    Default Krugman and Coulter- What a lovely couple !

    I usually attribute Ann Coulter's lunatic ravings to anorexic dementia or more likely a simple desire to sell more of her books. What's Paul Krugman's excuse ?

    For months now he has had his nose securely stuck between Hillary's ample ass cheeks and has lept at every opportunity to criticize and belittle Obama. In today's New York Times he clearly went over the line. First he conflates Obama
    supporters with NIXON ! He claims that Obama's campaign is using slander and scare tactics ! Huh ? Then he goes on to claim that Obama's campaign has become a "personality cult" akin to that of George W. Bush ! ? ! ??. Double huh?

    It gets better. He then claims the press is biased against the Clintons ! That Whitewater was a "small, failed land deal". Leaving aside his re-writing of history ( something he's got a long record of doing ) it is ludicrous to claim that Hillary has been "savaged' by the press. Twer it only true. Where is the serious inquiry as to where the $5 million came from ? Where is the serious inquiry into Bill's Kazakhstan finagling ? Or his $20 milion buy-out from Burkle ? David Shuster WAS suspended for a poor choice of words. Hillary wants him drawn and quartered . Stephanopolous is disgustingly gentle with her; as was Couric last night and as Russert always is. They routinely ask a question; let her dodge it and rattle off a few talking points and let her get away with it. Nobody gets after her and says anything like " Thank you, now would you please answer the question."

    This is just the latest example of Clintonian verbal judo. Obama never did or said anything to make race an issue in this campaign. Bill did. More than once and every time they're called on it they turn around and BLAME Obama for what Bill or another Clinton supporter said.

    Nobody, not a single soul in Obama's campaign has uttered a peep about not supporting Hillary if she is the Dem. nominee. Yet without citing a single source, Krugman claims that Obama's supporters will just pick up their marbles and go home rather than support Hillary. It is true that Obama has significant independent and Republican support that will NEVER vote for Hllary ( like me ) but he doesn't say that. If anyone has a legit fear of something like that, it is Obama. Ask Al Gore. He hates the Clintons because they didn't support him being too wrapped up in a Senate race Hillary had no chance of losing.

    If anyone has injected Nixonian tactics into this campaign it is definitely the Clintons.

    With Obama's recent wins here lately, hopefully people are waking up to the fact that if one wants change one needs to vote for a candidate that isn't part of the old school.

    All of Hillary's (or her consultants) dirty tricks puts the taste of bile in my mouth and I think "how typical of the establishment -- of both parties -- that has put this country into such straights these days."

    Teddy Kennedy has been around the block. He knows when to jump off one wagon and jump onto another.
