Both sides piss me off. I dont' like racists from either direction. Don't call me a racist and then tell me you're voting for someone because he's the same skin tone as you. And hell yes, I've met a number of folk with more melanin who told me that. I tend to sputter a little bit, but they don't see it as being racist. I had one expert tell me that 'Racist only counts when you're a white person discriminating against a black person". I calmly asked him if that was discrimination. And he said no.
