I got a kick outta Juan Williams last night on Fox. He said Sharpton's meager showing in SC, 25% of black vote, shows that the blacks are being 'verrry series' about whom they want for the nomination. HA!

C'mon Juan... don't feed us this sh_t! They got the word from the plantation boss on what to do in the voting booth.

Al Sharpton has plucked a page from the playbook of the Long dynasty of Louisiana, and made it uniquely his own. First make out your rivals as oppressors, then you are the "little man" fighting on the side of "the people". Unfortunately for the Reverend, this does not play as well in 2004 as it did in 1934. The current definition of "the people" includes a lot who cannot or will not stray off the plantation.
