Hillary to step up campaigning against Palin

[meegbear]

I was telling Digby that I hope Hillary will step up against Palin.

Mrs. Clinton’s friends said she was galled that Ms. Palin might try to capitalize on a movement that Mrs. Clinton, of New York, built among women in the primaries….Guy Cecil, the former political director of Mrs. Clinton’s campaign, said it was “insulting” for Republicans to compare Ms. Palin to Mrs. Clinton.

“It is insulting to compare Hillary’s lifetime of service and her commitment to progressive causes with that of a novice, right-wing governor,” Mr. Cecil said.

This should be interesting.

1. Are they going to accuse Hillary of sexism?

I wouldn't doubt it.

2. Wow.

Now if Hillary is pissed, there will be no stopping her in attacks against the repubs. We all remember how she stood up to them in the 90's, during the Whitewater farce. She has proven time and again that she is smarter than they are, and now I think she is about to prove that she is also meaner than they are, but in a smart way.

3. This would be the smartest thing

Hillary Clinton could do. Talk about galvanizing her base! She could come off as absolutely heroic, doing something that only she - Hillary Clinton, losing candidate - can do.

Oh, I'd love that. I'd really, really love it.

Bet she does.

4. Damn - I'm going to get the beer & popcorn ready

This is going to be fun. Hillary - you go girl! Sarah won't know what the hell hit her!

:popcorn: :toast: :kick:

5. She should be very richly rewarded.

I think Hillary Clinton could play a very, very pivotal role in advancing a progressive agenda.
