Of course it will be the line of attack. What else can they conjure up? And since much of the public is ready to act upon their prejudices and, without regard for truth, call these men racists people just jump on it like a hog on slop.
Isn't it amazing that racism can be levied so quickly on one person because of the prejudices of the other. Amazing... simply amazing.
