"...And just for the record, the only one of the three frontrunners refusing to cave in to the wingnut spin is none other than Hillary Clinton, the one person more vilified than Obama and the Edwardes combined. Hillary Clinton knows what it means to be the target of wingnut attacks and she has no intention of falling prey to their trap. She remembers and learned well from the 1990s, where if she had caved as the wingnuts wanted and planned it is quite possible that Bill Clinton would have been done in by a consensual sexual affair. Think about what Bush has gotten away with and the thought of such a thing now seems completely impossible. For those of us who wrote about the Lewinski brouhaha, I assure you it was not. In fact, given the cave in of both the Obama and Edwards camps on the MoveOn.org ad, I can imagine Obama and maybe even John Edwards giving a Lieberman style speech of moral indignation on the Senate floor.
As for Hillary Clinton, not even when attacked by Rudy did she cave. This is after she also not only sent Howard Wolfson out to defend YearlyKos on Bill O'Reilly, but she also has turned every single question about the MoveOn.org ad back into the face of the Republicans and Bush where it belongs. That says a lot about her. It also could be the reason Obama and Edwards can't catch her."

i'd expect no less, she's been sleeping with the master for over 30 years.
True. Sen.Clinton gained some more points on my scale with this move and Edwards and Obama lost. I still think Edwards is the best choice, but I am feeling more and more comfortable with Clinton and less and less comfortable with Obama. On the GOP side, only Ron Paul interests me.
