OMG ROFLMAO
Clinton said Wednesday:
I'm sorry, but I don't think that JUST hard-working white Americans are the key to winning elections. First of all there are a lot of lazy white Americans, not to mention hard-working and lazy blacks, and hard-working and lazy hispanics, and hard-working and lazy asians, and hard-working and lazy... you get the point. Oh, and one more group. Don't forget the people who are more hard-working than lazy people and more lazy than the hard-working people.
I might be in that group.
Anywho.
As Wil Wheaton says*, I do believe Clinton has turned into the psycho ex-girlfriend of the DNC.

“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” she said in the interview, citing an article by The Associated Press.
It “found how Senator 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.
...
“These are the people you have to win if you’re a Democrat in sufficient numbers to actually win the election. Everybody knows that,” she said in the interview.

Moxie,
thanks for that. A finer example of projection on the part of Obamabots would be very hard to find.
BTW: Will Wheaton, himself, didn't say "I do believe Clinton has turned into the psycho ex-girlfriend of the DNC." He was simply quoting a post from Reddit. While he may agree with the sentiment, he's not responsible for the quote.
Which raises a troubling question: exactly how accurate ~are~ the quotes you use? Speaking for myself and while it may seem like nit-picking, with emotions so involved in this Clinton/Obama dispute among Democrats, wouldn't it be best to double-check when attributing quotes? The flames are going so well now, I doubt they require additional gasoline.
Troubling question? Excuse me? When have you ever known me not to point people in the direction where I got something?
I read the phrase "psycho ex-girlfriend" on Wil's blog. I linked back to the exact post entitled "hillary clinton: the psycho ex-girlfriend of the democratic party". I did not put quotes around "I do believe Clinton has turned into the psycho ex-girlfriend of the DNC" because quotes suggest they are the full statement. I was paraphrasing the overall sentiment.
You and I have never been adversarial in the past, but if you would like to go through the items I DO quote to see if you can pull some sort of "GOTCHA!" on me, go right ahead. Let me know what you find.
