Rep. Wasserman Schultz goes after Palin for her suggestion that Obama should have picked Hillary

Obama Campaign Statement From Rep. Wasserman Schultz

“Sarah Palin should spare us the phony sentiment and respect. Governor Palin accused Senator Clinton of whining and John McCain laughed when a questioner referred to her by using a demeaning expletive. John McCain and Sarah Palin represent no meaningful change, just the same failed policies and same divisive, demeaning politics that has devastated the middle class,” said Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

[elkston]

2. Go Deb! She has been one of the best surrogates from day one. (eom)

[mikiturner]

3. Rep. Wasserman Schultz has gone way up

In my book. She may be the most effective surrogate out there.

[Cha]

8. She was awesome at the Dem Convention and

now is like Gold with palin out there flingin' lies and shit.

[TwilightGardener]

9. Yep--during the primary wars, I didn't much care for her, but she's just

been a champ for Obama.

[RollWithIt]

13. During the Primaries she was supporting Clinton.. and did a good job of it....

Now she's supporting Obama and doing a fine job...

[Raine]

20. Same here

I was for Obama and she was for Hillary. Now she is just as enthusiastic about Obama, she's GREAT....when she's on your side...she's really on your side! :thumbsup:

5. K&R

[Cha]

6. So palin is throwing more shit up in the air

to see what sticks and what comes down on her head.

Everybody knows exactly what she's doing with this "Obama should have picked Hillary". Thanks Debbi Wasserman Schultz! Give it right back to her.

7. It's this whole pretending to be psychic thing the McCain camp needs to be HAMMERED on.

First they claim that Obama meant that the "lipstick on a pig" comment was directed at Palin. Then when that was thoroughly smacked down, they claimed that the audience took it that way because they laughed so heartily at Obama's comment and that Obama should have realized it and chastised his audience for laughing. :eyes: Now they're claiming to be able to read Obama's mind that he wished he picked Hillary.

Excuse me while I laugh in your faces, Republicans.

[spooky3]

10. Short and to the point! Every Dem. needs to do the same.

[donna123]

11. you go Debbie!

we need more women speaking out like this! I understand why Hillary won't, the media would have a field day and start a three ring circus but others doing it is great!

[Cosmic Charlie]

12. Dueling Debbie leaves another in the Dust

[1corona4u]

14. YEAH Debbie!!

[jillan]

15. And this is coming from a die-hard Hillary supporter.

Thank you Debbie!!!

[texasleo]

16. needs to be in every fucking ad!

[Bigleaf]

17. She should have added: "Having said that, it would also have been great had Senator Clinton

been chosen to be the VP nominee on the Democratic ticket. At least then there would have been one qualified woman running for VP."

[donna123]

19. yeah, but Hillary's OVERQUALIFED :)

[still_one]

18. I must take my hats off to the Clinton's and their supporters /nt

She was a total Hillary shill during the primaries but has now become one of Obama's most outspoken defenders. :loveya:

[symbolman]

26. I've reduced their Titles to make it easier for their team to run

the new Clean, Lean McCain team aka

POW/MIA :)

29. Wasserman-Schultz has been an outstanding surrogate

I almost began a thread to thank Debbie the other day after watching her tear apart a republican on Hardball. She's a relentless hard-hitter and doesn't mealy-mouth around. Bam!

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz :toast:

[Uncle Joe]
