It would appear that Hillary Clinton is using the race card and it has not gone unnoticed by Rush Limbuagh. Either way, Clinton sounds like a right winger to me.
Here’s Hillary Clinton in USA Today:
“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article “that found how Sen. Obama’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me.”
“There’s a pattern emerging here,” she said.
And, Rush Limbaugh, who has previously thrown his support behind Hillary Clinton in an effort to affect the vote outcome against Obama has now thrown his support to Obama:
“I now believe he would be the weakest of the Democrat nominees,” Limbaugh, among the most powerful voices in conservative radio, said on his program. “I now urge the Democrat superdelegates to make your mind up and publicly go for Obama.”“Barack Obama has shown he cannot get the votes Democrats need to win — blue-collar, working-class people,” Limbaugh said. “He can get effete snobs, he can get wealthy academics, he can get the young, and he can get the black vote, but Democrats do not win with that.”
It’s pretty clear that something is amiss here. As I’ve noted before, Clinton is either in bed with the right wing noise machine or she’s being used by it. I think it is clear that the latter is the case. Hillary needs the right wing, and they want to use her to defeat her… That they share point of view is just an example of how close the central core is as well, IMO.
