This is the problem with Hillary Clinton's campaign. They're not satisfied with taking the political points that the media awards them in these situations. They've got to take it to 11. When Saturday Night Live pointed out, accurately, that the media was going at her like ants on a damp lollipop while giving Obama a free pass, her strategists scripted an awkward joke for her to drop into the debate at the worst time.
When questions about the inspirations behind Barack Obama's speeches were getting some play, again, the little Mark Penn on her shoulder was like, "Do a Xerox joke!"
After her 3am ad seemed to resonate with Big State voters, she pronounced John McCain "King of All Commanders-in-Chief."
Now, not satisfied with the blizzard of crap being flung at Barack Obama for leveling with small town America about how they've been hoodwinked for decades, she's out to convince them that she's a pistol-packin', gun lovin' 2nd Amendmentophile on a par with "Varmint Hunter" Mitt Romney. All she accomplishes is lookoing foolish and reinforcing the false narrative that Democrats are against the 2nd Amendment. Bullseye?
In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around.
