Hillary Goes Negative in Wisconsin about Obama and the Debates
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzGbj_ERlJ0&eurl=http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/02/hillary_hits_obama_with_new_ad.php

Seems to me like a desperate ad from somebody that isnt coming to the state until later in the week.

1. Blowback will find her. This will backfire, like all her other schemes.

2. I think Wisconsin is already in the bag for Obama. She's wasting her efforts there.

3. She needs free airtime with a debate because she is OUT OF MONEY
:rofl:

Maybe I'll do an ad regarding that little sore subject.

5. The Clinton campaign is trying to force Obama to do
more debates than he needs to. He doesn't need to do a single debate here on out and still get the nomination.

She asked for debates last week and he agreed to them.
So this is BS.

7. Mark Penn screwed up again
with yesterdays decision to make an Alamo-like last stand in Texas...it really LOOKED bad, to the Cheese heads that she doesn't seem to care about their state. Penn is worth every penny of that 4.3 million and I think the Obama campaign should pay his salary

8. She's dumb as hell. Every time she goes negative she bleeds support. Every. Time.

9. Works for me
plays right into Obamas message. Out with the old politics of devision. It is time to unite america.

I expect to see a ton of trash coming from her side in the next few weeks. It only exposes her more as the divisive 50% +1 candidate she is.

13. Well, the Clintons don't have enough money to run the ad much so I'm not concerned.
And if that's all they have, it's pretty weak.

Mostly, I agree with your OP that the ad won't make up for her pretty much snubbing the state.

14. Wisconsin Voters didn't watch the 18 debates already held?
Hillary doesn't want to spend money on ads

Hillary doesn't want to have to campaign across the state

Hillary wants to sit in front of the TV camera

Hillary wants to keep Obama from speaking on the campaign trail (doing all these debates) because as soon as the people hear him, she is toast.

Snivel on Hillary!

17. Obama going negative - Obama playing race card - did not hurt him - but media sold
his line and the GOP controlled media will not sell hers as they want Obama and fear Hillary.

This may hurt her - but she would lose Wisconsin anyway via Madison college vote and the usual combination of the Starbucks self employed or wealthy and the AA community that is large in Milwaukee.

The Democratic party has walked away from the working man, in my opinion.

20. African-Americans are not primarily working class?

I do agree with you that the Democratic Party has walked away from the working man.

The best things for the working class are exactly what are best for African-Americans and visa-versa. I hope Obama's years spent helping the Black community will spill over into his administration for this very reason.

I fear they won't. But we shall see.

18. Hillary might as well go negative. She's got nothing to lose!
Sticking to the issues and articulating her policies are getting her nowhere!

She may not get another chance to run for President so she's got to pull out all the stops this time around.

If Sen. Obama was losing, he'd probably do the same thing.

19. After 18 debates, and with two more to come,
I don't think that's going to be a compelling issue for people.
