Oh, For Crying Out Loud

Is Clinton channeling George Bush?

Trying to get rich motherfuckers to form 527 groups to Swift-boat Obama? Getting your campaign minions to throw out every bit of sleaze one can to see if anything sticks? Trying to play the fear card of "I can keep you safe?" The Rude Pundit had a post in which he names Clinton's version of Karl Rove. Is this what she has in mind, copying George Bush's playbook?

This is bringing change, adopting the Republican way of getting things done? How well has that worked for the last eight years?

Here's one measure: George Bush has an approval rating of 19%. 77% of Americans think he is doing a shitty job. When you run a series of divisive campaigns and then run your administration on the same principle of division and hate-mongering, it eventually will come back to bite you in the ass. Der Monkey Fuhrer is learning this lesson, or he would, if he were capable of learning anything.

Is that the model that Hillary Clinton is looking to emulate?
