A New Day Post

          The risk to the Democratic Party’s eventual nominee was evident in Hillary Clinton’s attack of Barack Obama on Monday (3/3/08). It came several days ago the New York Times warned that the Clinton campaign planed to throw the kitchen sink at Obama. Willing to do anything to fight back into the race, the Clintons used public displays of emotion in New Hampshire, raised the issue of race in South Carolina and used ambiguous language that encourage doubt about Obama’s religion and patriotism on CBS’ 60 Minutes.

            Now, in an attempt to question his readiness for office, and not withstanding the fact that Obama has held elective office longer than Sen. Clinton, Hillary is saying that John McCain has the experience to be president, while Obama does not.  In comparing the three senators resumes Clinton said, “I think that I have a lifetime of experience that I will bring to the White House, Sen. John McCain has a lifetime of experience that he’d bring to the White House. And Sen. Obama has a speech he gave in 2002.”

            Her willingness to try to diminish the man, who will most likely be her party’s nominee, shows yet again that the Clintons value their own political ambitions above most anything else. And that is something that voters should consider. McCain wins this round.
