Reverends Sharpton and Jackson are not in Obama's class - Bill and Hillary Clinton are.

"The Clintons want to portray Mr. Obama as a candidate with a narrowly racial appeal, both to undermine his larger and inspirational message of "unity," and also to play to whatever doubts still exist about an African-American candidate among Democratic voters.

It's going to be fascinating to see if Democrats and the press let the Clintons get away with this."

It looks like they may not get away with it this time. The Kennedy endorsements, Klintoon-fatigue at the NYT, ....time may finally be running out for Billary. But then I've thought that so many times in the past.......

BTW, where has Jesse Jackson been lately? Maybe I have missed it, but it seems to me that this is the longest period of time I can remember without hearing or seeing him interject himself into the news.

Also, I have to note that this is the first time I have heard of a liberal dissing Jackson.

Can we expect any less of the country’s first white trash president, er, I mean, first “black” president.

Liberal columnists who long idolized the Clintons are even writing more-in-sorrow-than-anger pieces asking how Bill and Hillary could descend to such deceptive tactics. Allow us to answer that lament this way: Our readers aren't surprised.

I think Bill and Hill are in Sharpton and Jackson’s class. Grifters think alike.

Dick Morris was right on the money explaining the ‘Toons strategy pre-S.C.

As Slate called it, the ‘Toons are trying to “ghettoize” Obama’s candidacy, as WSJ said, to marginalize his inspiration factor and to provoke a backlash among white Rat racists.
