OH SHIT! Sharpton wants Hillary to explain her campaign's race baiting. . .

9. I've noticed that what you think has had no effect on the race so far. Do you think that;s going to
change?

31. I still don't get the accusation of race baiting in SC...
I have read as much as I can find on this and have found nothing to support it. I live here in SC. I watched the campaigns very closely. I read as much as I can. And for the life of me I have not seen any real evidence - only hype, not fact. Please, someone provide me with REAL, and I mean REAL evidence.

12. Oh yea........
The stupidest thing Obama can do is let Sharpton start in on 'race baiting'. If he doesn't shut him up then Obama's campaign will sink like a cement block.

26. I don't want to shut him up........
Hell.........I hope Sharpton keeps it up. He's well known for playing the 'race card' at every opportunity and he's a renowned racist. The longer he runs his mouth the more damage he does to Obama.

28. Hillary is most likely out of it so why do you want him to continue to damage Obama?
If he is going to be the nominee? Also, I don't think he damages Obama. Why do you think he damages Obama?

And until the fat lady sings it ain't over.

20. Obama doesn't control Sharpton
Sharpton isn't an Obama campaign surrogate.

You're confusing asking Sen. Clinton a legitimate question with being a pro-Obama surrogate.

25. Oh of course, I forgot.
I'm a black person and it (somewhat) amazed me how many on DU confused reactions of many blacks to the Clinton campaign tactics with reactions of the Obama campaign itself. The Obama campaign mostly ignored it except for an internal memo they sent that *some* Clinton supporters on DU latched on to.

I must remember that as a black person I am one and same with the Obama campaign, excuse me.

He's a racist and bigot.

17. Sharpton is not representing Obama
He is asking a question that many folks want answered. You can discredit Sharpton all you want, or you can address the question.

23. In fact, he endorsed Hillary last fall. Before Bubba went on teevee.
I think it caught Al offguard, as much as the rest of us.

24. I have a sneaking suspicion that he's one of the reasons the strategy she floated
about winning the election with the superdelegates and trying to steal some of Obama's pledged delegates has bombed and been utterly rejected.

29. I remember the sucker punch that Sharpton dealt Howard Dean in the debates.
So he can ball up his little fists and stomp his little feet all he wants. Opportunist.

33. I hope Sharpton doesn't makes a fool of himself.
COuld be Hillary's "sista Souljah" moment. I would find that as distasteful as I found Bill Clilnton's moment. And I say this as a die hard Hillary supporter.
