Hillary’s New Strategy: Vote White

Filed under: 08 Election, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton — MFunk @ 3:09 pm

In her typically inept way, Hillary illuminated us to her new strategy to sway the superdelegates in an interview with USA Today. It can be summed up in two words: Vote White.

This video highlights the core of her message:

There we have it - despite what actual voting trends show, namely that Obama benefits from overwhelming Democratic turnout compared to the GOP, and that he’s gaining more ground in demographics traditionally less favorable to him, Hillary is the white candidate who white people like.

It goes without saying that the Democratic Party best silence her, and silence her now. Her strident and uncouth statements strike a sore spot in the American psyche, one that the Democratic Party has striven hard to heal and relies on holding together. Whereas before, the tact of the Party seemed to have been to let her run out of steam somewhere in early June, it is becoming increasingly clear that its body politic might be critically injured by then.

Life imitates art, and with Hillary laying her factious plans bare, I offer to you, my readership, and to whatever superdelegates might be watching, a sample of what Hillary’s campaign will be like the next few weeks:

Do not click here. Like Hillary, it’s an aggravating, repetitive, empty-headed sequence of racial divisions - between “uneducated whites” and, as Hill-advisor Paul Begala called them, “eggheads and African-Americans” - that goes on forever until someone forces it to stop.

Do not click it. Instead write your local superdelegate to urge them to shut that annoying nonsense down for good by shutting down Hillary.

  1. Her latest reasoning seems to be “We are a racist nation and therefore we should not nominate a black man.”

  2. The only broad base Hillary has is her backside. And anyone who would even suggest a dual ticket with Obama and Clinton should be shot. She is becoming an insult to every American by her yammering attempts at division. She should no longed be embarassed but ashamed. I would not want her representing me in front of the world if these are her true attitudes. I would vote for a woman for President — just not this woman!
