Hillary launches Obama smear site
Part of Hillary's last-ditch effort to hurt Obama's chances in Iowa. Everyone knows that if Obama loses Iowa, he might never be able to recover. :
ABC News has learned that the campaign of Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y.,has registered the names of two Web sites with the express goal ofattacking her chief rival, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.
It's the first time this election cycle a presidential campaignhas launched a Web site with the express purpose of of launchingserious criticisms on a rival.
Votingpresent.com and Votingpresent.org are domains hosted by the sameIP address as official Clinton Web sites, such TheHillaryIKnow.com,which was launched with much fanfare this week.
The Clinton campaign intends to use these new Web sites to paint Obama as cowardly.
Both parties are guilty of running dirty campaigns this election cycle. But portraying an opponent as cowardly? That's pretty personal.
No surprise here, except perhaps how dumb her managers are.
What you see is what you'll get.

*Sigh*
Look, we've had seven years of this kind of Rovian "Search-Attack-Destroy" politics.
We're DEMOCRATS. We're supposed to be the ALTERNATIVE to all that. People are *SICK* of this kind of c**p.
All of the Democratic candidates need a time-out. We need to adopt our own version of the 11th Commandment. Mind you, I wouldn't give you half of a red hot nickel for the entire presidency of that died up old man we elected in 1980, but he was a fair politician.
Democrats of all stripes owe it to the Nation, as well as to Posterity itself to stop trying to kill each other off, and start killing off the opposition party instead.
"We aren't Bush." isn't a campaign.
Neither is two spoiled brats yanking on both ends of the puppy while they squabble about who gets to hold it next.
If the two media darlings leading this out of tune hootinanny don't get it together, we could, can, and will loose both public support AND this election. After that nothing else will matter, because the America we grew up with will be gone all together.
GROW UP SENATORS!!!!! Willya please?
There's just too much at stake for any more of this stupid Kinderspiel between you two.
Tired of it already, with 11 months to go,
Roci
