Quasi-Racist

Nick Confessore says that Republican reaction to Herseth's victory in South Dakota is quasi-racist:

Something similarly offensive is going on when Rep. Tom Davis, (R-Va.), the former National Republican Campaign Committee Chairman, says of Stephanie Herseth's narrow win in South Dakota, "If you take out the Indian reservation, we would have won."

I wonder if that tag applies equally to Kos, whose post concerning the same topic was titled "Native Americans deliver SD to Herseth."

UPDATE: That's weird. Josh Marshall has essentially repeated Confessore's post, a day later. Too bad he doesn't mention Kos' post either (maybe he doesn't read other blogs).
