"But, but, but Obama's just as bad! He brought up "Baking Cookies'!" =- Dishonest Idiocy.
How can any Clinton supporter honestly claim that Barack Obama did as much muck-raking as Hillary Clinton did last night? In reading the transcripts, it wasn't even close!

Hillary took every chance she could to take every cheap shot she could. The only time she restrained herself was when she was FORCED to admit that Obama could win the GE. She begged the press to keep bringing up Wright. She insisted that there was more to the Ayers story. She pushed her "bitter" meme.

And in comparison, Obama simply defended himself. He only brought up counterpoints to counter the bullshit being thrown his way.

And as for the baking cookies comment, it is beyond belief that Clinton supporters would call that an attack. He freaking defended her. He said that the media and the RW twisted her persona into something she wasn't. He specifically said she wasn't being elitist when she made that comment. He told the world that Hillary Clinton was a BETTER person than the media made her out to be.

He defended her.

Just like he defended her Bosnia gaffe by saying everyone makes mistakes. He was a class act.

Only one candidate on that stage acted like a true Democrat.

Barack Obama.

Hillary can continue to sleep with the morally repugnant, right wing, base, dishonest creeps she surrounds herself with. Her behavior is an embarassment.

1. I think both candidates are less than ideal
We've managed to separate the chaff from the wheat. I yearn for Edwards or Dennis and I chomp at the bit for an Al Gore candidacy. He's a surefire, slam dunk winner!

Brokered convention? Write in Al Gore.

3. Yes, if those used to power and privilege can't honestly win, suppress the vote!
:eyes:

Washington Beltway wall of mirrors is "going nuts."

Who's out of touch now? ===> HRC, "the machine" democrats, and their lapdogs in the M$M.

5. And here's the biggest rub: There was a way for her to defend him and lift herself above it all.
She would have scored huge points.

But instead she chooses to get dirtier and fling shit.

She never learns.

6. First shit fling was Obama's race card going into a 60% black state - SC
It worked to kill the momentum from her N?H win - so I guess his shit doesn't stink or stick to his hands.
