This is exactly what the Clintons wanted to see happen. They wanted him to be defined as a black candidate. That was the whole point of the S.C. primary nonsense with Bill comparing him to Jesse Jackson, etc. Other states with big black populations gave Obama big majorities too. This falls right into the Clintons hopes, that he’s just a black candidate. We’re supposed to look to Hillary as the default Dem. choice, apparently, with Obama and his pastor problems. She’s supposed to be a safer choice? She and Bill have so much baggage though...............
This was the race card that the Clintons didn’t want to play, just hint at, hoping that the conservatives would push it into the forefront. It didn’t work. So, they had to try again.
Obama’s speech was really to Hillary, he was throwing down the gauntlet, saying that the Democrats are really with me on the subject of race and white guilt. Obama was saying the heck with the general election, I’m fighting for the nomination, and you, (Hillary) aren’t going to win without the support of the far left and the Black voters.
