Huh?
How on earth can anyone make this about Clinton's gender?

How about that Hillary Rodham Clinton telling white Pensylvania folk that they've just been insulted by the elitist Barack Obama! Are Pennsylvania's god fearing gun lovers so daft that they need Hill to tell them when they've been insulted by one high fallutin Barack Obama? Only a Clinton could be so shameless and pathologically ambitious to paint the first serious African American candidate for president as the elitist. Obama came from a dadless and often momless family and was raised by his granny. Who can forget Bush Sr.’s Willy Horton poster used to scare the white American working class away from Dukakis back in '88, Hill's doing the same now by trying to paint Obama as a Vanderbilt! Wow, what spin! The elitist candidate isn't Anglo-American but African-American! Bill and Hill have made $110 mil the past 8 years. What more proof does anyone need on just whose personal interests the Clinton's politics have served during their careers other than their own? Theirs is not a politics of hope or change, but a politics of dirt to exploit an "opponents" weakness, exploiting that weakness for their own personal gain. Perhaps you've met people like this at work. You are more than competent at doing your job and then some lazy selfish SOB wants to climb on top of you so they don't do the hard work but scheme and cleverly slander you in the presence of those who can forward their careers. The repubs are just as bad when it comes to Obama, old-moneyed military academy McCain and his heiress wife are just as rich as the Clintons, perhaps the Clintons ought to consider switching parties, as they are now pandering to the red-neck faction of the democratic party, the faction that would really be more at home in a "red state", and would more naturally form a part of the Republican base. Knowing now that Hillary Clinton was a gun-toting good-ol’ gal as a girl in Pennsylvania, now trumpeting the American right to bear arms, and that she supports the NRA, really seals the deal for me on her character; for Pennsylvania's sake she's morphed into a female Charlton Heston: she really is the devil in blue dress or whatever color dress she happens to be wearing on any given day. Her response to criticism is to not take a reality check if the criticism was deserved, but to exact revenge and stab her most recently identified enemy in the back. What about that Bosnian yarn she spun and spun until some old news footage proved her to be a liar? Hillary is the personification of a bitterly ambitious human being who's feels she's entitled to lead, and she's the multi-millionaire so many times over, not Obama. Revolting! She still believes the old American adage that there's a sucker born every minute! If she wins Pennsylvania and then goes on to win the nomination she'll prove there is! If Obama loses the nomination this independent voter is going to vote for McCain, he actually did come under fire, unlike the phoney Hillary. The Clintons live in a fantasy world of their own making, their genius is to get their toadies to slavishly believe in their BS.

It has been positive so back off boys
I am from Illinois. I support Hillary Clinton because she is most qualified to be our president. That aside, I think that she has run a positive campaign. Given what I know about Obama things could be much worse. I think it is about time she fought back. Obama has played the racist card one too many times. It was Jesse Jackson, Jr. who played it in SC, not Bill Clinton. Remember when he said... she didn't shed tears for Katrina ... That would be code for she is a racist. Obama is playing good old boy Chicago politics and he has been caught at it.
I am proud of the campaign Hillary Clinton is running. I will continue to work with her until Hillary Clinton is president.

Positive? REALLY?
She has essentially endorsed McCain over Obama, and Clinton supporters consider this positive?

It casts doubt on
his sanity. This smacks so much of the delusional Bush administration it's terrifying!

I think he's an idiot
Didn't Doug Schoen used to be Mark Penn's chief assistant during Bill's 1996 re-election campaign. This guy's almost as dumb as Penn.
If you look at the comments to the post article, there all basically the same things readers telling him how stupid a suggestion and waste of an article that is. In case he hasn't noticed Clinton has already went negative.
Does she pull back from time to time? Sure. Even a lot? Yeah I'll grant you that. But her campaign never manages to stay positive more than a week or so and they go negative every other week. Why do you think she's getting booed every time she brings up the so-called "Bittergate"? Why do you think the polls are showing it hasn't hurt Obama and it's hurting her own numbers when it comes to voters trust? She'd be retarded to adopt these suggestions. They haven't worked so far and they're not going to. It's not 1996 anymore.

Isn't it possible...

Obamaniacs Don't Know What Negative Is
Obamaniacs who think Hillary has been negative have no idea what they're in for from the Republicans. The Clinton campaign has been effectively blocked from saying anything that anyone anywhere can construe as racist, and they have paid a price in attacks from Obama's campaign and the media whenever they have crossed that ill-defined line. Accordingly, Hillary has been totally careful about the Rev. Wright issue and has said very little about it.
The Republicans will not be so constrained. And it won't be McCain who goes on the attack, it will be surrogates and the independent swift-boaters. Obama's campaign will attack these things as racist, but it won't matter. People will listen to their messages of Obama's radicalism, elitism, fraternization with radical ministers, terrorists, etc.
If you think this won't happen, consider this: a bunch of guys with a serious attitude problem with Kerry in 2004 put together the swiftboat effort. They hated Kerry for whatever reasons. Don't you think that a radical, elitist left-wing inexperienced smooth talker is going to generate the same kind of opposition, and then some? There are people out there who think Obama is a Manchurian Candidate, ready to cave on Israel, ready to let the mad Iranian dictator get the bomb, ready to do all kinds of things seriously harmful to patriotic Americans. Obama may be better able to fight back against this kind of thing than Kerry was, but it will damage him severely -- perhaps enough to defeat him.
Of course, you could nominate Hillary . . .
