As I expected she would… Today in Rapid City, SD, Hillary Clinton went to bat for Barack Obama in the wake of Bush’s comparison of him to Neville Chamberlain, Ken Vogel reports (via Politico).
She told reporters:
President Bush’s comparison of any Democrat to Nazi appeasers is both offensive and outrageous on the face of it, especially […]

The night before last I wrote a post here titled: Get A Grip!!! The post had a two fold message, one: to Clinton supporters threatening to vote for McCain over Obama and two: to Obama supporters who’s comments were getting out of hand here.
The post created some outcry from Clinton supporters here, sadly, who don’t […]

Big Tent Democrat notes on Talk Left that Obama gave a speech in MO, before the polls closed in WVa. A little tacky? Kinda… But we already know Obama is looking beyond W Va although the results there could matter.
