The Left Coaster answers the hand-wringing, pissing and moaning Democrats who are suddenly all upset that Hillary is using "Republican Talking Points" (i.e., facts unfavorable to the other candidate which Republicans will of course exploit).
Here, then, is the complete list of circumstances in which Obama and his campaign have done the same thing. But of course: under the Clinton rules---for which I also owe a debt to Left Coaster--- it's only wrong if Hillary does it. She uses 'Republican Talking Points'; Obama utters painful truths. Yes, of course. Whatever either one does that is exactly the same; it's always wrong if it's Hillary. Thanks, Left Coaster, for that as well. Civil, but mordant; that is the way I like it.
For the record, I'm voting for whichever Dem takes the nomination because neither, as both concede, could in reason be as bad for the country as John McCain.
