The point about the silly CD sent out by Mike Huckabee's former campaign manager, now hoping to head the Republican Party aparatus in the country, is not whether it rises to the level of indictable offense. It's simply a mirror on the Republican Party.
Imagine a Democrat, trying to distance himself from Joe Lieberman, writing a song that made fund of the senator becauser he's Jewish and sending it to the Democratic Party power structure in America. Hard to imagine? Of course, because he'd know that he'd be on tricky ground with a large number of Jews with influence in the Democratic Party.
That Huckabee's guy had no such concern about writing about Obama the Magic Negro says a little about his taste, but it speaks volumes about the Republican Party. He could distribute his ditty with almost no fear that an influential black Republican would object. If you're scrambling for the top in the Republican Party in 2008, you don't need to worry a lot about losing the black vote.
