I can’t imagine that she figured on this:
NEW YORK, N.Y. —The Politico- [1] Dogged by continuing racial tensions around her presidential campaign, Hillary Rodham Clinton [2] drew a smattering of boos on Monday when she spoke at a religiously tinged Martin Luther King Jr. rally put together by a union organizing predominantly black security workers.
The catcalls came when Clinton was introduced and her speech drew only tepid applause compared to the boisterous ovations drawn by many of the pastors and reverends — not to mention a hip-hop artist and slam poet — who took the podium before her.
[3]Look, bogus or not, this race card thing was one she started toying with, and it jumped up and bit her. She’s paying the price now. In her defense I will say that this is the result of the pander-bear politics the Democrats as a whole and the Clintons in particular have been waging for decades, now. The current situation smacks to me of a certain level of justice, thereby.
There’s this, too; I cannot believe she didn’t understand that those kind of politics would eventually backfire. The unique tone-deafness she’s demonstrated here would seem to negate any other qualifications she might have for the office… which in our opinion were slim to begin with.
I suppose we can take all of this as an indication of how she’ll do in Michigan.
Addendum: (David L)
Mrs. Clinton has a problem. He is called B.J.. Mrs. Clinton is not a strong enough candidate to run without B.J. but having B.J. campaign in an already polarized election is like bringing Al Sharpton to an anti-crime rally. The more B.J. talks, the deeper he digs the hole [4] for Mrs. Clinton.
