Here's the difference between the personalities of our two candidates |
|
When Hillary is unfairly treated (and I won't say she never has been either), she cries foul and makes sure to bring it up as often as possible.
When Obama is unfairly treated he quite literally brushes it off his shoulder and stays on message.
Just an observation.

1. Right. None of that "need a pillow" stuff |
|
or pimping SNL as a source for media analysis.
Obama has the character and temperament to be president. Hillary falls short on both.

3. When Senator Clinton is unfairly treated, |
|
she either moves on or speaks up for herself.
When Obama is unfairly treated, his surrogates shout and whine and do his dirty work for him. They point their fingers and cry about racism. They are sure to throw in a little bit of ageism and classism, making sure that "everyone" knows that Obama supporters are better educated and "smarter."

4. Exactly - whining Tonya Harding style is what Bushes do, too. |

Did the press ever show respect for the fact that people who actually have LIVED tough lives DON'T get perturbed and go batshit crazy when they are attacked with mere words?
In 2004, the Dem spokespeople should have been all over the news shows saying Kerry isn't going to feel any pain from the silly lies from BushInc because he knows what it is like to face machine gunfire and rocket fire and be compelled to plow forward anyway because other lives are at stake.
But most Dem spokespeople and pundits back then were only schooled in defending Clintons and knew little about defending any other Dem - same with 2000 and Gore., they didn't even know enough about Gore to dig in and defend him mightily.
