Reply #5: The conversation in my workplace breakroom today was just staggering. [View All]

It's a very diverse workplace, and everyone was just batting around how shocked they are at the Clintons. It was a raucous conversation in which dozens were involved. The talk of the town.

It's as if they've convinced themselves that the Whole World Isn't Actually Watching. They really do appear that out-of-touch, like nobody's picking up on this. In fact, everyone is. Even working, hard-working, white, black and hispanic Americans at a hotel. I have a feeling they don't realize that.

Or... this is all a set-up, a ploy to manufacture "outrage" so they can turn around and say to the voters of West Virginia and Kentucky, "See, they're calling you racist! They think we're racists! They're playing the race card on us! They think they're better than you."

This hypothesis was proposed by the most un-political folk you could imagine at my workplace today. And I haven't heard a single high-paid political pundit bring it up yet.

If there's one good thing that's going to come out of this, it's that the American worker has become incredibly politically savvy. It's awesome, if you ask me. The national conversation is a good one, and the result will not be what the Clintons expect.
