Steve Clemons is 100 percent right. It’s cowardly, timid, stupid, and seems to be part of an ongoing record of bending over backward on Muslim issues.
It appears that he still is trying to run from, not confront, allegations that he is a Muslim himself.
In my opinion, as I’ve blogged before, he needs to confront the question, not run away. He needs to call out the bigotry that says there’s something wrong with being Muslim.
Muslims may not vote for McCain, but they can always stay at home. And in swing-state Michigan and Pennsylvania, that has to be a concern.
