Awww. Ain't it sweet? The RNC wants to make sure its potentially sexist, racist attacks don't offend anybody! "The Republican National Committee has commissioned polling and focus groups to determine the boundaries of attacking a minority or female candidate, according to people involved. The secretive effort underscores the enormous risk senior GOP operatives see for a party often criticized for its insensitivity to minorities in campaigns dating back to the 1960s." How thoughtful!
