For those of you keeping track at home, this is the second time today Bubba’s had the race-card played against him.

CHICAGO (WLS) – Mayoral candidate Carol Moseley-Braun’s campaign is sharply criticizing President Bill Clinton’s endorsement Tuesday of Rahm Emanuel.

In a statement Wednesday, Braun’s camp called the former president’s endorsement of Emanuel a “betrayal” to African Americans and Latinos.

“President Bill Clinton does not live or vote in Chicago,” Braun press secretary Renee Ferguson said in a statement. “He’s an outsider parachuting in to support another outsider. For him to come on the day following Dr. Martin Luther King’s birthday to insert himself in the middle of a mayoral race, when the majority of the population and mayoral candidates are African American and Latino, is a betrayal of the people who were most loyal to him. It’s a mistake.”

Former mayoral candidate, Congressman Danny K. Davis, earlier contended Clinton’s endorsement of Emanuel could jeopardize his “long and fruitful relationship” with the black community. Clinton at one point had garnered the title “the first black president” due to his broad appeal to the African American community.
