The South Carolina primary is over and it is time to congratulate Obama on his impressive win in the Palmetto state. Unfortunately the Clinton camp, or should I say Bill Clinton made things go from ugly to F-ugly when he made a comment comparing Barack to Jesse Jackson. This is just unacceptable and needs to be stopped now.
From The Political Note:
Said Bill Clinton today in Columbia, SC: "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here."
This was in response to a question about Obama saying it "took two people to beat him." Jackson had not been mentioned.
Boy, I can't understand why anyone would think the Clintons are running a race-baiting campaign to paint Obama as "the black candidate."
Yeah, thats a tough one to understand, just as hard to contemplate that people with a lust to win like Bill will pull out any gun in the arsenal, including race baiting.
