Charlie Rangel on the Dumbest Things Hillary Clinton Has Said

After Hillary Clinton's statement to USA Today on March 7 that she was more electable than Barack Obama among "white voters," from The Politico:

The statement was “the dumbest thing she could have said,” Rangel told reporters before a Clinton fundraiser in a midtown hotel ballroom Saturday.

After Hillary Clinton's May 24 interview with the editorial board of the Sioux Falls Argus Leader in which she referenced Robert F. Kennedy's assassination, from Bloomberg News:

One of her leading supporters, Representative Charles Rangel of New York, assailed her for that comment, calling it ``the dumbest thing you could have possibly said.''

Is Mr.Rangel still supporting Clinton? If so, Why? I think there will be a challenger for her Senate seat. She's a real embarrassment for New Yorkers. If it weren't for Bill she'd just be another First Lady.

CHARLIE RANGEL HAS BEEN A 'LAP-DOG' FOR HILLARY THROUGHOUT THIS CAMPAIGN.

HE IS AS INSINCERE AND PHONY AS IS HILLARY.

RANGEL WILL ONLY LEARN HIS LESSON WHEN THE VOTERS RETIRE HIM.

Charlie Rangle is Clinton's penultimate black bobble head. As such what else can he do but repetitively bobble to Hillary's beat. His association with this race baiting abomination has resulted in the paradox of rising to the most powerful chairmanship in the house of representatives while at once diminishing in stature. One hopes that one day Adam Powell's apparition will take him and his buddy Butts behind the Abysinnia woodshed and give them the whooping they deserve.

I simply can't understand how you people can be so dumb. Isn't there anyone where with a lick of sense?

I supported Edwards. I called for him in 2004. I supported him in 2008. I NEVER supported either one of the others. I will vote for whomever the Democrats nominate since I hate the Rethuglicans, and despise McSlug. However, you people could have nominated Edwards and wiped the Rethugs out in November. Instead, you chose to fritter away an obvious massacre of Rethuglicans by carrying on a half a year of internecine bickering between Hillary and Obama. You've treated Hillary terribly because she is a woman, and you can't stand the idea of a woman getting the nomination, and you've lionized Obama, even though he has just as many problems as she does. Get over it. Whoever is the nominee HAS TO WIN. The SUPREME COURT, YOU IDIOTS. THE SUPREME COURT. THE SUPREME COURT. THE SUPREME COURT.

Stop the stupidity and start making nice with each other before you blow the whole thing and elect McSlug.

Not a chance! Not many Hillary supporters will beable to vote Obama in the fall. I'm afraid we may be in for at least 4 more years of republican rule. Why ---- because the media and others wanted to pick this race for us. Many fell into the trap and its looking grim for the only canidate that could have won in the fall. The DNC has shot its self in the foot with the mess they have made out of Fl.and Mi. They better seat the votes as casted or we are in for a long long 4 years.

Hillary is a Les-Wannabe President. I wish Maria Shriver ran! Obama has my vote over the old goat. I hope Obama picks Edwards for VP! Yahooooooo!!!!

I have a problem with the Obama Supporters. The problem is quite clear, respect. The Respect for States that did not even finish casting their ballots, the Obama supporters have none. Charlie Rangle was deluged with angry black Americans from his district to have Senator Clinton step down now and I am sure these demands were not respectful. I also have a problem with the DNC Meeting, I did not see one Hispanic on that board. Equality, I do not think there is equality within the DNC, they do not respect voters either. I have had quite enough of the Obama Supporters and radical reporting in the interent. We were not allowed to hear ideas and solutions because of the drowning out of the opinion radicals and the color of ones skin. It is not about the color of one's skin, it is about how in the hell are going to get out of the mess we are in. I will not for Obama because he lacks the true leadership skills of problem solving. I will be taking my vote somewhere else. If this special interest group wants to take over the DNC, take it! The Democratic Party used to be for everyone, it is no more.
