When identities collide!

I think it was Rush yesterday asserting that Obama is a flawed candidate because he got the nomination by "identity politics." It was interesting to read this Chicago Tribune article about the smash-mouth identity politics going on in the DNC:

An African-American woman who is an Illinois delegate for Sen. Hillary Clinton maintained Monday that Senate President Emil Jones, a mentor of Sen. Barack Obama, called her an “Uncle Tom” at the Illinois hotel for the Democratic National Convention.
. . . .

“When the question of why Hillary Clinton supporters aren’t coming over (to Obama) and jumping up to joy comes up, this is not an isolated incident. This has been going on for months now. Now, here we are. Be gracious in victory.”
