Hillary is arrogant, not racist

so says Eugene Robinson in a column today entitled The Card Clinton is Playing As per usual with Robinson, as those who watch him on MS-NBC know, he offers keen insight and an ability to sum things up precisely. Note especially his penultimate paragraph:
Clinton's sin isn't racism, it's arrogance. From the beginning, the Clinton campaign has refused to consider the possibility that Obama's success was more than a fad. This was supposed to be Clinton's year, and if Obama was winning primaries, there had to be some reason that had nothing to do with merit. It was because he was black, or because he had better slogans, or because he was a better public speaker, or because he was the media's darling. This new business about white voters is just the latest story the Clinton campaign is telling itself about the usurper named Obama.
Just the latest story. . .
