Hostin Blames ‘White-Lash’ on ‘Most Qualified Candidate Ever' Losing
See if this makes any sense to you. America votes for a black man for President, two election cycles in a row. Along comes a former First Lady, secretary of state and senator, rife with scandals and baggage, who fails to win two presidential election cycles in a row (and just happens to be white).
