The GOP attack plan for Hillary Clinton
If Clinton beats the odds and wins the Democratic nomination, Republicans will say she stole it. And then they'll try to give voters a 1990s flashback.
By Mike Madden [2008-03-26]

  • Need to get Bill out of the picture.

    Bill Clinton left the White House with his popularity intact, even after his antagonists tried -- and failed, resoundingly -- to remove him from office.

    It seems to me that while Clinton did indeed serve for 8 years he effectively lost the election for Al Gore in 2000, and effectively gave Bush the incumbent boost in 2004.

    I like Hillary Clinton and will vote for her in November if she is the candidate. I don't say that in a "hold my nose" sort of way.

    My problem with her campaign is that Bill is so central to it. I had to unsubscribe from her mailing list because everything I was getting was FROM Bill Clinton. I simply don't want to hear from him.

    I think the attack plan would simply be to watch when Bill comes to the surface and call attention to him. Post 1998, the GOP has proven that they can't oust him from office, but they can beat "him" in a general election... all they have to do is make people feel like he's running.
