Tim Greive has been posting on this in War Room, and his stuff is worth reading.
Choice quote:
But imagine for a moment that it was Barack Obama who stumbled in the face of criticism and pointed questions Tuesday night. Would his campaign dare to declare that it was "ultimately five whites and a Hispanic against him, and he came off as one strong black man"? And how would America be feeling about him today if it did?
Her other meme, the "What happened to the Politics of Hope" line, pisses me off too, because no one is attacking Clinton on personal terms...there's been none of the politics of personal destruction that marked Clinton 42's preseidency. Edwards and Obama (and Dodd) are calling her to task for bad policy, poor leadership, and questionable judgment. That's called 'Debate.' That's called "Politics." That's called "Democracy." It's entirely appropriate, and more than that, it's essential. But Hillary's strategy, it is clear, is to avoid being honest with the American people, and hope she can ride her 'inevitabilty' into the White House. Fuck that.
I hope she gets blown out of the water. I'd take any Democratic candidate and maybe even a Republican over Hillary. This ain't a dynasty, it's a Democracy.'
UPDATE:
Redstatresident has a good diary on this at DKos.

Amen to that.
Rupert Murdoch is 100% behind Hitlery. That should say it all....
Unfortunately, the Hillary camp is taking a page out of the GOP/Israeli Lobby handbook: if you try to get us to discuss the issues, were going to accuse you of prejudice and personal attacks to shift the argument away from the issues. Then we'll use prejudice and personal attacks to get everyone to forget there was even an issue in the first place. Caveman tactics, or cavewoman, in this case.
