Hillary plays the “FEAR” card.

Senator Hillary Clinton is so desperate to become the Democrat nominee for President that she has taken a play out of the Karl Rove playbook and used the “fear” card. Clinton suggests that a Barack Obama presidency would endanger the lives of every American. In the lowest of lows Clinton’s campaign launched a television commercial showing a young child safely sleeping in bed at home while a male voice asks: If a crisis occurred somewhere in the world and the phone at the Whitehouse rang: Who would you want to answer the phone? The implication being that Obama lacks the experience to be President. In the commercial, Hillary is seen answering the phone at 3 a.m. in her pantsuit and reading glasses with the look of a strong confident leader. I suppose the implication is that Obama would be pissing in his pajamas? This would be funny were it not for the fact that Hillary is handing John McCain the key to victory by making a case against Senator Obama. This tactic would be expected of McCain’s camp; for a Democrat to play the fear card at this late date against a fellow Democrat in the campaign is detestable. I highly resent Clinton using this Karl Rove tactic. We’ve had to put up with Geo W playing the FEAR card for seven long years. I am sick of it. All of this puts Obama in an awkward place since he has attempted to run a campaign respectful of his opponents. Clinton apparently feels she is somehow entitled to the presidency and sees it slipping away. This is her last chance and she will do any and everything to win. This is not the kitchen sink strategy. Obama must frame what Clinton is trying to do to him properly and in a way that every Democrat would understand and resent. This is a Karl Rove tactic. Clinton is playing the FEAR card. And it is ironic that her tactic will be used by John McCain against her should she become the eventual nominee. I have therefore made the following decision. Should Hillary become the nominee of our party; I will vote for her ONLY if Barack is on the ticket. If he is not or is asked and chooses not to accept; then I will not vote in this election as a protest. I am disgusted by all of this. I’ve been a loyal Democrat all of my adult life. I voted for Bill Clinton and every Democrat since. I would have freely voted for Hillary. That was what I said I would do should she win the nomination. That was then. Now she has resorted to the kind of campaign tactics that I despise. We need a change. Barack Obama is the only way to break from the politics of old.
