It occurs to me that it must have been a hell of a shock to Team Clinton when their little “Obama has a drug problem” stink bomb went off in their faces. They should have gotten a hint when Russert took off the gloves at the first Dem debate, but who can blame them for not seeing the writing on the wall? After all, this is who they are. It’s what they do. They spent the eight years of the Clinton presidency pulling this kind of crap and getting a free ride from the drive-bys. Remember Kathleen Willey’s cat? All of Bill’s bimbos that got slimed? That was supposedly Betsey Wright’s job, but don’t kid yourself, Hillary ran that show. Just like the travel office caper, and the disappearing papers from Vince Foster’s office, and all the rest of it.
It should be very entertaining from here on out seeing how they adjust, if they ever do.
Update: Whoops, I guess they have already. Heh.
Actually, no. But I’m guessing it didn’t get a cheezburger.
Hold your kitties, close, people.
From what I hear, it was delicious.
The Clinton Machine must be getting close to a real panic, realizing that the personal attack while playing the victim strategy they have always used is completely self-destructive against Obama if he plays his hand correctly. Good times.
Are we talking about Socks? on one hand it seemed kind of cruel to dump him. but on the other hand, after seeing what happened to Buddy, perhaps it was for the best.
Absolutely she ran the show, she was in charge of all that hateful stuff. I think without Hillary, Bill might not have been so repugnant a president. Still unworthy of the job, but not as despicable. The problem is this ain’t 1992, and the net won’t let you get away with lies like that any more.
I like Rich Lowry’s take on the Hildebeast along the lines of: If you disliked her when she was ladling out phony sincerity and trying (and failing) to be likeable, just wait until she peels the bark off Obama.
No, Maggie. Socks was the phony pet the Clintons kept at the White House for photo-ops. Kathleen Willey had a cat that disappeared under mysterious circumstances during the time she was being followed by one of the Clintons’ hired goons. It might even have been Anthony Pelicano, I don’t remember.
ah, I haven’t heard about that.
