to blame for his own words! It was proably one of the first intellectually honest things to come out of his mouth in public (even though it was behind closed doors!)since his campaign started. I'm sure the words were not carefully crafted as has been viruatlly every other platitude that has come out of his mouth to mirror the latest poll.
And I'm sick and tired of his sexist,arrogant attitude toward his opponent - now we know where his younger, particularly white male, supporters get their hate speech. I actually heard a white, middleage man at an Obama event yesterday, April 15th, on MSNBC, say to Obama that he thought Clinton's use of the word "elitist" actually was a little to close to the word "uppity," and he went on to say that was probably another racist statement by Clinton!
If that guy had any understanding of the word "elitist," he would not have needed to blame Clinton to defend Obama from his own words. And if he did understand the word "elitist," and still chose to attack Clinton as a racist, then I want out of the Democratic party - NOW!
