Video: Clinton’s All Hot Air in New Obama Attacks
February 23, 2008 by polivox
Since playing little miss nice candidate wasn’t working out for her, Hillary Clinton has now cranked up the bitch meter and is endlessly harping on Obama for distributing what she refers to as false mailings regarding her feelings about NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement).
Hillary has displayed a more angry tone in her latest attempt to cast Barack Obama in a negative light. She goes as far as to accuse Obama of employing the sleazy political tactics of KKKarl Rove and George Bush.
The problem with Hillary’s tactic is that it’s full of hot air. She supported NAFTA (as Obama’s mailer claims) and it was Bill Clinton who was President at the time NAFTA was passed into law — though the first Bush had more to do with NAFTA’s birth.
She is using an old political tactic by shouting loud about a supposed sleazy tactic by her opponent without having to discuss the substance of the mailer. She can’t do that, because she supported the measure, even referring to it in a positive way in her own book.
She really needs to win Ohio and it shows.
