Donuts And Politics

Here is what Hillary said yesterday, making up some problem that Obama allegedly has:

“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.There’s a pattern emerging here,” she said.

Scuse me? Look at the exit polls and you’ll see that Obama actually improved his support among whites and those under $50,000 a year on Tuesday as compared to the results from Ohio and PA. More blathering idiocy from Clinton. A lot of people seem to be taking it as some sort of racial insinuation. Sheeesh.

This is a great quote from a Superdelegate who just came out in support of Obama today:

“There’s no ‘white working voter’ problem for Barack here,” Dahlman continued. “Yesterday, I was at the post office and I asked a retired welder - a union guy - if he was going to Billings tomorrow to see Bill [Clinton] and he said he didn’t think he should since he’s going to vote for Barack. And another guy - a young electrician - told me that he’s supporting Barack and working hard for him. The people I see on the street are all white and they have no problem voting for a man whose father is black. It’s what he stands for - he’s authentic, he isn’t pandering and he’s telling us the truth - that’s why people here are voting for him and that’s why he’ll win Montana.”
