Nope, No Racists Here. Move Along

This is in reference to The Rominee's main surrogate, the greasy ooze named John Sununu (a horrible sleazeball person the choice of whom says much about Mitt Romney) claiming Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama because they share a skin color. The speaker is a Republican (or, shall I say, a conservative: there's a difference nowadays), Powell's former chief of staff.

It came on the same day, I believe, that Mr Romney corralled the most important endorsement of them all. Has anyone said it came because of dermatologic similarities? (Not that it didn't, of course.)
