Here's some "end to old partisan divisions and race politics" as promised by Obama...(except when it is expedient)
"COLUMBIA, S.C. – The highest-ranking black congressman said Thursday that opposition to the federal stimulus package by southern GOP governors is "a slap in the face of African-Americans."
U.S. Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., said he was insulted when the governors of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and his home state, which have large black populations, said they might not accept some of the money from the $787 billion stimulus package."

Seeing how Nancy Pelosi's stimulus bill has NO money aimed at Chocolate "Katrina" City, maybe Congressman Clyburn should start talking to his own leadership, that is, if he has the guts.
