Racially charged feud over Senate race in California spills into Democratic convention

California’s racially charged all-Democrat Senate race has spilled onto the Democratic National Convention as the candidates continued to feud over President Obama’s endorsement of one over the other.

Attorney General Kamala Harris, the recipient of Mr. Obama’s blessing, said Monday that she thought Rep. Loretta Sanchez should apologize to the president for suggesting that race played a role in the endorsement. Ms. Harris is black and Ms. Sanchez Hispanic.

“I find it very troubling, and I think that that is not the voice or perspective of a leader,” Ms. Harris told Fox11 in Los Angeles.

“Especially in these times, where if you want to be a leader, you should understand it’s in the best interest of our country to bring people together, not divide them, and certainly not based on race,” Ms. Harris said. “I frankly think she should apologize to the president of the United States.”

We need to inflame the natural divisions in the rat coalition.

The democrat party dream is to uniote blacks and Hispanics against whites. It may not work, as blacks and Hispanics don’t necessarily get along.

This one is going to boil over on its own. Blacks and Hispanics are not going to be willing to share power in that party. The Harris and Sanchez fight is gonna get nasty and will be racially charged.

So it looks as if California is about to unleash another doozy of a senator on the country.

You are being kind. The animus between the groups is very strong. The only reason they get along is they hate whites more then each other. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and all that.

Race did play a part in this choice. Democrats are famous for making Latinos take the back seat.

I don’t live in California so a pox on both. That said, other than her connection to Obama, maybe Harris is a bit smarter than Sanchez? Who’s less racist? Less bigoted? Or, who might be better beat by a Republican?

I feel for you guys and that stupid top two open primary nonsense that goes on in the People's Republic of Kalifornia. Personally, I'd rather write my dog in than a Democrat, which is what I will be doing for Congress here, where the a-hole Democrat runs unopposed.

They are all that will remain of the Democratic party based on recent trends. Sad, all the fight to eliminate race as a factor and we instead have a party basing nearly every aspect of its being on race.

The only reason Sanchez is where she is—cheating Bob Dorn aka *B52 Bob* out of his seat.

Great, know I might have to Vote for the White Hispanic in the Race, an I've NEVER Voted for a Rat in my entire Life.

The Primary system in CA sucks. The Republicans never even make it to the General Election. It's like we have a Parliamentary System.

BTW - Kamala the Kommie is only Black when it helps her Politically, just like Sanchez is only Hispanic when it helps her Politically. That's how Sanchez beat Dornan.

At Least Sanchez looks more genuinely Hispanic than Kamala looks genuinely Black. Of course they both Married White Boys. What a coincidence.

Kamala Harris is another joke of a politician. Good for nothing, accomplishes little, against what the people want or need, supports criminals and disses victims of crime. Is it any wonder Obama supports her? I fear for our nation if she wins the Senate race.
