The opinions of some guys on RPGNet's Tangency board? There's conclusive evidence we can believe in!
I notice you didn't actually post a link to the thread in question. I can't imagine why not, so I'll rectify that for you.

What you neglected to mention, somehow, was that the actual thread was about "what is it about Obama that brings out wingnuts and conspiracy
theorists"; not "why do Republicans not like the Democratic nominee for President". I can't imagine why you didn't mention this; I mean,
other than the fact that it completely destroys the point you were trying to make. It's... I don't know... interesting, really, how you forget those little details. It is also notable that in the thread, several people take the viewpoint
that "it's nothing special about him, there's the same reaction to any Democrat who has a shot at winning" and make direct comparisons to
Bill Clinton (who is, as you may know, not black). References to "the far end of the bell curve" and "lunatic fringe" are liberally (har!)
peppered in the thread. Why, if I didn't know better, I'd say it's almost as if ECS was deliberately misrepresenting what was actually said in
order to reinforce his conspiracy theories.
But don't take my word for it. Look at the thread. Since there's actually a link now, as opposed to taking some guy's word for it.
