Kantor's comments demolish Hillary's swing state argument once and forever [View All]

Think of what the GOP would do with "worthless white ni**er" in the general in places like Pennsylvania and Ohio. This was Bill Clinton's lead trade negotiatior after all. How easy it is to sell white working class jobs down the river when your Commerce Secretary has utter comtempt for those people.

White men are a hard enough sell for any Democratic candidate as it is. Just as Wright gives the racist an excuse not to vote for Obama, Kantor gives the guy who'd rather not vote for a woman the perfect "out." The 527's would have a field day with this.

This argument won't make it into the media, but it will certainly be used by Obama's campaign with SD's in behind-the-scenes electability discussions.
