Cafferty: Should Hillary Clinton try to "sound like blacks"?
Edited on Tue Apr-24-07 04:12 PM by Bluebear
Or compare herself to Harriet Tubman? (The "sound like blacks", whatever that means, hearkens back to her speech last month at the African-American church.)

And THAT is his scintillating poll question du jour.

1. Should Bush try to sound like a Texan? Or compare himself to...
George Washington?

5. That really doesn't sound faux-southern/black to me
especially compared to Bush's phony Texas twang.

9. She did live in Arkansas for longer than Bush lived in Texas...
Born in Ct, educated at an elite Eastern boarding school, Yale and Harvard. Deserted the National Guard and hid out in Alabama, passed out in a Tiajuana whorehouse...am I missing anything?
