So far, the only "Editor's Choice" letter regaring this article is from Jaben, and it spreads false information about Clinton and Obama's respective records in the Senate. I should point out that a Google search reveals that this letter has appeared elsewhere on the internet, in blog posts and letters columns, and is clearly being spread by misguided Obama supporters as "talking points." (It is so preposterous that I do not believe it comes from the Obama campaign, who, if they had stooped this low, would at least have done a much more competent job.)
If you actually go to the Library of Congress's Thomas search engine, as the letter suggests, you will find that Clinton's name is currently on 150 pieces of legislation, Obama's on 113. The idea that she has only contributed to twenty, and he to over eight hundred, is false and frankly ridiculous. Interestingly, the letter gives the Thomas URL incorrectly, perhaps in hopes that no one will check on its ludicrous claims. Clicking my signature should take you there.
