POLITICKIN w/ ARI BERMANClinton-Obama

With two Democratic primaries hanging in the balance tomorrow in Indiana and North Carolina, it's do-or-die time (once again) for the former Ms. Inevitable-turned hopeful Comeback Kid, Hillary Clinton, as we watch the former hopeful and current frontrunner Barack Obama fighting the perception that he's turning into some kind of great black hopeless, under a barrage of Clintonian salvos, mainstream media clubfootness, and an assist from the Wright wing.

Pull up a musical chair and set a spell--

it's hokey pokey time again for the endless donkey race of 2008.
