One of the comments I heard from a Democratic sup****ter, on the radio here
in Atlanta, that also happened to be a long time worker in the Democratic
party and a minority.  The statement was that the Democratic Party has for
years taken Minorities for granted always counting on their vote and doing
very little for them.  Now that a minority candidate is a strong contender
the past administration (Clinton) can't re-write history and provide
reasons
that she should be considered over the minority candidate.

Another statement that was made by this person was that it was shameful
that
President Bush's administration placed more minorities in higher positions
than the Clinton Administration did in eight years.  I was surprised at
just
how angry some long time Democratic players are at Hillary or how they are
displacing resentment at Bill on Hillary's Campaign.
