I did say "appears" (grin). Instead it will be decided by dirt bags
like Al Sharpton pontificating in front of the aforementioned cameras.


I read somewhere that Al Sharpton had really toned down his act recently
since he landed a steady job:

But in general, Mr. Sharpton, who has lost more than 80 pounds in the last
few years (through diet and exercise, he says), and wears his suits tailored
and his hair slicked back, has toned down his image and his rhetoric,
particularly since he came up for consideration for a hosting job. Shortly
before his MSNBC show began, he wrote a column in The Daily News expressing
regret for some of his actions during the Crown Heights race riots 20 years
ago. ("Our language and tone sometimes exacerbated tensions," he wrote.)
