The Obama campaign’s race-baiting has not just had repercussions on Hillary’s presidential run, but also in the state she represents in the Senate:
TV writer Cinque Henderson writes an insightful piece in The New Republic titled “Maybe We Can’t – The black case for Obama-skepticism.” In it, he talks about the fact that he is a minority within the minority – a black man who supports Hillary Clinton, and points out, as other writers (including yours truly) have, about how the Obama campaign played the race card in SC. He also slams Obama himself for his race speech in Philadelphia. Snippets:
As has been written numerous times by many serious-minded political junkies/media watchers, over, including myself, the mainstream media’s hand-holding, pillow-offering coverage of Barack Obama’s candidacy is representative of a staggering dereliction of duty on the part of the people we are supposed to be able to trust to give us fair, unbiased news coverage. You’d think that it couldn’t possibly get any more biased than it already is, right?
I’ve written here before about race-baiting Democrats and how they routinely get away with saying and doing things that would get a Republican laughed out of a campaign or political office.
I’ve read at some blogs that Obama’s “former” pastor Jeremiah Wright is on a “rehab” tour to restore his image, but I wouldn’t call it that because as far as many of the groups he’s talking to are concerned, there’s no rehab or restoration needed. They love him. And he’s eating it up.
