The increasingly strident tones of the Hillary campaign have wound up slowly in past weeks like an air-raid siren and is now reaching a climactic shrill register. Time to head to the shelters until the all-clear sounds, I guess. I never expected to read this from the campaign trail:
...Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) mounted a new, more aggressive attack against Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on Sunday, raising direct questions about his character, challenging his integrity and forecasting a sharp debate over those subjects in the days ahead.
Clinton has hammered Obama recently over his health-care proposal, arguing that he is misleading voters because it omits millions of people and would not lower costs. But Sunday, in a dramatic shift, she made it clear that her goal is to challenge Obama not just on policy but also on one of his strongest selling points: his reputation for honesty.
