I think you may be right, and I certainly hope so.
The coming debates will certainly be very mismatched. In the past, the debates hardly seem to have made a difference, but I have a good feeling that this time will be different. If they are widely enough watched, Obama will have a great opportunity to put to rest all of the sloppy misconceptions about him that are being thrown around. It may do the trick.
One thing seems fairly certain: the end result of this election will be a big fat report card on just how racist this country really is.
