Ask Not What Your Kennedy Can Do For You

Is Bill Clinton making enemies because of the perception that he is injecting race into the campaign? And is that perception a reality?  With the Ted Kennedy endorsement, I wonder if long-standing alliances are being broken.

Both the Clintons and their allies had pressed Mr. Kennedy for weeks to remain neutral, but Mr. Kennedy had become increasingly disenchanted with the tone of the Clinton campaign. He and former President Bill Clinton had a heated telephone exchange earlier this month over what Mr. Kennedy considered misleading statements by Mr. Clinton about Mr. Obama, as well as his injection of race into the campaign.      

Did Clinton purposely compare Obama to Jesse Jackson, or was he just ad-libbing? Is our first black president losing his blackness?
