[ericgtr]

Looks like the gloves are off and the blood vessles are ready to pop.

"My opponent says that he'll take on the special interests," she said. "Well, he told people he stood up to the nuclear industry and passed a bill against them. But he actually let the nuclear industry water down his bill -- the bill never actually passed."

We should also probably point this out:

Presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) has secured more earmarks in the fiscal 2008 defense authorization bill than any other Democrat except for Chairman of the Armed Services Committee Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.). The fiscal year (FY) Defense Authorization Bill has $5.4 billion in earmarks, 26 of which were requested by Clinton, and which add up to a total of $148.4 million in federal spending. Clinton had previously secured 360 earmarks worth a combined $2.2 billion from 2002 to 2006 in all spending and authorization bills.

1. St. Obama has attacked Hillary and Edwards' records for a year

It is about time his real record is being put on the table for folks to consider.

[jsamuel]

2. amen

[ericgtr]

4. Agreed

It's just awfully hypocritical. Sort of like me pointing at you with a smoke in my hand telling you never to do it.

[Blarch]

26. Yep.

It's the hypocrisy that irks me.

[emilyg]

20. Oh Yes!!!!

[LSparkle]

3. He needs to rise above this

No "winning ugly." Let her stew in her own juice.

[jackson_dem]

27. Winning ugly=swiftboating the Clintons on race and winning SC, GA, AL, and MD on racial voting

[TexasObserver]

5. She should save those for Mini Me. She might be able to beat him.

[avrdream]

6. Either Dem can beat up on mini me.

I just want the one in the White House who is going to definitely support the issues that are important to me. Hill is my gal.

I'm glad she is fighting back.

[TexasObserver]

7. She's trying, but she's lost. Say buh bye to Hillary.

She's done and doesn't know it yet, like Patrick Swayze in Ghost.

[avrdream]

8. Thanks for bumping the thread.

You aren't changing my mind whatsoever but keeping these positive HRC threads at the top of GDP might just change someone elses.

Buh bye!

[flordehinojos]

9. Dynomite Hillary. It was about time!

obamaland is going to go after you whether you take off the gloves or not ... a good one-two-punch filled with truthful facts might make some stop and take a second look.

way to go! hooray!

[Fredda Weinberg]

11. And this is a legit issue. Obama lied in Iowa ... let him have it! n/t

[earthlover]

12. "filled with truthful facts..." Are there any other kind? Maybe there are in Hillary land?

[Thrill]

10. If she wins the nomination. McCain is going to tear her apart on that earmarks crap

[grantcart]

13. We have officially entered Stage V

Stage I When you do not have the best position on the war - prevaricate

Stage II When you do not have the clear voice of leadership - triangulate

Stage III When you do not have the momentum - trivialize the election just lost

Stage IV When you do not have anywhere to go - instigate a smear on the supporters as unthinking cultists

Stage V When the supporters embrace the slur and turn it around - start backing up the dump truck and release a load
against the leader who has sparked a fire across the country.

Stage VI When this desperate tactic is reviled - step aside as the great locomotive of history barrels by you and you turn to watch history pass you by.

14. What?!

Politicians running for the same office going after each other?!?!?

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

15. and he makes speaches!

make speeches!!!

OMG OMG OMG!!!

16. It's about f*cking time.

[meow mix]

17. makes her look desperate and her attacks are weak. this is ridiculous

hillary on the attack... yawn

[floridablue]

18. Rats. Those earmarks

should be coming here to Congressman Young's district where they belong and the jobs to support Pinellas County are needed.

[Life Long Dem]

19. I hear nothing new.

Is she giving a knockout or at least a knock down punches? No she isn't. And she already tried this coming out of a debate where she accused Obama of drawing first blood with mudslinging. In the midst of all those attacks was the kindergarten attack if you remember. Guess what? It didn't work and they knew it.

That makes me wonder more about delegates and MI and FL. And yesterday on CNN someone mentioned going to court over MI or FL. So I'm more concerned about Clinton getting cozy with Bush and just TX.

[meow mix]

21. Obama gives to good of speeches to be president.

omg i can feel the fury

[BootinUp]

22. Geux Hillary! She will win in a substance debate everytime. nt

[johnnydrama]

23. not even looking at the substance

what a horrible sentence

"My opponent says that he'll take on the special interests," she said. "Well, he told people he stood up to the nuclear industry and passed a bill against them. But he actually let the nuclear industry water down his bill -- the bill never actually passed."

This is suppose to enlighten people?

[kurth]

24. Well, It's About Goddamn Time

[DefenseLawyer]

25. That photo

is not going to do much for her. Boxing gloves? No one likes a prop comic, Carrot Top.

[ericgtr]

28. Here's another one

Not sure where this one came from but it looks like she's having a bad day lol

[DemGa]

29. She's been so easy on him--now give'em hell!!...nt

[goldcanyonaz]

30. It's about damn time.
