But mostly I think people were pissed off because she said out loud that race was an issue in this election, and for the most part we prefer not to say that out loud.


I think I agree with you. When I saw the demographics and polling (particularly the bit where 2 in 10 flat out said race was a factor) I thought, "and pretty much that's what Clinton just got pilloried for saying."

Below, cos points out that WV didn't break any differently than predicted - it was known that those demographics go for Clinton over Obama. :shrug: I certainly found it surprising that she hit that level of landslide, but can't pretend to have been paying a huge amount of attention.
