Fascinating...
First, that Clinton makes yet another huge gaffe and it becomes Obama's problem?
Second, perhaps I have a slightly more rosy view of the American public. Or perhaps I have a Pollyanna-ish trust in most people's innate good sense.
Sure, lots of white folks voted for Hillary. Lots voted for Obama, too. It was, in point of fact, a difficult choice to make, given the similar nature of their policies. Does it automatically follow that all those hard working white folks who voted for Hillary are going to suddenly discover their policies are really much more closely aligned with John McCain and the Republican Party because Obama is the Democratic candidate?
Hardly, I would say, except perhaps in the minds of hysteria suffering pundits and spineless party operatives whose job it is to worry that somebody, somewhere, at some point in time, might have been offended.
