By asking for an apology and calling the president of NBC news to threaten debate cancellations on the network and to say "how could you say that to my daughter," that's a brilliant political move with emotion and immediacy to grab mothers supporting Obama. She's basically creating a black cloud out of thin air to overshadow the fact that Obama is winning and winning and winning some more.That said, I'm still voting Dick Lugar.

I'm pissed that she decided to "take a stand" against her "daugher being pimped" - using that terminology. She's "taking a stand" because someone picked on her kid. That's the douchey move - only to be supported in the move by MSNBC and the press at-large. I’m not quite sure what you’re arguing.

Every candidate trots out their children, but everything Hilary does is repeated in the media as another evil move by this evil bitch. They've been doing this to her for 15 years, and it's the number one opponent she'll have - herself, aided by Right Wing interpretations of how she dresses, walks down the street, procreates, or ends a sentence in a preposition. Plus she's a Kerry, she'll jump right into their nets over and over. They don't have this power over Obama, they have to go racist, which doesn't play as well as they think it does. THIS, still plays. Whatever. Every candidate trots out their children, but everything Hilary does is repeated in the media as another evil move by this evil bitch.
