Remember that comment from Hillary during the primaries? How she has a lifetime of experience; Mccain has a lifetime of experience; Obama has a speech.
Pissed you off royally at the time, didn't it? Not only for the untruth of it, the snarky nastiness of it; but also, and more importantly, because you knew, you just knew, even then that the Republicans would use it against Obama.
And now they have.
Checking out RealClearPolitics today, I came across this link: "Dems Praise McCain In New Ad."
My heart sank. My gut lurched. I had a very bad feeling about this as I clicked in and read:
A new McCain web ad includes footage of former -- and current -- Democratic candidates for president praising the Arizona senator. Most of the clips used were years old. But the last one shows Hillary Clinton saying during the Democratic primaries that McCain has "a lifetime of experience he will bring to the White House and Senator Obama has a speech he gave in 2002."
Then I watched the ad. It's good, damned good, if you're a McCain supporter. And Hillary delivers the death blow at the end.
Fuck fuck fuckity fuck. Thank you, Hillary.
UPDATE: The Dempire strikes back!
