Democratic piledrivers

Those wily Clintonistas!

On HillaryHub this morning, the Clinton campaign has put up two video clips of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, earlier this year and former Sen. John Edwards, D-NC, talking about the need to run positive campaigns.

This just hours before a debate in which both men are anticipated to point out some, shall we say "issues" they have with Clinton. ("Issues" as in "she's winning" and they don’t want her to be…)

Of course Clinton never made such a promise. Not that she herself needs to go negative on the record.

The good Rev. Al Sharpton, a supposed born-again Christian, does more to stir up the pot of racism and discontent than almost anyone else I know. His song is old, the words are hurtful and his message is FAR from Jesus'.

are you sure she never made a promise to that effect. Didn't she go OFF after Obama accepted money from Geffen, in the wake of anti-Clinton comments? I think it's at least implied that there is some sort of code of positivity among democrats.

nice throwaway line at the end of the post Jake. what is she, like the Godfather? or godmother?

Hey did anybody else see the note on the Chinese moon rocket the note saying Thanks Bill And Hilary!

First of all condemning the policies and public actions of your opponent is not negative or dirty politics. Doing what Hilary does of personal destruction is!

So Obama will you get some teeth please!
