Let’s do the disclaimer first:
I support Obama and want him to get the nomination over Hillary, and win the general election over McCain.
There.
That being said, I was mostly excoriated by the orange Obamabots when I posted this diary, back in February, to wit: It Begins: What Will Obama Do?. They have a very “shoot the messenger” attitude over there, if it’s not blowing kisses at Obama. I can’t abide such things.
At any rate, that now being “of record”, let’s turn to today’s Talking Points Memo and an article found there entitled: Conservatives Planning New Attack Group for Election. A’yup — it’s all about what’s already sort of started, but which hasn’t begun to really get going, yet: an assault on Sen. Hopey Hope the likes of which will make mere Swiftboating look like a deluge of love letters.
The very first comment under the TPM article is the best one, too:
The issue is this…
Will the Democrats collectively wet their pants
at the sight of these attacks or will they
counter-attack?JimboF
And, no, I’m not “JimboF”.
The answer to the question is, well, I don’t know. When Ed Shultz called McCain a “warmonger” a couple of days ago, the Obama campaign attained light-speed in its rush to denounce Shultz. So, I’m not sure what’s going to happen when the gloves really come off. And the people at orange think that Hillary’s all diabolical and nasty. She’s a piker compared to what the GOP’s going to do to Obama. Brace yourselves . . .
