Clinton campaign death watch (contd)

Liberal NY Times columnist Bob Herbert, in response to Senator Clinton's suggestions that Barack Obama is having and will have a hard time getting the votes of white Americans:

"The Clintons have never understood how to exit the stage gracefully. Their repertoire has always been deficient in grace and class...But it’s one thing to lack class and a sense of grace, quite another to deliberately try and wreck the presidential prospects of your party’s likely nominee — and to do it in a way that has the potential to undermine the substantial racial progress that has been made in this country over many years. The Clintons should be ashamed of themselves. But they long ago proved to the world that they have no shame."
