Drowning in a dwindling sea of white
by David Atkins
L.A. Times photographer Maeve Reston was at the Romney rally in Florida yesterday, and took this photo, which copyright restrictions don't allow me to paste.
So go look at it..
What do you see? Or, more precisely, what do you not see?
Mitt Romney may or may not squeak out this election against a vulnerable president. Probably not. But one thing is certain: this will be the last time anyone tries to do this. Many of those in that photograph won't be around to vote four years from now. And many more progressive voters will be in the ranks.
They'll try to paper it over with different looking candidates, but it will still be a losing proposition for them.
