CLINTON challenges OBAMA to run POSITIVE campaign???
This fecal matter must cease! I just saw this reported on MSNBC - that Hillary Clinton is challenging Barack Obama to run a more positive campaign from here on! HRC's incredibly cynical campaign strategy is wholly based on projection - the kind where one's own deficiencies are projected on someone else. It was Hillary who claimed Obama comforted to Canadians - but it was her campaign that actually did it. It was Hillary who said McCain had the "life experience" to answer the phone at 3 am. It was Hillary who said Obama is not a Muslim "As far as I know..."

Fecal Matter! She CANNOT win the nomination mathematically, so what other ways are left? She cannot issue this challenge, because she's not capable of running anything remotely resembling a positive campaign.

20. It's news. But don't expect the analysts to buy into it.
The media was the first ones asking about the tax returns. The media reported on Clinton's comments re: Mississippi first.

This isn't Obama digging up dirt. This is him asking the same questions that the media has asked.

116. The problem here is that it's not funny.
Not at all. You Hillary supporters do not seem to get the fact that she is damaged goods. Damaged bads, actually. Damaged, damaged, damaged. I'm not going to do a list or give you any links, because you are all ostriches wearing rose-colored glasses. But you need to see what is really going on here, and that what's at stake here is not HRC's inevitability, but the Democratic party - and therefore the whole country.

Not to mention the fact that she is not even a Democrat - and this IS democraticunderground.

perhaps you should seek help or something. All the high horse nonsense from you about how you support both candidates was sooo transparent for sooo long. Hopefully, you're no longer trying to push that line. That's like your candidate calling for a positive campaign from Obama- the height of hypocrisy.

I don't see how anyone could possibly vote for Hillary at this point. What would it take to get some of you Hillary supporters to wake the f*ck up and smell the kitchen sink!

In fact, one would make a poor sociopath if they weren't narcissistic.

35. The Clintons are great campaign strategists, in the sense that they
are good at "hardball" politics and negative campaigning, but they are also quite good at sensing when is the right time to switch, at least briefly, to a positive message (like suggesting a joint ticket). They then rinse and repeat with a great sense of timing.

They know that negative campaigning works, but also that constant negative campaigning would probably sink her.

Logically, wouldn't Hillary challenging Obama to be more positive and less negative, indicate that he IS ALREADY the "tougher," more dirty fighting candidate --ie. the candidate MOST likely to beat McCain and the thugs?
(according to current spin that America wants to see The Battle of the Titans.

This reeks of Rove. But doesnt it also give Obama some cred with the bloodthirsty masses?

Obama should just smile and say OK.

81. Sometimes it is about perception...
In the end, it is to your advantage if you are "perceived" to be the positive candidate. Hillary was desperate before the TX and OH primaries. If she had lost them, many would have been asking for her to step aside. She had no choice but to go negative. Now she is back in the running and it is time to be the "positive" candidate. Very smart.

105. Actually, the voters in Ohio exit polls found her campaign to be
very negative, attacking Obama unfairly--sometimes it works, sometimes it backfires. In WI, it backfired on her to go negative, in OH, it helped her. The problem lies in her ending up looking like a buffoon by claiming a positive campaign--she's becoming a parody of herself. Let's see if anyone buys it.

110. Most posts on this thread are humerous
People act like they would be happier if Clinton had instead said: "During the closing weeks of this campaign it is important for voters to focus on all the reasons why my primary opponent is the wrong person to represent our Party in the fall election, and to see for themselves exactly why he lacks the ability to lead our nation. I intend to reveal all of his failings as a person, as a Democrat, and as a potential leader."

I can't count all the threads here that warned of the dangers of Democrats tearing each other apart making it easier for McCain to win the General Election. I can't count all the threads that warned Clinton was about to throw the kitchen sink at Obama, pulling the entire Democratic Party down with her in a malicious death grip. I can't begin to capture all the rage people have expressed against Clinton over her supposedly wanting a Democratic blood bath. And if anything the anger is greater on this thread that she is suggesting the opposite.

I understand people being cynical. I understand Obama supporters believing this type of approach can't help Hillary now. But the virtual rage being expressed at her for daring to suggest both campaigns stay positive after all the rage being expressed at her for supposedly forcing both campaigns to go negative reveals the only real agenda many Obama supporters have here: Make Hillary Clinton go away.

Fine, bend yourself over backwards in contortions. She is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't because, bottom line, you simply damn her.

140. She has no interest in a positive campaign. All she has in mind is political spin
she has been through and through negative the whole campaign. She is trying to protect herself, no more than that.

She has already stated that McCain will bring more to the White House than Obama. She has crossed any line she now is trying to suggest both candidates follow.

126. Uh, no, you're missing the point
You don't all but have a news conference several weeks ago announcing your new 'kitchen sink' strategy of going negative and attacking your opponent, all but recommend a Republican over him, leave out sly innuendos and childish photograph games to bring into question his religion, steal a page out of the Republican play book with the 3 AM ad, and then turn around right after some big primaries and accuse your opponent of doing exactly what you were just doing.

If she wants to tone down the rhetoric and go completely positive from here on out I'm sure Obama will be happy to oblige. But to throw out that comment and the bit about Starr after what she has been up to the past several weeks is absurd. Does she think we are that stupid we weren't paying attention before Ohio and TX?

147. Sorry, but you are mistaken.
I'm under no illusions that these two candidates are like night and day. They are politicians.

I don't damn her for being a politician... but for pushing the envelope, in that regard. Implying that McCain is more qualified for Obama for the job... I'm sorry, but that's the kind of thing that I don't see as 'just politics'. And for her to say this, and not apologize for that BS... it stinks on ice.

She's got all the integrity of Dubya. So how
can you call for a positive campaign when you're still
hosing the mud off of your feet?

You jumped in the mud pit, why don't you just stay in their and wallow a while. Bless your heart. ;-)

No one is more vulnerable to character and ethics attacks than Hillary Clinton. Obama has, so far, avoided getting down in the mud with Hillary, but it's pretty clear that's gonna change. Expect Norman Hsu, Marc Rich and Brenda Stronach to become household words.

And don't forget: Obama will have the added advantage that his allegations will actually be true.

Her campaingn is the one that SAID she would be using the kitchen sink strategy, and then accused Obama of doing it.

She disgusts me.

Clinton sees Rove when she looks in the mirror. How can she use his tactics and use them herself, and accuse Obama of doing it....UGH!!!!
