Clinton Sharpens Her Attack On Obama

This article I found in the New York Times, is yet another example of how politics get dirty. It is where canidates simply try to prove to the people that they are better than their competition by making the other person they are running against look bad by digging up some sort of dirt on them. Specifically it talks about how Senator Clinton puts down Senator Obama by saying he just speaks words and does not take action, that he just dreams and does not make it become reality, whereas on the other hand she does completely opposite by solving peoples problems instead of talking about them, she in plain terms thinks she makes things happen. Senator Clinton knows she is falling behind Senator Obama, she knows that he is taking on the lead, so she has to do everything in her right mind to stay up with him, even if that means playing dirty. All I have seen lately is "Clinton attacks Obama" in various articles on different sites. I think she should quit bringing Obama down and instead make herself look good by doing something positive. She is also in fact just saying "words" right now instead of taking action.

You've got Mailers!

This article will make you sick to know people will do anything to win. To put this article in a nutshell, it talks about how Clinton's "mailer" twisted Obama's words, making his statements false in some way, not exactly changing his messages completely but twisting his words around. I know when it comes to any kind of competition, especially politics things get quite messy, but to stoop so low to make a false impression of the competitor is flat out wrong. In my opinion if you want to win, make it clean, win with a guiltfree conscience.
