Clinton Campaign Warns of Nasty Repubs

Today’s Boston Globe front page story on the Clinton campaign in New Hampshire is telling. First the campaign points out a nasty thing that Republicans might say about Obama:

"The Republicans are not going to give up without a fight . . . and one of the things they're certainly going to jump on is his drug use," Bill Shaheen, the husband of former New Hampshire governor Jeanne Shaheen, said in an interview with The Washington Post.

Billy Shaheen is the co-chairman of Clinton’s New Hampshire campaign.

But while Republicans might say such a thing, the Clinton campaign would not, even though they just did:

Kathleen Strand, a spokeswoman for Clinton in New Hampshire, moved quickly to distance the campaign from Shaheen's comments, saying they "were not authorized or condoned by the campaign in any way." Shaheen did not return phone calls seeking comment, but later apologized in a one-sentence statement issued by the campaign.

That is Clintonian truth, as it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be.

The Drudge Report had as its main picture perhaps the worst picture of Hillary Clinton any of us have EVER seen. And the Drudge Report kept that picture there ALL DAY.

Commander-in-Chief material? No way, no how. She is the Titanic-Hindenburg-Lusitania all rolled together.
