On the NJ Governor's Race

A worker for one of the NJ gubernatorial campaigns stopped at our door this morning. He had some literature, and wanted to share the good news about his preferred candidate with me. But he asked for “Yadu”, who was the previous resident. When I explained that basic fact, his comment was that I didn’t look like a Yadu.

I’m conflicted. Was that simply an insensitive comment, or was it racist?

And he was with the Corzine campaign.
