Senator Clinton fundraises in the best style


Mrs. Clinton seems to be following Howard Dean's cue
I am not thrilled with either party. Both could stand honest competition.

But at least the Republicans are up front with what they want to do. Apparently the Democrats want to hide what they want to do, and then blame the Republicans for it.

Senator Clinton was in her "best" form (free registration required). A couple of quotes really leaped out at me.

"I know it's frustrating for many of you; it's frustrating for me: Why can't the Democrats do more to stop them?" she continued to growing applause and cheers. "I can tell you this: It's very hard to stop people who have no shame about what they're doing. It is very hard to tell people that they are making decisions that will undermine our checks and balances and constitutional system of government who don't care. It is very hard to stop people who have never been acquainted with the truth."

Mmm-hmmm. Tell me again, which party did unprecedented judicial nomination filibusters? Which party has been using every procedural trick they can think of to prevent actual votes on the floor of the Senate and House?

"The press is missing in action, with all due respect," she said. "Where are the investigative reporters today? Why aren't they asking the hard questions? It's shocking when you see how easily they fold in the media today. They don't stand their ground. If they're criticized by the White House, they just fall apart."

Except that same press is not above inventing stories about the White House while overlooking stories about the Democratic leadership.

There is more, much more, but you should read it for yourself.
