At a rally in Nashua on Sunday, where Mrs. Clinton spoke to a crowd that was about the same size as Mr. Obama’s one day earlier in the same school gymnasium, she raised questions about his voting record on Iraq.
Follow me to never-never land....
"If you gave a speech, and a very good speech, against the war in Iraq in 2002, and then by 2004 you’re saying you’re not sure how you would have voted, and then by 2005, 6 and 7 you vote for $300 billion for the war you said you were against, that’s not change!" Mrs. Clinton said to a roaring audience.
I am the only one who sees the irony in Clinton criticizing Obama for the same votes that she herself cast?
This criticism, as well as other contrasts of his voting record, came after days of discussions within her campaign about the best way to take on Mr. Obama.
On Thursday night, several Clinton advisers asserted the strategy going forward would be "bombs away" on Mr. Obama. That did not happen, advisers said, because they concluded they had stronger hopes in New Hampshire by employing a positive message, more outreach to young people and sharper contrasts with Mr. Obama.

I'm not sure what 'sharp contrast' is being drawn here when Clinton highlights war funding votes that both she and Obama cast.
But when those 'hopes in New Hampshire' are dashed tomorrow night, I expect we will really see the 'bombs' fly...
