Oh, Balls. She would have fired up their base as much as Palin is. And you would be saying, "If only he had the courage to pick Biden", cuz Mac Romney is a strong ticket."
Hill brings nobody; the Pumas are Limbaugh people; they wouldn't voter for Hil.
Yer getting as bad as the right..."he's too weak to nominate Hil"; or, if he had, "He's so weak he had to nominate Hil". Or SNL..."campaign is in disarray and he cancelled" (we know in reaction to Ike). If he had gone on, it would be "He doesn't care about Ike victims".

So, as the most ardent O fan of the all, you should stick a sock in in, until the debates. Then you can second guess.

He fired them up in Manchester, NH..

The debates should really bring back everyone in focus..most importantly, that tiny slice of undecideds........



In a shift from the apolitical tone the presidential candidates took during Hurricane Gustav, Barack Obama did not temper his rhetoric Saturday, as his spokesman accused John McCain of “cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history.”

“John McCain wants to have a debate about national security let’s have that debate. I warned that going into Iraq would distract us from Afghanistan. John McCain cheer-leaded for it. John McCain was wrong and I was right,” Obama told a screaming New Hampshire crowd.

“The McCain-Palin ticket, they don’t want to debate the Obama-Biden ticket on issues because they are running on eight more years of what we’ve just seen. And they know it,” Obama said. “As a consequence what they’re going to spend the next seven, eight weeks doing is trying to distract you.

“They’re going to talk about pigs and they’re going to talk about lipstick, they’re going to talk about Paris Hilton, they’re going to talk about Britney Spears. They will try to distort my record and they will try to undermine your trust in what the Democrats intend to do.” [...]

The McCain campaign criticized Obama for showing “zero restraint” given the storm and said “today’s attacks mark a new low from Barack Obama.”

The Obama camp’s response was even tougher. “We will take no lectures from John McCain who is cynically running the sleaziest and least honorable campaign in modern presidential campaign history,” said Obama spokesman Bill Burton. “His discredited ads with disgusting lies are running all over the country today. He runs a campaign not worthy of the office his is seeking.”
