Poll question: Obama contrasting his initial war stance to Hillary's; Is that considered an Attack?
or is it pointing out a policy difference and the ramifications?

1. It's only an attack if Hillary does it. Stay with the program. nt

4. We'll see.
I believe that Obama will have to tiptoe or else.

9. No, silly. Any criticism of St. Hillary is a "personal attack".

2. He wasn't even in the Senate at the time so in my view you can't compare.

5. Why not? Only senators matter?
Do you want me to post each of their speech side by side? statements in the same week?

3. Which stance on what issue? The stance he had before he had
the one he has now? Or the one he'll have during the next debate. Or the one he'll have after that?

6. Gawd forbid she be held accountable for her egregious votes on war.
Careful FC, Hillary might cry and pull out the Victim Card again. You don't have your surrogates hammering Obama's "present" votes in Illinois for nothing, you know. That's subterfuge you can't buy!

K&R ;)

10. So Wal-Mart is being dropped because we heard about it? Obama's Dean Foods directorship problem
will not now be discussed? Obama's conservative votes and his explanation that he pushed the "wrong buttun" - three times - will be off-limits? Obama continuing to find each week more Rezko money to return is put to bed, as are the 17 year long close relations w/ real estate deal that Obama lied about, saying that he and Rezko were not close?

12. How can he contrast when he continued to vote for funding it?
Sorry but that's got me confused.

13. It's an attack, but it's a fair one
As opposed to the Clintons' unfair attacks on Obama on this issue.

Obama is sticking to the facts. The Clintons are twisting his words and presenting a picture they know is incorrect.
