 Let Hillary 'Swiftboat' Hillary

By: Richard H. CollinsInstead of an exciting “national primary” that would bring clarity and momentum to a thus far muddy and unpredictable race for the Democratic nomination, Super Tuesday brought a rather anti-climatic draw. Barack Obama failed to achieve the clear upset but he did fight Hillary Clinton to a draw on the night she had hoped would wrap up the nomination. In the ever-changing expectations game, Obama did very well based on where he was just a few weeks ago, but not as well as he may had hoped based on the over-heated expectations of the days leading up to Super Tuesday. It seems that just when the media decides he may be poised for the historic upset those very same unrealistic expectations doom him to an underwhelming showing. But a couple of the factors behind Hillary’s success so far have to make Democrats nervous. The very nature of the Democratic Party, for example, prevents Obama from going after Hillary on the unsavory scandals that plagued her husband’s time in the White House or the myriad of conflicts of interest his post-presidency has created. Obviously, Republicans in the general election will have no such problem. Also, it has to be troubling that the Democratic primary contest has basically come down to a battle of identity politics. The first problem is one Hillary spends a lot of time denying for obvious reasons. She is running as the Democrat best suited to withstand the infamous “GOP Attack Machine.” She remarked that she would not allow anyone to “swift boat this country's future" implying that she knows how to respond when the mud starts to fly.
