My understanding is that GWB is well-liked in much of Africa.

No, it’s another step further. They have consultants. They share consultants.

Billary is this the best you got?

Anyway... if Her Thighness does NOT get the nomination... any idea how long she'll stay NY's "junior" senator (I bet she couldn't deal with such a stinging slap down).

I suspect you’re right, oblomov. In a campaign season that hasn’t given me much satisfaction, this is at least getting interesting.

Obama handled this exactly right.

Mundane, clichéd rhetoric is difficult to copyright, by definition.

The Clintons are getting pathetically desperate.

Yes, it is a very subtle ploy...Obama might in fact be tougher to beat in the general election simply because he communicates better than McCain, but I would expect fewer dirty tricks out of him than out of Hitlery.

Yes, they want the Obama campaign to be in disarray as the month ends, not before...next primaries are on Mar 4.

Remember who had the FBI files of 1000 people for two years let me guess who will win the democrat ticket.

WE don’t want either Hilliary or Obama to implode until the Democratic convention - just bloody each other up a lot.

I am enjoying this latest fight and am anxious to see who wins it.

Yep, it is disappointing. I think their FBI files are out dated. Surely Hillary can come up with better attacks then this.

In fact this story is a sign of great desperation not a sign of a campaign who is in total control as you are suggesting below.

Depends on what you’re doing with the paper. Turn it in for credit at college, you get an F. Write it in a newspaper with his approval get kudos. Very few politicians write their own material.

I can confirm that. Has has repeatedly offended me ever since I moved to Delaware. Now his son is offending me as well.

“Obama says borrowed lines not a big deal”

Neither are obfuscations or outright lies.

At least not for Muslims - or democrats.

That’s the ting isn’t it? Hillery runs a very nasty campaign and Obama looks like he is just firing back in defence, that he wouldn’t stoop so low on his own.
