lawrocket 3 #1 March 18, 2008 Does it seem like there is a new type of "kindness" associated with smear politics? So Geraldine Ferraro makes some comments perceived to be (probably intended to be). Hillary apologizes. Bill Clinton makes some smearing-type comment. Hillary apologizes. Obama staff refers to Hillary as "democrat - Punjab." Obama apologizes. Obama says troops' lives "wasted." Obama apologizes. Okay. So who remembers the apologies? Very few. Who remembers the nasty comments? Everyone. What a great way to run a smear campaign and seem "nice" at the same time. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

idrankwhat 0 #4 March 18, 2008 The "new" method of political campaigning that I dread is the "ad infinitum campaign". How long after the election this fall do you think it will be before the next campaign starts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
