Following the Democratic race closely, I have been amazed at the effectiveness of the Clinton campaign's attacks on Obama. It's amazing how they can go negative first, and then make it look like they are targets of unfairness. (The race issue) I don't see how Obama survives this machine. They are too good. My prediction, though, is that if Hillary wins the primary, she'll lose the general by whomever (except maybe Huckabee) the Republicans nominate. Democrats may love Bill Clinton and Hillary as a second act, but Clinton never won 50 percent of the vote because Perot was in the race, and they are so polarizing that they will not win independets.
Here's what David Plouffe, Obama's campaign manager, wrote today and will probably become a theme of Obamas -- that the Clinton's will do anything to win ...
"The conduct of the Clinton Campaign in recent weeks essentially makes the case for why we need Barack Obama - it's the same old-style say anything or do anything to win, divisive attacks that have prevented progress in this country for so long."

Thanks David,
On this we agree. Someone wrote on one of your earlier blogs that "Obama is the purer canditate"(Hope i quoted that correct)
It still amazes me that much of the public at large just lines up single file almost to back Senator Clinton almost without question. Why?
abcnews.com has a short read that says essentially that Obama will at least begin to call them on some things. Obama's a nice guy.

Why do we put so much concern into national politics when our local commission is out of control?
When did they listen to us, where are the petitions, why can't we have what we want?
It is very difficult to think outside of our city when the rot comes from within.
