Ferraro's comments to Breeze reporter launch controversy

Jim Farber's article Friday previewing Geraldine Ferraro's speech at Torrance's Armstrong Theatre last weekend has set off a firestorm across the Internet's most popular political forums. The controversy is based around this quote:

"If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position," she continued. "And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept."

Today, Obama's camp called on the Clinton camp to apologize and the mainstream media is all over the story.

Here's where the buzz is buzzing:

ABC's Political Punch
