Their actions are so typical and so expected, that their support for Hillary Clinton was/is part of how these handkerchief heads keep getting re-elected: they take the safest position possible which does not require them to THINK too much and which they can continue to scame gullible black folks, who make up most of their districts, into believing that they have their best interest at heart. So during the early days of this primary run they made their choices, confident that Barack Obama could be used to reflect the diversity of the Democratic Party, only to be discarded when he couldn't win, so that they could claim to be on the right side of this race to stay in Miss Hillary's good graces.<br/><br/>They are in a predictament that I truly am relishing watching: they picked Hillary because it was safe, but now that she is losing you don't hear too much from them why? They are scared. Scared to admit they are the go-along-get-along Negroes many of us think they are and will say and do anything to maintain their positions. Now what do they do? Scratch their head and roll their eyes? They are still scared to step up because by hook or crook Hillary just might end up winning the primary and Lordy, Lordy, we don't want Miss Ann... excuse me, Miss Hillary mad at us.<br/><br/>They are getting what they deserve and I hope the citizens of their districts see what many of us have seen for a long time: Handkerchief Head Negroes (HHN).

They are in a predictament that I truly am relishing watching: they picked Hillary because it was safe, but now that she is losing you don’t hear too much from them why? They are scared. Scared to admit they are the go-along-get-along Negroes many of us think they are and will say and do anything to maintain their positions. Now what do they do?

They are still scared to step up because by hook or crook Hillary just might end up winning the primary and Lordy, Lordy, we don’t want Miss Ann… excuse me, Miss Hillary mad at us.

They are getting what they deserve and I hope the citizens of their districts see what many of us have seen for a long time: Handkerchief Head Negroes (HHN).

I can understand how someone might have started this long primary journey as a Clinton supporter. I’d like to briefly share my journey…just some of the highlights:

> I began as a Clinton supporter — their platforms are similar, but Clinton has “more” experience
(Although, I was concerned that she voted for the war.)

> Then, Obama spoke to my heart in Iowa — something Hillary has never done

> Then, Bill Clinton compared Obama to Jesse Jackson and discounted his win in S.C. — what??

> Then, Obama renounced Reverend Wright’s words, but not the man — what integrity!!
(This is when I became a full-fledged Obama supporter.)

> Then, Hillary Clinton brought up the “hard working, white people” — so what am I??

> Then, Obama more fully renounced Wright – diplomatically, firmly, painfully

> Then, Hillary decided to not count caucus states and add in FL and MI — huh??what??

> Most recently, Hillary Clinton made her most horrible mistake. Invoking assassination as a reason for staying in the race was bad. But, failing to see the need to truly apologize for her words is far worse.

She’s starting to remind me of George W. Bush…she’s the “decider,” can do no wrong and wants to win at any cost. Her politics are divisive, her message feeds on misery and her actions throughout this campaign are not something to emulate.

Please vote based on what you believe is best for this country. That is what I’m going to do.

Best Regards,

She is one of HHH's national co-chairs and we have frequently seen her on national TV criticizing Obama. She was out there criticizing him on Rev. Wright and "bittergate". And she is an ineffective surrogate because she is just ignorant. She and her sons played in the Hoya Lawya basketball game and her sons are just as ignorant as she is. Tubbs Jones is a lost cause.

Edolphus Towns
