I should have bet a steak dinner:

“Key Obama Iowa Adviser Invokes ‘Monica’s Blue Dress’”

Or given that I’m not eating meat nowdays, at least a good bottle of wine.

I have a feeling that Governor Richardson, and the Obama camp, are anxious
for this contest to end before anymore revelations emerge……like from the
Rezko trial for instance. I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama is called to testify in
the coming weeks. I know this much, whenever anyone is rushing me to sign
on the dotted line, it’s a red flag. You can count on this tactic from a con-man
scam artist. They want to dazzle you with a pitch…before you have a chance
look closely at the details. Keep going Hillary!

Um, I can’t see how silliy it is to make predictions, no. Bet you a steak dinner his campaign tries it at some point.

BTW – I agree with the sentiment in this post. That article is awful. All politics of this kind ought to be stopped. Unfortunately, the reading/viewing public eats it up. It’s the same reason we have more McDonalds than health stores.

Janis –
You hit Obama for a hit he hasn’t made yet because he has the gall to make a hit? Can’t you see how silly it is to try to score political points by assuring us that he’ll try to score political points.

In fact, it isn’t just silly it’s irresponsible. WHen you say things like that, you lead people to believe that Obama is leaking memos or pushing a narrative when we have no evidence he is. That isn’t fair.

Attack him when he plays low ball, but not when you think he might. That is low ball in and of itself.

I agree that people are damn tired of the Monica stuff but fail to see how the Monica crap relates to Senator Obama.

That Monica crap is going to turn people off of Obama in droves. People had a damned gutful of that garbage ten years ago; the first person to bring it up publicly in an audience will get deluged with tomatoes, and it’ll be a joy to see it.

Monica freaking Lewinsky. Jesus effing CHRIST, give it a rest. Even that kid herself went to law school or something and just moved the fuck ON with her life.

It’s like they found a revolver with a weak topstrap — they’ll try to shoot it, and the whole thing will blow up in their hands.

All that dress business and other Monica-related issues coming out from the release of the schedules is vile. It’s also a huge distraction from what people should be looking at which is the evidence of Hillary’s experience she asserts she gained in eight years as first lady.

I do love that Wolfson guy, saying they’ve released 11,000 more pages of documents than Senator Obama has–as if they did this because they really wanted to. Whatever that guy gets paid, they should double it because he has an outstanding ability to make lemonade.

I say we make a game of Hillary’s schedules….
