That statement is as ridiculous as the one she made about his being black or white.

Yes...

I don't know if you realize it, but if your point is that she's a retard . . . well, be sure to say bienvenue to the extra chromosome.

DSTCHAOS is pretty spot-on - she's pointing out something pretty obvious (albeit maybe not something most white people like to confront), although it may have behooved her to take the extra step by pointing out that "hope and change" is particularly resonant because Obama is a younger, black male. For instance, Bill Richardson likely couldn't pull off the same message.

The more interesting issue, to me anyway, is the interaction between the Hispanic man's characterization of inter-minority interactions and feelings, in his mind, and the Clinton campaign's response - is this feeling broad, or just something pushed in this one particular quote?
