I think it was incredibly ineptly said, but not anything all that controversial if she hadn't fucked it up. She does pull bigger numbers than Obama among working class white voters - no argument there. Now, the idea that you can in any way translate primary voting patterns with general election voting patterns is a crock. And given her campaign's history to this point with racial signifiers, she needs to be a fuck of a lot more careful with her language. But I don't think there's anything substantive to it, and I hope the Obama camp doesn't take the bait and make it something.

Yeah. There's the obvious racial undertone, and given that I, a college-educated white person, heard the soundbite as I was pulling in to the park & ride to go to work, I also thought, "Excuse me, are you saying those of us who went to college don't work hard?"

do the new topic.

I ate my salad and an orange for lunch. am still hungry. I underate yesterday and now paying the price.

"Excuse me, are you saying those of us who went to college don't work hard?"

Well, college graduates are elitists, so we don't matter.

Really, the bestest, true Americans all live in the heartland anyway....
