Is how Democratic strategist Paul Begala described Barack Obama’s base of supporters, saying that the party could not win with that constituency alone.

Said Hillary Clinton in a USA Today interview:

“I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on.” As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article “that found how Sen. Obama’s support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me.”

“There’s a pattern emerging here.”

Meanwhile in Washington D.C., a number of ‘persons of spurious intellectual pretensions,’ out of touch with real-life concerns, denounced the comments and reaffirmed their support for Obama.
