This whole argument just drives me crazy.  So much for transcending race or the post-racial candidate.  Race is as big as an issue as any in this current campaign.  According to the linked article, if Hillary Clinton says she's "more electable" that is some kind of secret code for "I'm more electable because I am white".  This is such and complete and utter bullshit.  Why is the fact that 90% of blacks are voting for the black candidate not considered racist?  I guess the black people are only voting for Obama because they have an indepth understanding of his policies as they compare to Hillary.  I am sure that their vote has nothing at all to do wtih the fact that the candidate is black.  They didn't even know that he was black in this post-racial world we live in.  They must be much smarter than white people who are only voting for the white candidate.  If white working class voters are turning out for Hillary, well it's just common sense that it must be racism at play? 

Never mind all of the other issues that might make those voters support Hillary.  Maybe those voters have a problem with all of the anti-American issues surrounding Obama from the flag pin, to his wife's opinion that she wasn't proud of her country until her husband won some primaries, to the fact that he was a member of a church for 20 years that preached God Damn America, US of the KKK A, and says that AIDS and drugs were a government conspiracy to hurt the black community.  Maybe they have a problem voting for a candidate who condescends to explain that their "bitterness" is the reason they cling to God, guns and antipathy for people who aren't like them. 

Maybe they want to support a candidate that they feel will best represent them and their interest.  Whether you agree or disagree that the summer gasoline tax is pandering or not, many people are taking a huge hit at the pumps and would prefer a candidate that is trying to address this issue and bring some relief even if it's small and not a long term solution. 

I am sure that there are a small minority of white voters who will not vote for the black candidate regardless of the issues.  I also am sure that there is a small minority of black voters that will not vote for the white candidate regardless of the issues.  Acting like one candidate's supporters transcend race and the other candidate's supporters are racist is a complete distortion of reality.
