Deploying Hillary
QandO — ... On the other hand, Clinton has all but been rejected by the Obama campaign until now. Will her sudden deployment be seen as a cynical attempt to woo those voters Palin appeals too after all but telling her she wasn’t wanted previously? As Amy Holmes notes: ...

Palin versus Hilliary Clinton
USS NeverdockErm, shouldn't that be Palin versus Biden? "So, let’s get this straight. They didn’t choose her and her 18 million voters to put on the ticket. They gave the VP spot to Joe Biden. But now that Sarah Palin has arrived on the political scene, they’re promoting Hillary as the female answer to the Republican VP nominee. Awkward, to say the least."

Really weird logic by Team Obama
Hyscience — Come to think of it, they've got to be nuts. Take a gander at this excerpt from CNN's Amy Holmes, Girl Fight (HT Forward Movement): So, let's get this straight. They didn't choose her and her 18 million voters to put on the ticket. They gave the VP spot to Joe Biden. But now that Sarah Palin has arrived on the political scene, they're promoting Hillary as the female answer to the Republican VP nominee. Awkward, to say the least. And as one female democratic strategist tells me, don't think that Hillary hasn't ...
