You two only say that because you're white heterosexual males.

CNN: Clinton touts support from 'white Americans'

"I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," Clinton said in an interview with USA TODAY.

Clinton cited an Associated Press poll "that found how Senator 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."

"There's a pattern emerging here," she said.

My identity politics comment was aimed at Sharpton, who looks about as black as I do when we switch our lens to class politics. Anyone who promotes the idea that "the only authentic black folks are those that come from the ghetto" needs to disappear from public view.

Just so we're clear: It wasn't really Al Sharpton in the song.

But I agree.  I'm not a fan of Sharpton as a person.

As a presidential candidate, I love him.  Absolutely hilarious in 2004.  Nobody does one-liners like him.

Gotta score that Cracker Vote in West Virginia.

Did anyone doubt she'd do it?

I find it sad, honestly.  She didn't have to go out like this.  What a sad, small human being.

No kidding.  Just a few days ago my neo-con dad was giving me the "It's time for identity politics to die a fiery death" spiel.

I know.  But you have to understand: As white heterosexual males, our sole purpose on this planet is to do everything within our power to preserve the dominance of white heterosexual males.

Or something.
