I think you are being much to superficial on this one. I agree completely with your overriding point that she acted foolishly and clumsily. But was there some legitimacy here?

I hope that, in the interest of fairness, after calling Gerry a clown, you plan to put together a piece about J. Wright, Obama's mentor, pastor and spiritual "father" for 20 years? I'd ask you to look at some of the cases presented and put together a piece that more fairly addresses the way in which race has played, and been played, in this primary.

Best regards.

Josh,

I love your work and I will continue to love your work. But I think you are being much to superficial on this one. I agree completely with your overriding point that she acted foolishly and clumsily. But was there some legitimacy here?

Check out this well-researched, if densely written, piece:

It's weak on explaining Bill's S. Carolina misstep, but makes a strong case otherwise. Even the Wall Street Journal is catching on.

She would be a joke if she wasn't so offensive.
