I know John Lewis said something to this effect this week, but it just seemed crazy to actually compare the two.
I did not say fire hoses or bombings. I think anyone can see the tone of this election has definitely changed.

Well, what did you have in mind when you said you immediately thought of integration in the deep south? What was the comparison you were making?

I don't see that the tone has changed in regard to race. I see the media giving coverage to some nuts who have probably been there all along. And again, I see Obama leading in the polls. How is that a set back?
