(CNN) -- The most powerful African-American in
Congress again scolded former President Bill Clinton
for his comments during the Democratic presidential
race.
And he said he's concerned that the venomous nature
of the campaign might create wounds that won't heal
before the general election in November.
House Majority Whip James Clyburn, D-South
Carolina, told CNN Friday that Bill Clinton's comments
on the "race card" before Pennsylvania's April 22
primary upset him.
Clinton's tone in a phone interview, said
Clyburn, "caused people to say things to me [about
Clinton] that I never thought I would hear."
In that interview the former president said, among
other things, that the Obama campaign "played the
race card on me."
After the phone interview but before he hung up,
Clinton was recorded saying: "I don't think I should
take any s*** from anybody on that, do you?"
