One Campaign Over?

What is the expected fate of a Presidential Primary candidate who said:

In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian-Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a 7/11 or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.

What if he also said about candidate Barak Obama:

I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.” I mean, that’s a storybook, man.

If he were a Republican, you would expect this clown to be going down in flames faster than the Hindenberg.

Imagine if Mitt Romney, or even media favorite John McCain, implied that an articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking black guy was some sort of fairy tale come true. They'd be crucified. (Granted they'd probably have mixed feelings about doing it to McCain).

But the clown who said these things is a Democrat. I expect this will pass with little media notice.
