I think the theory is that "racist" has become a buzzword in the eyes of American Conservatives, and when used by Liberals it looks bad because it seems like it's only trying to score political points rather than legitimate judgment.

I don't necessarily agree with the theory, but I believe that's the idea.

Edit: Or I should say--I actually do agree with the theory as presented here, but disagree with the notion that it's a fundamental limitation. (ie. You just have to say "he's a racist because X, Y, and Z")
