David Wright, the Mets' slugging third baseman, preferred talking politics to baseball after his choke-prone team blew a last chance at the playoffs Sunday. That night, Wright, a Republican who has dined with President Bush at the White House, was chatting with Kelly Hocklass, an African-American woman, at Duke's Sports Bar on East 19th Street. A spy said, "[Wright] professed his love for [John] McCain and 'hot hockey mom' [Sarah Palin] and then told [Hocklass], 'I'm a white boy from Virginia. Who do you think I'm voting for?' " Wright also told her, "You are being fooled by [Barack] Obama because of the color of your skin." But Hocklass told us the two were just joking around. "We were just having a conversation," she said. "I wear an Obama pin and said to him, 'Don't tell me you're a McCain supporter.' We started joking about being Democrat versus Republican.
