DEMOCRATS & RACE

1.14.2008


Based on the media coverage this back and forth over MLK and race between Clinton and Obama's camps is becoming the issue going into South Carolina. Why am I not surprised that race takes the front stage in the S.C.?
Ultimately this hurts Clinton more than Obama, but it hurts Democrats in the long run. That is unless they go overboard and white female sympathy for Hills makes a comeback. They will also turn away Dems of any race who feel Obama's supporters are complaining about every word that could possibly be construed as racist. Republicans are salivating over this. They don't have any candidates that the people find more interesting than these two, so they only hope they have is that the Dems do themselves in, which let's face it, is their specialty.
