FRIDAY, JUNE 06, 2008 | Superdelegate Rob Andrews Knocks Clinton on Racial Campaign Tactics
More proof that the Clinton Campaign's "kitchen sink" strategy led by bad, sad Sister Maggie Williams purposely included a racially divisive tactic. From: http://www.nj.com/...
A Democratic superdelegate from New Jersey says he is worried that unifying the party behind Barack Obama may be difficult because the Clinton camp "has engaged in some very divisive tactics and rhetoric it should not have."
Rep. Rob Andrews, who supported Hillary Clinton throughout the primary season, disclosed he received a phone call shortly before the April 22 Pennsylvania primary from a top member of Clinton's organization and that the caller explicitly discussed a strategy of winning over Jewish voters by exploiting tensions between Jews and African-Americans.
"There have been signals coming out of the Clinton campaign that have racial overtones that indeed disturb me," Andrews said at his campaign headquarters in Cherry Hill Tuesday night after he lost his bid for the U.S. Senate nomination. "Frankly, I had a private conversation with a high-ranking person in the campaign ... that used a racial line of argument that I found very disconcerting. It was extremely disconcerting given the rank of this person. It was very disturbing."
I guess that proves the old adage: even if you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
