And you know what Republicans will say?

That this is Obama's fault...

...51 percent of Americans now express explicit anti-black attitudes, compared with 48 percent in a similar 2008 survey. When measured by an implicit racial attitudes test, the number of Americans with anti-black sentiments jumped to 56 percent, up from 49 percent during the last presidential election. In both tests, the share of Americans expressing pro-black attitudes fell.

Yes, and we all know how the 'dog-whistles' have really been allowed to go essentially unchallenged.

Which means the Republicans will not just say it's Obama's fault they'll say it is because he's "lazy" or "arrogant" or "un-American" and the media filter will just let that go...unchallenged.
