Hillary Advisers! Use The Scott McClennan Book! Don't Ignore It

[Median Democrat]

Who is paying Hillary's advisers these days? She has an excellent chance to appear like a Democratic leader, and express the outrage that many of us share in the latest disclosure of how the Bush Aministration mis-lead the American people into war, and she takes a pass?!?!

Terry McCauliff, c'mon man! This is a great chance for Hillary to rise above the fray, and sound like a general election candidate in the manner that Obama did when he took on Bush and McCain, and Hillary takes a pass?

I mean this is a chance for Hillary to step up to the plate and condemn the decision to go to war in Iraq, as well as the deceptions of the Bush administration. I mean I can understand the fact that McCain is ducking the issue, but why is Hillary doing the same thing? At least Obama is saying the obvious, but this is Hillary's chance to rally the base. Instead, Terry McCaullife is telling her to ignore questions?

Any of the other Hillary supporters on this board could call this one with braille. McClennan just laid a bombshell. Its time for Hillary to step and condemn the Bush administration's actions in misleading the U.S. into war.

1. She can't. She agreed with the administration in the run-up to the war....she's in a box

2. BS...Hillary Needs To Mobilize Her Supporters By Dinging Bush!

Seriously, what the heck gives? Scott McClennan's book is controlling the headlines for a day, and Hillary's campaign does not say squat. Worse, McCaullife has her ducking questions? Hillary needs to fire her campaign staff, because it creates the mis-impression that she is sucking up to Right Wing that has been ripping into Obama. This is Hillary's chance to take a leadership role!

Any other Hillary supporters agree with me? How should Hillary handle Scott McClennan's book? I say that she can go far more aggressive than Obama.

4. You answered your own question

"it creates the mis-impression that she is sucking up to Right Wing"


She's sucked up with the likes of Rupert Murdoch and Richard Mellon Scaife already.


She's accepting advice from the likes of Karl Rove.


She has huge fans in Pat Buchanan and other right-wing pundits.



She cannot go "aggressive" on McLellan's book because she agrees (and agreed) with the administration's run-up to the war.


She has become another Lieberman, right before our eyes.


You just haven't accepted it yet.

5. She's busy attacking Obama for a sermon given by a Catholic priest at TUCC.

6. I agree she should use this

the fact that she continues to not take such opportunities is why she is 6 times as far away from the finish line as Senator Obama.

For the stupidest, dumbest post of the day.

I thought about excerpting it to make my point, but it stands alone.
