Thank You. You'll No Longer Be Needed

It wasn't just a 'late at night' misspeak - Arrogance drives her and eventually her (and his) rage and indignation overcomes years of manipulative posturing. Maybe they are just a Southern Racist and a pampered Goldwater Girl, at least to their surviving supporters:
"Senator Clinton continues to demonstrate that she has what it takes to win the Presidency ... while Senator Obama does well in areas and demographic groups that the Democratic nominee will win anyway," - [Rep. Debbie] Wasserman-Schultz.

And Paul Begala on CNN

BEGALA: The challenge now for Barack, both the key to the primary and the general election for Barack will now be white, working class voters. At the very, very beginning, of this entire election season, Lou, you and I and a bunch of us all got together in New York and talked about what the election will be about and I said then and I say it again tonight. My advice to Barack Obama is put the jam on the lower shelf where the little folk can reach it. In other words, talk more about those blue collar, economic populist issues that John Edwards first raised and now Hillary Clinton is raising so effectively. If he can do that, he'll hold this wonderful base built but he needs to reach out now to the white working-class voters and means a different message than he generally talks about. He's got to stop with all the arguments for the Volvo drivin', NPR totebag totin' liberals, he needs to talk to middle class working people.

"We can't win with eggheads and African-Americans."
