Democrats: Slow Learners

Democrats are just now figuring out what Republicans have known all along.

YESTERDAY, I had a vicious anti-Clinton chain e-mail forwarded to me. By a Democrat.

The e-mail has circulated for years among the right wing; it outlines a conspiratorial case against the Clintons that includes accusations of the murder of their close friends Ron Brown and Vince Foster.

This Democrat rejected the murder charges, of course. But it was clear that the rest of the message - that the Clintons are divisive, dishonest and only concerned with themselves - struck a nerve with my e-mailer, who received it from a liberal friend.

Bill Clinton's recent antics in South Carolina are unlikely to reverse these bad feelings.

In response to a reporter's question about the Clintons' double-teaming Barack Obama, the former president answered with this non sequitur: "Jesse Jackson won South Carolina in '84 and '88. Jackson ran a good campaign. And Obama ran a good campaign here."
