Liberal Democratic Mudslinging


Hillary a "monster?" Obama's people say so.


Inside US poll battle as fight turns dirty for Democrats
By GERRI PEEV

HILLARY Clinton has been branded a "monster" by one of Barack Obama's top
advisers, as the gloves come off in the race to win the Democrat nomination.
In recent TV appearances Mrs Clinton had looked desperate and on the back foot.

In an unguarded moment during an interview with The Scotsman, Samantha Power, his
key foreign policy aide, let slip the camp's true feelings about the former First Lady. Her comments came as Mr Obama, whose defeats in Texas and Ohio on Tuesday were largely put down to a series of negative attacks on him, vowed to turn up the heat on Mrs Clinton over her claims to be the more experienced candidate.

The fragile truce was blown apart as the pressure for the nomination intensified, with Mrs Clinton winning in Texas and Ohio. Ms Power told The Scotsman Mrs Clinton was stopping at nothing to try to seize the lead from Mr Obama."

We f***** up in Ohio," she admitted. "In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio's the only place they can win. "

She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to anything," Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark."

Interestingly, the people in her innermost circle seem to not mind her; I think they really
love her." But she added: "There is this middle circle – they are really on the warpath. But the truth is she has proved herself really willing to stoop."

In recent TV appearances Mrs Clinton had looked desperate and on the back foot.Ms
Power agreed, and said: "Here, it looks like desperation. I hope it looks like desperation there too."

You just look at her and think: ergh. But if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective. The amount of deceit she has put forward is really unattractive."


The intellectually lazy are sounding the alarm about "Republican attacks" against the vacuous Barack H. Obama and Hillary's sychophants can't stop playing the victim/wronged woman card.

Given the offensive, racist, condescending and scurrilous charges Obama's and Clinton's people have been lobbying back and forth, they should be watching each other's own far left flanks instead of worrying about Republicans.
