Hillary Only Now Rediscovers Whitey

Clinton makes case for wide appeal
Hillary Rodham Clinton vowed Wednesday to continue her quest for the Democratic nomination, arguing she would be the stronger nominee because she appeals to a wider coalition of voters — including whites who have not supported Barack Obama in recent contests.

"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.

Yep, a pattern. It may be a pattern of remembering "working, hard-working Americans, white Americans" are due representation as well as all others. Pandering has its problems, as Hillary is finding out. It's a pattern of Democrats, when about to lose, rediscovering the rest of America.
