Trent Lott. George Allen, and John Kerry are going have step it up if they want to keep pace with Biden:
In a critique of the Democratic field, he said of Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois: “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy,” he told the New York Observer, a weekly. “I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”

“You cannot go to a 7/11 or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”
