WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrat Barack Obama, the only black candidate for president, accused rival Hillary Clinton on Friday of hiding behind her gender after she was pummelled in a debate with six male candidates.
"I am assuming and I hope that Sen. Clinton wants to be treated like everybody else," the Illinois senator said in an interview with NBC's "Today Show."

She digs deep for democRat votes!
LOL, THE ENTIRE DEM ELECTION IS GOING TO BE THE RACE CARD AND THE GENDER CARD. THIS IS RICH.
Exactly. I hate how the media is compelled to point out the blindingly obvious. As though we’ve somehow forgotten that hill (allegedly) is female or obama is black. To most of us, those things just don’t matter. I think they do it just to continue to emphasize to all us poor, ignorant folks that these “qualifications” matter.
No kidding. They both should understand something. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
I predict that hillary will blurt out the "n" word in public the next few weeks. She is too unstable to be the leader of this country.
I certainly predict she will have a full fledged meltdown on national TV
Looks like Botox only goes so far!
If Obama wanted to play the race card, there it is. I'd like to see the press tie themselves in knots, trying to explain how Hillary misspoke and didn't mean anything racist.
That's some SERIOUS jewelry she's sporting. Did the NYC Chinese waiters buy it for her? Or just the Chinese?
“Obama chides Clinton for playing gender card” as he threw in the Race card.
By the articles I’ve on FR, I won’t be surprised about that. The only thing is how bad she will act when she blows.
I’m betting on meltdown
There's a "Huma" or "Monica" joke there somewhere...
Well, if it involves Huma, there would be carpet mun..... involved
Rush says that the Drive-Bys are not happy...Mrs. Clinton doesn’t have the talent to lie like Bubba. She’s not going to get away with this hedging for the next 13 months. Rush says that the bloom is off the rose—she just doesn’t have it!
We shall see.
If the media ever truly decides not to provide cover for her...she's toast.
Rush says that right now they are very disappointed in her. However, if she does well in the next debate, he says they will be cheering with—what a comeback!
Is that her latest lover?
Must be a klintoon thing, only going after young women.
Has he really been saying that? (”Vote for me to prove you’re not a bigot”?) I suppose I’ve just missed it, it’s not like I go out of my way to listen to Obama, but it had been my impression he was trying to go for the quiet unassuming statesman pose, the few times I’ve seen him talk I didn’t really get the Jackson/Sharpton vibe from him.
Qwinn
Race card beats gender card.........it’s in the game rules.
