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.

Andrews used his wife as a placeholder for his House seat, which she won handily on Tuesday. She will presumably “step aside” and he’ll go back in January. No fuss, no muss. You can imagine what would happen if a Republican did that.

On another note, it is going to be 96 degrees here tomorrow, and very humid.

LOL. Of course she’ll do that. Lautenberg was involved in the other NJ switch, in 02 with Corrupticelli.

This whole nation is rife for a real revolution. Change I can believe in. And I don’t mean the Stalinist with the terrorist name, neither.

Yes, but I have a beach to go to.

The closest thing my sister has to a beach is the "Land Between the Lakes," where you can get a nice view of the nearby cooling tower.

Hopefully this will ensure Hillary will be denied a place on the ticket, and Obama will be assured of a place alongside George McGovern as one of the all-time Democrat losers.

What a load.

Remember, the Clinton machine is backing Obama's now.

Thanks for the ping. I saw this story earlier today in our local paper. I have no doubt that Andrews is telling the truth, but his unwillingness to reveal the caller’s name makes his story look less credible. He just comes across as an attention-seeker.
