and it is worrying, in the sense a lot of whites will probably vote for him, because they will think he is "one of them".

In fact, I think he's unique.

But seriously, folks, 1% is a minority, after all.

There are also a couple people who might be Hispanic, and since it's a conservative crowd you can expect half the people there to be closeted gays.

My bad: the guy has his head bent down and he has brown hair. I fail at racial identification forever.

He's in a red shirt, to the right of the Secret Service guy in the suit, another minority. The third is the Secret Service guy in the doorway, upper right.

You know anybody with brown or black skin is going to get a ringside seat for this dog and pony show to prove the GOP aint an exclusive club for scared old white people.

This show drew one.

He'll never siphon off the black vote and I suspect he'll not be getting the Latino nod either.

Has there ever been a really large pan of Rmoney's audiences? Everyone's stuffed as close together like sardines but I bet if there were a real pan of the building, there'd be a few empty holes.
