Clinton touts support from 'white Americans'

"I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."

Madame Clinton, I assure you that you don't have my white American support. Perhaps I am too educated for your elite cadre of supporters.

Shit like this makes me feel physically ill.

I wonder if she really thought about how badly that would come across before she embraced it? For someone who's selling herself over Obama on the grounds of political experience, she makes a lot of stunning errors of judgement.

She's been saying a lot of stupid crap. It doesn't bode well, because it means she doesn't listen to the people in her campaign who should be telling her what not to say. Either they're afraid to talk to her, or she just doesn't care. Both reasons should give the voter pause.
