I wouldnt know what they are asking of her at this point- but I expect she will come out strong against the McCain ticket several more times b/t now & Nov.

Maybe the calls for Hillary to attack McCain post DEM convention are premature- I would imagine that letting Palin beat her to the punch in the executive branch is the last thing she wants...

I've never heard "it is soley the candidate's job to attack" type talk before. In every other election, the candidates do indeed rely on attacks by surrogates to a large degree.
