Team-Hillary's ugly race-based response to the Richardson endorsement.

[RBInMaine]

They say the Richardson endorsement doesn't mean much because Texas is over and so he can't help with the Hispanic vote there. Oh geez. So Richardson can only help with Hispanics?? No whites support him in his state of NM despite his huge approval ratings? No whites (or blacks, or Asians, or Native Americans, ....) anywhere else admire him? With all that vast experience, much from his Clinton admin. positions, he is only of value in courting Hispanics??

More UGLY CRAPOLA from Team-Hillary and one more reason to say NO to Hillary in this primary!!

1. It was very clear they didn't value him at all, except for the demographics

he might have brought. I have never seen such ungracious, shabby treatment in politics. They really oughta be ashamed, but they're shameless.

30. EVERYBODY who don't like Obama is RACIST!!!!!

They're RACIST RACIST RACIST RACIST RACIST

[slinkerwink]

17. this shows that the clintons are about the politics of racial division

[LVjinx]

24. Don't suppose there's a link to show the Clinton campaign actually said this?

Didn't think so. Besides, Clinton won the latino vote even when Richardson was in the race - they don't like him.

[Cha]

3. Shhhh...we're not allowed to say

that hilary uses racist language or we will be forever known as SEXIST! Bring IT!

[krkaufman]

4. Yep, that's what I took from Penn's comment: "What good is Richardson, if there aren't any Latinos..

"... to which to pander?"

Rather than respecting Richardson as a Democratic leader, Penn speaks on behalf of the Clinton campaign and effectively says Richardson is only good for attracting Latino voters.

Noice!

[krkaufman]

5. But, hey, don't say Penn's comment was racist, whatever you do!!

Wouldn't wanna offend the delicate ones.

6. kick

[crankychatter]

7. yes i noticed

dead on correct

[davidpdx]

8. I've heard Hillary supporters claim Richardson's endorsement

was all about race. Not on here mind you, but on another board. It's stuff like that which makes you wonder why people would say that.

[catgirl]

9. The Clintons will step on anyone to get ahead

They've insulted Obama's voters (dumb! I guess they knew they wouldn't make it
to the general), they stepped on his endorsers (so much for SD switches) and they've
pounced on his donors. And they think they'll be good at uniting the country and
regaining our country's good reputation.?

[bigtree]

10. He said NOTHING about Hispanics

THIS post is a race-based response though . . . What bullshit.

[greguganus]

11. It's her Scorched Party strategy. Leave no race behind. n/t

[crankychatter]

12. looks to me like a handful of racists and posers are gaming this board

damn shame too

I am looking for resources and a lively discussion of the facts...

people tell me it will calm down later... but some of these posters are long term members

Makes me think I'm better off at a blog for African Americans

makes ME feel very unwelcome

[QC]

16. There's a lot of very transparent trolls running around this place lately, too. n/t

[stillcool]

20. I think it's a case of the

crying baby getting the milk. These people have to have led very sheltered lives. Reminds me of the little town that I grew up in where 25 years later the same person is sitting on the same bar stool, so afraid of change. Their illusions of grandeur and their self-importance are safe and secure as long as they are not forced to travel outside of their comfort zone. I guess it must feel good to have that false sense of security, but they sure miss out on life.

13. Hillary 50 states in 2008, don't let this chance slip by.

[Medusa]

15. Oh that's funny.

[MethuenProgressive]

14. "race-based"?

The OP is race baiting.

[LVjinx]

25. We're not supposed to point out Obama supporters are the biggest race-baiters around

[Hepburn]

18. Yep....

...Gov Richardson is now relegated by the Clinton campaign to some pile of "brown people who really do not count anymore." She and Bill would have used him as a Hispanic if he had endorsed her...but now to them, he is a brown Judas who does not matter ~~ as I see their despicable treatment of him.

The ingrained racism and bigotry of the Clintons which was revealed during her now failed run for the Dem nomination has truly been appalling. Especially to see Bill Clinton, someone I greatly admired, revealing himself as a closet racist is a very sad thing to see.

JMHO

[Sparkly]

19. Who's "they" and what's the direct quote?

And some votes ARE "race-based," and I don't think that's necessarily "ugly."

[Johnny__Motown]

21. I think it was Wolfie.... and it was dismissive at best, could easily be seen as insulting

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

22. don't forget, he killed Jesus too!

hes a Judas, says Carville, and he's proud of saying this filth.

[niceypoo]

23. This is a race baiting thread

Mirror, meet face

[cooolandrew]

26. It really is like HRC wants to destroy her career good and proper. Not the best way to obtain votes.

[Skidmore]

27. I prefer to say NO to Hillary for

any office.

[Az_lefty]

28. they thought of him as their token Hispanic...

the Clinton's can go to Hell, they are as phony as can be.

[Ysabel]

31. the clinton team is incredibly naive...

- as well as short-sighted and narrow-minded...

[KaptBunnyPants]

32. We're all just unimportant minorities.

Richardson's not important, he's just a Hispanic. They don't need Hispanics any more. Smearing Black churches isn't important, because those are just black people. They can win without black people. I'm not important, because I'm just a "liberal elitist", and they can win without liberal elitists. I guess she's just running to be the president of all the people who are useful to her at the time.
