30. Sharpton played the race card and you can spin it
Edited on Tue Jan-13-04 11:05 AM by candy331
anyway you want but that is exactly what he did and he knows it and he counted on the response that Dean showed, in fact I would bet on it but he was shocked shit-less when Carol lashed him, he didn't expect that. Anyone taking this serious is just refusing to see the light and I thought was the mode of the other side. Surely you know that race is a sensitive issue and none of the candidates are comfortable talking about it. Dean showed complete maturity and superb skill in controlling himself in the situation, he could have attacked Sharpton and I'm sure people who are anti Dean would have been on Sharpton's side, but Dean gave respect to a person who deserved no respect in that instance. Sharpton showed himself to be the ass he is and lost any hope of gaining any respect that he sorely needed. Dean saw the wiser course by not attacking Shartpon and possibly alienating blacks and Sharpton supporters.
DEAN showed a sign of true Presidential skill {self control} and Sharpton and those who try to make anything else of it are the losers.
