Title: Sharpton to Bill Clinton: 'Shut Up'

ABC News' Rick Klein Reports: Rev. Al Sharpton on Monday weighed in on the raging debate inside the Democratic Party over former President Bill Clinton's advocacy on behalf of his wife's campaign, with two choice words for the former president: "Shut up."

On ABC's "The View," Sharpton said voters are hearing "race charges, race-tinged rhetoric" in the Democratic primary campaign, and called on the former president to cease.

"I think it's time for him to just be quiet," said Sharpton, who was a Democratic presidential candidate in 2004. "I think it's time for him to stop. As one of the most outspoken people in America, there's a time to shut up, and I think that time has come."

Oh gosh this is getting good. Liberal suck-ass Democrats eating each other up!
The best part is the hypocritical elitist Clintons are getting their asses publicly handed to them.

There is nothing better than watching liberal scum self-immolate.

Bill is a master of just ignoring all criticism, he knows all they need is a big win or any victory over Obama for the national media to fall back in line.


The question is: is it too late for the dems to salvage Hillary?

but the facts still remain: Hillary has far more delegates than Obama currently. She is winning.. and by a big number.

Normally, but there have been times when he showed some temper about being criticized...he comes off like a little kid, he doesn't do indignant well.

With what 4-5% of total delegates accounted for and the national media turning against her?  She is ahead - I wouldn't say she's winning.

well, what i saw today was she had 269 (roughly) delegates and Obama only has 100something..  I think when it gets to the west coast, Hillary is getting most of the money and probably the majority of the delegates.

in the south, wow.. i have no idea. i have no clue who will pick those up on either side.

She needs over 2,000 to get the nomination so the race is in its infancy. Over 1,000 will be dicided on Super Tuesday. It could be that the uncommited at the convention will pick the nominee because I do not see Obama or Hillary dropping out.

oh yeah, they have a long way to go.. i guess i just keep my eye on who has the most delegates so far, and let the press just squabble between themselves over 'what it all means' every second of every day.

otherwise, i'd think mcCain was the leader right now for the GOP..

Pretty sad that it took something as major as a Presidential election to get Britney off the news every 10 minutes.

Bless her heart.....she really needs help.

(that was a 4-syllable "bless" for those wondering... :-))

Does that count Michigan and Florida? If I recall it does not but I heard she was fighting for them in that typical underhanded Clintoon way.  ::)

i thought they were not counting Michigan and Florida cause those states had been sanctioned?

Hilary is definitely trying to get those delegates seated in August, but I dont think there's been an answer to it yet.

That's what I understand. I just didn't know if those deligates counted in Hill's lead or not. Just curious.
