CNN's Acosta to Romney: 'If You Somehow Beat Obama,' How Would You 'Assure Blacks You'd Be Their President Also?'

Via Newsbusters.

CNN's Jim Acosta on Tuesday's Situation Room asked what many will think was a truly offensive question.

"If you were to somehow beat the first African-American president, what would you say to the black community to assure them that you would be their president also?"

JIM ACOSTA, CNN: African-Americans have a tremendous sense of pride that there is the first African-American president in the White House. If you were to somehow beat the first African-American president, what would you say to the black community to assure them that you would be their president also?

The first thing that should grab your eye is the word "somehow."

Somehow?

The economy stinks, the right-track/wrong-track numbers are upside-down, and the polls show a very tight race.

As such, how does Acosta think Romney winning is a long shot?

But even more offensive was asking how the Republican presidential nominee would "assure" blacks he's "their president also."

Did Romney only represent whites when he was governor of Massachusetts? Does Obama currently only represent blacks?

Hey Jim,  if you ever managed to report objectively, how would you convince people that you have changed from being a biased hack?
