Was Hillary channeling George Wallace?
Hillary's reckless exploitation of racial division could split the Democratic Party over race -- a tragic legacy for the Clintons.

  • Isn't Obama GAINING among white working class voters?

    If anything was clear out of this week's primaries, I thought it was that Obama was gaining support among whites, including those in the working class, and that his support appears to be climbing in almost every demographic.

    As an Indiana native (though I haven't lived there full-time since the 80s) I can't imagine that Obama could have stayed within 25k votes of Hillary like he did without serious white working class support (after all, Indiana is 91% white) And from reports I've heard from family, friend and the media there, a pretty significant number of Hillary votes were Operation Chaos-generated.
