Another reason to not support Clinton in '08
Let's just take a quick look at her campaign incidents up to this week.
So far she has:
1) Assured the Canadian government NAFTA would be secure and any statements to the contrary were just political speech, and then accused the Obama team of holding the meeting
2) Consistently and deliberately lied to the Democrat voters in Ohio and Texas when she said she was against NAFTA and had always been against NAFTA (see #1)
3) Released campaign ads stating McCain was ready to be the commander-in-chief of the military
4) A spokesman and primary adviser for her campaign (Howard Wolfson) compared Obama to Kenneth Starr, and was retained
5) A spokesman and primary adviser for her campaign (Howard Wolfson) accused Obama of plagarism despite statements to the contrary by the original author of the speech, and was retained
6) A key campaign supporter (Geraldine Ferraro) has multiple times stated the only reason Obama is the front-runner is because he is black, and she still sits on the campaign finance committee
So far Obama has:
1) A key policy adviser (Samantha Power) accused Hillary of being a monster, and was promptly fired
2) Louis Farrakhan (a man in no way associated with the Obama campaign) writes an editorial supporting the Obama candidacy, and was promptly "denounced and rejected" by Obama himself
So it looks like Hillary is attempting to turn this thing real ugly, real fast in the hopes Obama will get drawn into a mud-slinging competition.
Is that who you really want to support?
