If...

If last Tuesday, Pennsylvania white voters showed their racist side by overwhelmingly choosing Hillary over Obama, what exactly does that say about blacks who voted for Barack by an even wider margin...?

Just-a-wandering...

It's truly a shame the Democratic primary race has sunk to such lows as measuring race metrics to try to detect racial bias, especially in view of the promising transformative unity of last winter when we were all Democrats.

First Obama fans accused Hillary of using some hidden racist code when she harmlessly compared herself to Johnson and Obama to King; and then they chided New Hampshire voters for lying when cheery poll numbers didn't bear fruit with an Obama win.

Talk Left writes that Rep. Joe Clyburn of South Carolina who was instrumental in ratcheting the racist rhetoric in South Carolina is up to his "old tricks."

I heard something, the first time yesterday (in South Carolina), and I heard it on the (House) floor today, which is telling me there are African Americans who have reached the decision that the Clintons know that she can’t win this. But they’re hell-bound to make it impossible for Obama to win.
Big Tent Democrat spanks Clyburn and writes, "He sounds like a crazy conspiracy theorist. He does Obama no good. He does him harm. Rep. Clyburn, you need to step away from the microphone please."

Indeed, it's garbage like this that begat the howler's ire, and for which she never forgot or forgave. One day her grandchildren will be of mixed heritage and God help the child who'll have her own without people like Clyburn jading their life on earth with garbage.

Good post.
 
Thank you. There's nothing I hate more than someone sanctimoniously trying to manipulate white guilt to garner votes. It's as bad as "bubba" racism -- whether in the North or South.
