Jeffry Toobin just NAILED IT on CNN
Edited on Fri Aug-22-08 05:45 PM by underpants
After a discussion of the Clintons and if Hillary was vetted and what she thought about it

Toobin

~"this is what we are going to hear all week 'What do the Clinton's think?' 'What about the Clintons?' all this psychobabble when if the Democrats are smart this will be about Barack Obama!!"

one of the other talking heads (outside someone's house) said "yeah but.....lukewarm about OBama"

Toobin finished "If they are GOOD DEMOCRATS they will support Obama"

Wolf went to commercial

5. Hillary should have been vetted, if only for the optics and because Obama stated that she'd be on
anybody's short-list. Frankly, though, I'm confused by that report from Politico because I'm sure I read weeks ago in the New York Time that she was being vetted.

7. Politico also contradicted themselves in the same article...
Quote: "An Obama aide said, absolutely exhaustive research was done on her over the course of 16 month primary. She was researched more closely than any candidate in history."

10. I noticed that was added to the article later on. It wasn't there when I first read it. Damage

14. do you not think there's plenty of vetting that has been done on her over the past 20 years?
I mean, wow, this lady has everything out about her. She has lots of bad associations, but she's vetted enough for Obama to know she was a solid choice, but he's probably going to go elsewhere to ignore the sleezy attacks on her by the GOP that would consume the campaign.

12. Place in my heart for Jeff Toobin 'cause
during the primaries he and 2 others(don't remember) stood up for Obama when the freaking Bitter shit was being rained down.
