For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: Will Ludacris's new "song" hurt Obama?

While hip-hop fans are expected to be a factor in the November election, the song is not. "Hip-hoppers and black folks understand the game," said Jeff Johnson, an activist and host of an upcoming news and public affairs show on Black Entertainment Television. "They're thinking, 'An Obama who knows how to play the game is still better for me than a McCain.'"

Thoughts?
