asked with sarcasm. “(Republicans) are not going to go lightly into the darkness.” Sebelius was responding to a question from the audience at the Iowa City Public Library about the tenacity of Democrats and whether they would fight for victory as hard as Republicans in the closing weeks of the election. She did not elaborate on her comment. Update: The AP or the Miami Herald has edited this article to remove the “(Republicans) will not go lightly into the darkness” quote. Fortunately, HotAir.com saved a cached version of the article here. It now reads:

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday that a belief among some voters that Democrat Barack Obama is different from them is hindering his campaign for president.

Asked at a brown-bag lunch at the local library why the campaign is neck-and-neck, Sebelius said “code language” raising doubts about Obama is invalid because his life experience “has a lot more to do with me and my family.”

“I think that the notion that, ‘By the way, have any of you noticed that Barack Obama is part African American?’ I think that is for a number of people difficult,” Sebelius said. “I think we need to talk about the fact that that is a real issue.”

Why is the AP and Miami Herald changing the original comments? Are they scared of being exposed as the biased leftists they are? Are they afraid that voters, who vote for the candidate who they think be best for the country will get a little ticked off by being labeled racists by the dems if they vote for John McCain? Hmmm.
