And another thing
by jbentley4
It seems to me that it has been Hillary has been the one doing most of the slamming of other people's records. Her most recent quip was that Barack Obama's record consists of being "a part-time state senator for a few years, and then he came to the Senate and immediately started running for president." It seems that she is the one (and Bill and Terry McAuliffe et al) who might be guilty of being "elitist and credentialist and regionalist" by belittling Obama's two decades as a civil rights lawyer, community organizer, teacher and legislator in Chicago and Springfield, which by the way, are from minor league political arenas. In fact, Obama has held political office longer than Hillary. Finally, I think it is disnengenous for Hillary, Bill or anybody else in her camp to accuse Barack Obama of being overly ambitious.
