La Dulce De Democrats

You gotta love it if you are a democrat or a liberal.

Only when a female candidate and a African American candidate run for the same office do you get division along gender and racial line. Like the comedian Simrnoff said, 'What a country'!

Here a excerpt from Slate:

'Both Obama and Clinton have developed durable and loyal constituencies. Clinton has secured less-affluent voters and white women, and Obama has built support from liberals, younger voters, and African-Americans. Because the loyalties map along gender and racial lines, the potential for volatility increases, as supporters interpret an attack on the candidate as an attack on themselves. At times, you can sort Obama and Clinton supporters by their grievances—those who were offended when Obama said Clinton was "likable enough" or others who took umbrage when Bill Clinton compared Obama to Jesse Jackson'
