Image management

This is a tough call.

Given the smears swirling out there about Obama's allegiance, I'm sure the campaign is sensitive to any image that might feed the "he's a muslim" crap. But still, it is sad that supporters have to be segregated in this fashion.

If I were in charge of the campaign I think I would tell people to relax about it. The smears are going to be there regardless of what you do, and treating supporters like this will just feed those smears anyway since it will give yet another opportunity for the media to talk about it.

Fortunately, this story suggests that this was a case of overzealous organizers rather than any official position from the campaign.
