(* Unless superdelegates take the nomination away from him because of the color of his skin)

“Nominate me because I am white.” It has been Hillary Clinton’s strategy for awhile. She tried to let the crazy Rev. Wright clips do it for her. Now she is coming out and saying it.

“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on,” she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article “that found how Sen. 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.

At the same time that Clinton tries to take the nomination away from him because of race, she uses civil rights as a reason to count the votes in Florida and Michigan.

“I will be sending a letter to Sen. Obama and [Democratic National Committee] Chairman [Howard] Dean expressing my strong belief that this issue about the voters in Florida and Michigan is a civil rights issue,” Clinton said. “And we need to stand up and say the Democratic Party is smart enough to figure out how make sure we don’t disenfranchise two states we have to win.”

Just when the media thinks they are out… the Clintons pull them back in.
