Breaking my original oath, but...
Published by Panda on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 at 4:58 PMThis will only make sense if you watched the Democratic debate in Ohio, where Hillary was really big on making Barack "reject" an endorsement from Farrakhan, even though Obama had just said that he emphatically denounces Farrakhan's anti-Semitic comments. That being said, this from the NYTimes:
For the last two days, Ms. Ferraro has been sharply criticized for comments she made last week that suggested Mr. Obama had succeeded as far as he had because he was black.Tsk, tsk. Does this mean denounce > reject?
“If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position,” she told the Daily Breeze, a newspaper in Torrance, Calif.
...
Mrs. Clinton said yesterday that she “rejected” Ms. Ferraro’s original comments. But questions persisted about why she had not denounced them more sharply and whether they actually worked to the Clinton camp’s advantage with white voters.
