Making the decision to lead a civil right’s march across a bridge in segregation era Selma, Alabama for equal and fair treatment was easier than telling team Clinton that you are supporting the manifestation of the “Dream.” Damn what kind of mojo do the Clinton’s possess? Watch John Lewis speak about his defection to team Obama. I blogged over a week ago that team Hillary lost influential Negro Mafia Member congressman John Lewis (D-GA). I guess Lewis’ constiuents spoke louder than the Clintons and he listened. Or, maybe, Lewis remembered his roots as a young civil rights activist often at odds with the movement’s older more conservative leadership. Now that the icon has made his decision, he needs to work on the rest of his people in the Congressional Black Caucus. See Maxine Waters.

I take it you truly revile Lewis since you denounce his choosing to side with the populist vote of the state. Or is it that you just follow Clinton that closely that any decision against her is perceived as Wrong and Evil?
No. I think you mistake my sarcasm for Hillary support. Wrong. I agree with the voters. As I am one of those voters. See my superdelegate blog.
Oops. Sorry then. The “Negro Mafia Member” reference threw me.
LOL!
