Towards the end of the 2nd hour of her Air America show tonight, Rachel Maddow denounced and rejected Governor Mike Easley's use of the word 'pansy' in his endorsement of Hillary Clinton today. Maddow also noted her disappointment that her fellow commentators on MSNBC's Race for the Whitehouse just chuckled at the joke Easley made.
Rachel made it clear that in her opinion, Hillary had just lost the 'pansy vote' of which she considered herself a part (though it doesn't sound like she is ready to endorse Obama yet.)
This continues the pattern of Hillary or her surrogates dismissing, demeaning, or disrespecting the constituents that make up the base support of the Democratic party. Whether it is race-baiting remarks, slamming Move-On, calling Barack's well off and well educated supporters elitist, or now "the pansy vote" it seems that soon the only voters that Hillary will treat as if they matter are the Fox News viewers she'll be courting on the Bill O'Reilly show tomorrow.
