In Clinton's defense, it's not as if the candidate signs off on crap like this - they don't even see the stuff before it goes out, it's handled by a direct-mail consultant. Whoever did sign off on it should be publicly shitcanned. But Aravosis (who's rabidly anti-Clinton) is presenting this as if there's been a long series of similar attacks, and there hasn't. Saying it doesn't make it so. You’re right, that’s disgusting if this was on purpose.

We are not Republicans and we do not take lightly this kind of thing: http://www.americablog.com/ (See blog on Obama's unusual darkness in the second piece down, under the McCain piece) When you run the kind of sleazy campaign that Clinton is running, how much “help” is needed to destroy your campaign.
