Clinton's New Red-Baiting Ad

Sun Apr 20, 2008 at 12:47:53 PM PDT

It's really becoming the campaign of desperation....in the last hour, Clinton's campaign has pulled out all the stops.  First there was a memo outlining the red-baiting campaign Republicans might run against Obama (while failing to highlight Hillary's unusual vulnerabilities in this area).

Now her campaign has released an ad that claims Obama prefers to attack Clinton than answering the "more and more questions" raised about himself.  This is, of course, straight-up Karl Rove bullshit.  She attacks him personally with guilt-by-association smears that don't pass any reasonable smell test and then accuses him of attacking her when he responds with an issue-oriented ad.  

See for yourself.

Obama's Response after the jump...
