I was under the impression that what the Clintons were saying about Obama was far worse than what Obama's saying about Clinton. Or maybe I'm just reading too much Andrew Sullivan....
Not mutually exclusive, FTR. I would hesitate to base much on Sullivan's opinions of anyone, but maybe especially HRC. That said, I do think the Clinton camp has been throwing the most mud (or throwing it least skillfully, at any rate).
I don't mind Bill bulldogging for Hillary, but most of what he's been swinging is either based on deliberate misinterpretation (the Reagan stuff) or just seriously unpleasant and racially suspect (the Jesse Jackson stuff). He didn't have to go down those roads - his speech about Obama's war stance being a "fairytale" was not something I totally agreed with, or was happy to see in a primary stage, but a legitimate tack nonetheless.
I keep mixing up the date of Md's primary with the date of my dental appt for crownwork. I think that sums up my attitude.
I keep turning onto my right side while sleeping and jamming up my shoulder. It wakes me up with the aching. Bleah. Done with that.
Yeah, that stuff I hadn't heard about, and don't like to see from anybody. (BTW, did you see the batshit crazy coming out of NY NOW this weekend about Kennedy? Eep.)
I think we need to cut this whole campaign thing short - as it is, people start campaigning something like two years before the election. It's turned into an endurance test and everyone's exhausted and burned out by the end.
On the bright side, the day after the election, if someone asks what you think of the results, "I'm so glad it's over" is a safe response.

Was that when they said Kennedy's endorsement of Obama was the "biggest betrayal ever" of feminism?

'Cept maybe not in 2000. Or 2004.
There goes all my give-a-shit. I mean, I'll go out and do my yellow dog Democrat duty on Election Day for whoever,
I am JZ. I think it's sad that we've gotten to a state in which I would vote for a yellow dog rather than a Republican. Hell, I used be a Republican, more or less, back when the Republicans actually made vague stabs at fiscal responsibility.
The FCC fined ABC for something that happened on NYPD Blue five years ago.
