Yet another chapter in the ongoing saga of why Hillary Clinton should have just shut up a while back
"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."
Thanks. Thanks so much, Senator. That's what we really need down here in the South, some damn fucking Yankee trying to rile up the ignorant cracker vote for his or her own political gain.
It's over. Fuck respect, fuck politeness, and fuck you Mrs. Clinton. You got that? You steal this fucking nomination and I'm abstaining from the fucking presidential election, got it? Fucking John McCain isn't this bad. Wide appeal? Your idea of wide appeal is fucking race-baiting. You can't see how anyone interprets your comments as racially divisive? Here's how: your whole argument for your imaginary shot at being elected is now based on racism, on your equation of "hard-working" and white Americans and your accompanying blatant pander to less-educated Americans. As a well-educated, hard-working, white American in the South, I don't care for your tone, miss. We have enough work left trying to heal the scars of our divided heritage down here without you coming along, and for the sake of your fragile and inflated ego (like a balloon, ready to pop) trying to use the strategies the Republicans adopted from the Dixiecrats to get your undeserving ass into the White House.
Because of your stupid, dishonest, self-serving, invidious, oblivious comments, you've convinced me, Mrs. Clinton: I will not vote for you in 2008. I will not vote for you in 2012. I will not vote for you in 2016. Don't ask for my vote, don't think you have a chance with me. You're not just done, you're burnt and ready to be scraped off into the trash. You've turned me into one of your foaming-at-the-mouth enemies you're always on about, congratulations. Nice job. Fuck off.

Dammit, Eric, I nearly choked on a mouthful of grits (Yes, I eat grit for breakfast here in the great white north. Cheese grits, actually).
Rile up the ignorant cracker vote - by God, I'd love to hear that line on the news this morning.
But, yeah, she's done and the only way forward for her is to start fighting just as dirty as possible.
