Forget the popcorn; it might take a good cigar and a brimming snifter to fully appreciate the warfare that's breaking out in Dem ranks. Who could have predicted that Keith Olbermann would be accusing a Clinton team member of a "clearly racist" statement evoking the apartheid era in South Africa? And yet . . .
On this evening's Countdown, Olbermann was discussing with Newsweek's Howard Fineman Geraldine Ferraro's remarks about Obama and the way the Clinton campaign, far from denouncing her, sent out campaign manager Maggie Williams to try to turn the tables, accusing Obama of "false, personal and politically calculated attacks" for having the audacity to complain.
View video here.
HOWARD FINEMAN: It's clear to me the Clinton people aren't going to back down. As you saw, they sent Maggie Williams out with a statement to defend Geraldine Ferraro who's defending herself. So this is the fight the Clintons want, the way they want to fight it.
KEITH OLBERMANN: So the senator wants a clearly racist, clearly equal-opportunity-is-not-a-good-thing, that's-the-only-reason-he's-here kind of statement interjected into the campaign? It's not just somebody not judging a negative to something? This right now, this reaction right now is intentional?
And a bit later, discussing the Clinton campaign strategy.

Sit back and enjoy the internecine warfare ping to Today show list.
Cat fight!
Keith Olberman is a fascist, he seeks to silence all who disagree that he is a septic tank with a mouth.
Olbermann, you’re such a PC asshat....like so many sports idiots
one of the white race’s worst offending race baiters
let’s feed them to the lions
It’s “the politics of personal destruction”. The Clintons insisting that Obama is nothing except a skin color.
anyone else with Uberlib’s ratings would be canceled. But Uberlib has the correct political views for DNC TV.
I think you are going soft on Olberman.
At least once a day I go to the Olbermann and take a Olbermann, and wipe my Olbermann with Olbermann paper … and flush the Olbermann. ;-)
Sorry, I just can’t stand this guy … why, oh, why is he still on TV.
He even aggravates fellow superlib Dan Abrahms so you know he must be truly obnoxious.
Exactly.
Yeah !! Sure !! Right !! NOT IN YOUR WILDEST DREAM !!! GET REAL, PEOPLE !!!
liberals calling each other racists. what a world
Obnoxious! I know diseases that are called obnoxious and I would prefer them over Olbermann. ;-)
LOL!
>> let’s feed them to the lions
Why would you want to poison a perfectly good lion?
Let’s feed them to the wood chipper.
well what if it was John Edwards vs hillary?
Olbermann is an idiot, but someone has to take Ferraro to task for her statement.
The ‘Rats are tipping their hand early. If Obama is the nominee, literally EVERYTHING that a Republican says against Obama will be declared racist.
