Andrews says he heard racist strategy from Clinton camp
Star-Ledger ^ | June 6, 2008 | Josh Margolin

U.S. Rep. Rob Andrews, who supported Hillary Clinton throughout the primary season, disclosed he received a phone call shortly before the April 22 Pennsylvania primary from a top member of Clinton's organization and that the caller explicitly discussed a strategy of winning over Jewish voters by exploiting tensions between Jews and African-Americans.

"There have been signals coming out of the Clinton campaign that have racial overtones that indeed disturb me," Andrews said at his campaign headquarters in Cherry Hill Tuesday night after he lost his bid for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination.

So our “first black president” and the potential “next” black president both appear to be racists?

That is certainly disappointing.

Racist Democrats! Who would have thought it considering their pristine background of Slavery, Jim Crow Laws, and the KKK.

Never saw that one coming!

Not surprising. It's all about power for Hillary the sociopath. She would never put the country before herself.

Obama minions in the press getting ready for something...you can tell.

A lot of the back room dirt and sleaze of the Clinton campaign will now be coming to light for the express purpose of keeping her off the ticket.

I had forgotten about about the NJ Senate primary. Sen LOUSE-enberg easily won the primary over Rob Andrews. I didn’t even know the election was this past Tuesday. I guess Andrews gave up his House seat to challenge the ancient senator. Bad move. So now NJ almost certainly will get another term for the senator who opposes the death penalty for terrorists.

We don't.

And if any Obama campaign operative/employee is discovered to be engaged in it, Obama will just wave his hands, say that isn't the person he knew, and it will be over.

Anyone who thinks politicians don’t very closely look at racial and ethnic make-ups of various areas is quite naive. Of course the clintons and obama are working this angle; though Hillary was quite open about the ‘white vote,’ she was also correct in that she can get it much more easily than Obama. It is sad that saying something that is probably true gets one in so much trouble.

Obama has already lied to Jewish voters. He has already caved on his promise to support keeping Jerusalem undivided.

20 years after he leaves office.

More Blue State blues on the way, courtesy of the corrupt NJ democrat machine.

The Rodent establishment really stuck it to Andrews. So I don’t fault him at all for revealing this. He’s learned the hard way what kind of people run his party.

Here is a preview of things to come:

http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/06/obama-confronts.html

Obama apparently man-handled Joe Lieberman on the Senate floor today and the Drive Bys and libs are gleeful!
(Video at site)

This is Obama’s idea of working in a bipartisan manner I guess.......Bullying a Jewish man that dares to tell the truth on the Senate floor about Obama Hussein’s record on Israel!!
