Thoroughly Vetted

This is an interesting piece from the Huffington Post. It's a reminder of how the tables turn, but not just in showing the familiar, expected gradations of hypocrisy that attend modern political races. What's more interesting is the reminder, towards the bottom of the article, of another example of how the Obama campaign of 2008 mirrors, in many ways, the Clinton campaign of 1992. A young, charismatic leader, all about Hope, with no military experience and a dream of JFK steps out of obscurity to take it all...how can you expect the Clintons to counter that with anything other than hypocrisy. They're fighting their own past.
