It has begun: Hillarypalooza |

Ed Klein's book goes on sale today.
Does Hillary fight back, or put him on ignore?

1. I think she will do the traditional Democratic thing and not say anything |
|
This is why she will not be a candidate in 08. When will the Democrats stand up and fight back?

6. Ed Klein is just a hack writer. She is correct to ignore him. |
|
Bill O'Reilly took the exact opposite approach with Al Franken, and we can see how that turned out. Anything she says or does about the book will just help it to sell copies. Any mention of it causes one more person who wasn't going to read the book to pick it up. As it stands, it's not a mainstream item anyhow. It will sell to the 33% of the country that no Democract is ever going to win in a general election anyhow.
Responding to it will just get that middle 33% to ask what the book is all about, and that's not what she needs. Going after a hack like Klein wastes her time. Now, if this were a real political opponent squaring off against her, she ought to go for the jugular. That's the difference, I think.

2. Put him on ignore - the RW will shoot their wad, flame out, |
|
...and it will all be forgotten by 2008.

4. The charges are so incredibly lame. |
|
Only Hilary haters will find these books of any interest. The rest will catch its drift while scanning headlines of tabloids waiting to be checked out at the supermarket.

5. First rumors were a libel suit |
|
but I think it would be in her best interest to turn her nose up at Klein. The best response is no response.

7. Just another Hillary-hate book. Klein should give Ted Olson 1/2 of |
|
the royalties since he probably lifted half of the garbage from Barbara Olson's "best seller".
