Democrat Candidates Up the Attacks on Hillary Clinton

  With Hillary pulling even further ahead in all of the national polls, the other Democrat candidates appear to be upping their attacks on her.

   First we had Michelle Obama say this, “If you can’t run your own house, you can’t run the White House.”

  Now we have John Edwards trying to outdo that comment by saying this, “The American people deserve to know that their presidency is not for sale. The Lincoln Bedroom is not for rent,”. This is a direct attack on the Clinton administration as president Clinton essentially rented out the Lincoln bedroom for large donations.

  Is there any doubt who Michelle Obama was talking about? It was Hillary. Is there any doubt who John Edwards was talking about? It was Hillary. In my opinion these are both legitimate issues, and they should be addressed. If you think Hillary’s private life should be left private, and should not be an issue, I will give you that point, but only if Rudy’s family life, Fred Thompson’s younger wife, and Mitt’s Mormonism are also not an issue. That is not going to happen. Those Republican candidates personal issues will be splashed across the front pages up until the election. However the Democrat candidates (or their spouses in the Obama’s case) are backing off these statements even as I write this.

  Obama said on behalf of his wife’s comment, “The whole thing about Hillary has been completely fabricated,” Obama added. “You guys have got to get it off your minds.”

  John Edwards later denied he was talking about the Clintons.

  Who then, were Obama and Edwards talking about? It is obvious they were talking about Hillary. So why would they backtrack on their statements? They have to be afraid of the Clinton campaign war room. They know that the Clintons are ruthless politicians and will do anything to regain their power and they turned tail and ran away from their comments. I would have more respect for them if they stood by their comments. Then again, Obama didn’t even have the courage to make the comment himself, he had to send his wife out there so he wouldn’t be accused of picking on a girl.

  What kind of leaders would these two men make if they cannot stand up to the fire of the Clinton war room for comments they made? If they back down from Hillary, how can they stand up to the likes of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?
