Playing The Race Card Card

Frustrated with the total absence of racial fear-mongering from the McCain campaign and unable to accuse of him of playing "the race card", Obama himself has decided to play "the race card card".
“They know that you’re not real happy with them and so the only way they figure they’re going to win this election is if they make you scared of me,” Obama continued, repeating an attack from earlier in the day. “What they’re saying is ‘Well, we know we’re not very good but you can’t risk electing Obama. You know, he’s new, he doesn’t look like the other presidents on the currency, he’s a got a funny name.’”
I defy our liberal readers to provide us with one solitary example of the McCain campaign playing the race card in anyway. Obama tried to do the same thing just weeks ago:
“It is going to be very difficult for Republicans to run on their stewardship of the economy or their outstanding foreign policy,” Obama told a fundraiser in Jacksonville, Florida. “We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run. They’re going to try to make you afraid.
“They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?”
The only person obsessed with Obama's blackness seems to be Obama. So, again, a challenge to our liberal commrades out there: Provide us with proof that McCain is playing the race card.
