Clinton's racist innuendo and class warfare.

Eugene Robinson provides a glimpse into the arrogance of the Clinton camp in a Washington Post Editorial.

He makes good points.

I see the Democratic nomination serving as a proxy for the general election: Obama is taking the role of Democrat and Clinton is being forced into the role of Republican.

Based on the groups Clinton is pandering to (white low-income workers) and the innuendo she's spinning (only she can win with whites, viz., racist) this race could probably do without John McCain.

It's no wonder that Rush Limbaugh wants Hillary on the ticket: The election would be a choice between White(McCain) and Off White (Clinton). Either way the Right would get a candidate that's a know variable. Certainty is like air to the right.

Obama represents something outside the control of the right wing. He represents a new direction.

This scares the hell out of the Clinton camp. Conservatives may be reaping what they've sown for the past 30 years---a backlash.
