[thucydides]

When the democrats on the Judiciary Committee were trying to trash Clarence Thomas, the first overnight polls showed an extremely negative reaction to them among black voters. They promptly cancelled the hearings and moved to confirm. Now there do not appear to have been any polls taken on black reactions to the democrats treatment of Rice, but this column suggests they would be about the same. I believe the democrats have done themselves considerable damage among their essential black constituency - in addition to other voters that will have been alienated by their obvious vanity, partisanship, and concern to gain political points at the expense of national security.
