The Democrats' acrimonious primary battle came back to haunt Hillary Clinton yesterday, a day before she sets off on her first solo campaign swing for Barack Obama, with John McCain using footage of her attacking the Democratic candidate in a new campaign ad.

The ad, which was released on the internet, features a number of Democratic leaders - including Obama - offering praise for McCain. But only Clinton, who is the closing speaker, goes so far as to take a jab at Obama, in footage culled from one of her primary rallies.

The ad surfaced a day before Clinton is to step in as Obama's chief cheerleader with a campaign appearance in Nevada today. She is to travel to the pivotal state of Florida next week.

In the new ad released by the Republicans, Clinton is shown saying: "I know Senator McCain has a lifetime of experience that he will bring to the White House and Senator Obama has a speech that he gave in 2002."

More bad news! Die-hard Clinton supporters plan a protest march at the Denver Convention. From one of their websites: "We are 18 million voices dedicated to seeing Senator Clinton reach the next milestone: the White House."

Expect our Main$tream Media to cover the demonstrations instead of the floor speeches. McCain - and the whole goddam right wing noise machine - will be having orgasms!

6. Anyone with a brainstem saw this coming the second she said it.

I don't believe that she's a drooling moron, so she had to know this is exactly what was going to happen too. It didn't matter though, since trying to kneecap Obama was exactly the point.
