Hillary's Secret Police Returns

Poll
With unemployment at 10.2%, what will happen by the end of Obama's first term?



Are the Clinton secret police back on patrol?

It looks like they may be making a late campaign comeback.

In a week-end column, Robert Novak alleged that “agents” of Hillary Clinton are “spreading the word that she has scandalous information” about Barack Obama, but decided not to use it. (How considerate of her!)

Obama has come out swinging, accusing the Clinton campaign of trying to swift-boat him and demanding that Clinton either release the information or admit that there is none.

The Clinton camp is shocked that anyone would ever think that it would use such tactics!

Clinton campaign Communications Director (and KGB enforcer look-alike) Howard Wolfson claimed that the campaign had “no idea” what Novak was talking about. Absolutely!

And, as usual, Wolfson tried to turn the embarrassing issue for Hillary into a problem for Barack, claiming he was naive for believing what was in the Novak column.

“A Republican-leaning journalist runs a blind item designed to set Democrats against one another. Experienced Democrats see this for what it is. Othe rs get distracted and thrown off their games,” Wolfson said.

Does anybody really believe that Hillary hasn’t been gathering dirt on her opponents? Anyone with any experience in politics knows one thing for sure: Hillary Clinton plays the game rough and dirty — and she has a sordid history of using private investigators to find scandals in the background of anyone who gets in her way.

While Hillary righteously lectures the candidates about mudslinging, her boys in the back room are readying the dirt to leak when she’s not doing too well.

Remember in the 1992 campaign when Gennifer Flowers and other women were harassed by private detectives? The Clintons used campaign money to pay over $100,000 to private investigators to scare off the women. (Now they’ve learned to bury their investigative costs in lawyers bills.)

And does anyone think it was a coincide nce that Republican speaker of the House and the chairman of the Judiciary Committee were outed for extra-marital affairs just at the time that the impeachment vote was about to take place? Continued...

The Tears of a King
King Liberal,

We'll all be back to hear your whining after Obama wins the Democratic Party Nomination. Can you at least offer a degree of intellectual honesty and admit the polls show her falling and Obama taking the lead in the early states? Recent polls show EVERY Republican candidate leads Hillary nationally.

But hey - no worries. If Hillary is the nominee, I'm sure those 50% of NEVER VOTING FOR HILLARY will be swayed by her disengenuous moderate speeches.

Who said it?
"As she told Sidney Blumenthal when the Lewinsky scandal broke: 'We’ll just have to win.'”

Funny, I thought it was the "Big [male] Creep" who said this.
