I Hope You're Right, Sen. Obama

As noted here, Barack Obama was recently interviewed by Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes and stated that he could “withstand any last-minute ‘swift-boat’ attacks from Republicans on his race or past drug use because winning the grueling contest for the Democratic nomination will make him the "toughest, baddest candidate on the block."

Well, if he emerges as the Democratic party nominee (and I’m still going back and forth between him and HRC, just to let you know; both are admirable in their ways and on balance good candidates, but both have baggage that’s making me think long and hard), he’ll have a chance to put that bravado to the test.

This tells us that another well-funded freeper attack group called Citizens United (sorry - I know I shouldn't give these clowns a link, but this explains them a bit) has not only put together a hit movie on Hillary Clinton (including interviews with every one of the “usual conservative suspects” that you can imagine), but they are preparing one on Obama also, purporting to critique his days as a community organizer, state legislator and U.S. senator.

Anyone who didn’t see this coming must also believe that “The Path To 9/11” was an actual documentary (and yes, the propagandist behind that one is involved with the Clinton movie also – he’ll probably end up involved with the Obama smear as well).
