, I assume it's also safe to say that those who think he was being racist, felt the same about Bill Clinton when commenting on Obama's SC victory said, "Jessie Jackson won South Carolina too." Did you instinctively think he was racist too?

Many people did. It's a little different because he's making a statment about demographics, and in that case race is relevant. It's not racist to say that blacks support Barack Obama more than whites do. But the comment did make me wince a bit.
