I have no fear of the Swift Boaters of 2008...
With every attempt the swifties make to chip at the Clinton or Obama campaign, I feel will be answered with very large biting off of heads.

WIth Obama, I'm not sure how deep and dirty he's willing to fight back.

But without a doubt, Clinton (or at least her Husband) understands that trash like this deserves a response that is 10 fold more devastating and damaging to your opponent's cause.

1. Some truth to that
And also the slightly heightened awareness of the deception by Cons/Republicans lead by Bush. This may be indicated by AM Radio talking point mouthers waning, Rush for example.

2. Obama's media operation is impressive, except he loses points
Edited on Fri Mar-02-07 05:10 PM by Heaven and Earth
for mentioning the Lincoln bedroom, but since Hillary started that tiff, the loss is suspended. Hillary, meanwhile, loses massive amounts of points for repeating the Iraq-9/11 craziness. I question her effectiveness against right-wing memes, since she has shown that she is willing to repeat the worst.

3. Like they responded to the 'Clintons trashed the WH' attack? Like they responded
to 'Clinton is to blame for 9-11' attack? Or the way they responded to 'Democrats are weak on terror, Clinton coddled the terrorists for years' attack?

Do you know who defended Clinton in 92 when he was attacked as a draftdodger? John Kerry.

Do you want to know whose attack machine NEVER engaged or fought back against BushInc's machine that was relentlessly attacking the Democrats for the last 6 years? Clinton's famous attack machine.

I thought the team that was developed in the 90s would be in place for the entire party. Instead they became TV personalities who still only knew how to defend the Clintons without knowing jackshit about any other Democrat and their record.
