Hillary Spins South Carolina; Uses Florida As Wedge

How can she be so transparently shameless?

Regardless of todayâ€™s outcome, the race quickly shifts to Florida, where hundreds of thousands of Democrats will turn out to vote on Tuesday.

Despite efforts by the Obama campaign to ignore Floridians, their voices will be heard loud and clear across the country, as the last state to vote before Super Tuesday on February 5th.

Don’t forget that the ENTIRE Dem field disowned Florida because that’s what the DNC mandated last year. Now Hillary’s trying to change the rules and it just might work. Especially now that Senator Bill Nelson is poised to endorse her.

Folks, the statements coming out of this campaign literally have me in disbelief. They are so Rovian, so full of dishonest spin, it’s not just sad…it’s tragic. I sit here, going through these news stories and I just can’t believe that this is coming from my own party. With each passing day her and her campaign give us fresh evidence that she represents all that is wrong with politics in America today.

And to that point, here’s an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times that talks about how the right might have been right about the Hill & Bill show…

Going into the campaign, most of us liked Hillary Clinton just fine, but the fact that tens of millions of Americans are seized with irrational loathing for her suggested that she might not be a good Democratic nominee. But now that loathing seems a lot less irrational. We’re not frothing Clinton haters like … well, name pretty much any conservative. We just really wish they’d go away.

Indeed. But I’ve got a bad feeling that this campaign of deceit is working. Super Tuesday is so very close and unless Barack can pull out some stunning victories, well, I don’t really want to think about it right now…
