4. That has been the strategy since NH...
...when Hillary made this contest about race.

Her comment about Johnson being "important too" in the civil rights movement appeared
to minimize MLK's role--as Hillary tried to emphasis the point that it also takes
a seasoned President to enact big changes. Hillary's comment ignited off a firestorm in the black community. Since
then, this contest has been about race.

Does anyone actually believe this isn't orchestrated?

I would also say that Hillary leaving the state is a further attempt to make this
entirely about race. If she stays and campaigns, she will garner more support--and a close
outcome will not solidify Obama as the "black candidate".

That's what the Clintons are doing.

Rove's got nothing on these scumbags.
