Yes, H80. election strategy has changed. In those years, election was all about which candidate could dig up the worst possible dirt on the other(s).
Times have changed; and each time Hillary goes down this path, she sends more support (and superdelegates) to Obama.
Why is it that Obama has chosen not to even touch Bad Billy and his indiscretions to use against Hillary? I'll tell you: America doesn't want to even hear any more of this crap!

The way LBJ won the 1964 election, he waged a dirty campaign against Goldwater when he was behind. It got him four more years of Vietnam to worry about.

Anyone see the video from 2 years ago where Obama says he won't be running for pres in 08 because he lacks experience? He says that he believes when someone goes in for a job interview, they she know how to do the job, and that is why he wouldn't be running. So what changed? 2 years experience seems to be enough now. That is the interview that the Clinton campaign should be playing repeatedly. Why aren't they?

And you are representative of the sentiment today in America. Let the candidates talk about issues; and not about personal attacks. When they stoop to this level; they turn off their supporters.

You can all be assured that there will be more personal attacks to come. Does anyone think that after the primaries are over, and whoever garners the most delegates, would it be a case of kiss and makeup with Hillary and Obama? I haven't heard it was this bad.

For whichever one of them wants to continue in politics, yes; they are going to have to kiss and make up, and go on when they lose.

Don't you remember how McCain kissed Bush's butt after he became the Republican nominee in 2000? The way that the Bush campaign smeared McCain?
