Fire away with both barrels but don't be disappointed if she's still standing. A republican majority in both houses couldn’t land a knock out punch on the Clinton’s for 6 years.

Her supporters wants mud, give them mud. We will see how vetted she is. I'm looking forward to the questions about her husband's pardoning of terrorists that made Ayers look like the Dali Lama. Ya take the good, ya take the bad...let's give the bad. My friend, you know, I think, how I feel about this lately. Her supporters wants mud, give them mud. We will see how vetted she is.

The primary is good for the party. The person who emerges will be a hero. It isn't up to the candidates to withdraw b/f they think they should - it's up to their supporters to fall in line with the winner when the primary is over. My concern is that that won't happen. When Dean was crushed by the Democratic machine, he had the brains and grace to implore his supporters to carry on within the party and work for the nominee and then he stayed involved in the party, helping to build the very successful 50 State strategy - all this even while the same party was still working against him. Obama and Clinton have to show the same sort of integrity - that's what the party will depend on. Not on keeping people from voting. Anyway, no matter how tough the primary gets, the mud slung at either of them in the general and the preference given to McCain by the establishment media will be so much worse that any prior bad acts won't cause a ripple. It's a whole new ballgame when the general starts. So let them fight it out - only a comparitively few people are really paying attention anyway. Have you tried getting outside the bubble of people who follow this stuff? It's enlightening. That said, say what you want but be sure you think very hard about how much it really needs to be said.

This wasn't a rhetorical question, I am seriously looking for people's opinions here. How this campaign continues on will definitely influence my opinion, but my readers will too. I can't say that if Hillary chooses to cross a line I won't cross right along with her, but if the readership doesn't want me going there, I'll hold off as long as I can. Just a quick note here.
