Hillary Clintons supporters will not go quietly, it seems. According to a Scripps-Howard report this morning, unnamed backers of Hillary have begun a massive e-mail campaign insisting that she won more votes and is the only electable candidate in 2008. Perhaps, in consideration of the polling free-fall Barack Obama has experienced this summer, they may have a point (via TMV):
A massive e-mail and Internet campaign is under way aimed at derailing the nomination of Barack Obama and making Hillary Clinton the partys standard bearer next week at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.Most of the messages Lowery has received from across the country come from Hillary supporters making the case that she won more voters votes in the primaries, she won bigger states, that Obama won states that wont vote Democratic in November, and that she is the only electable Democrat.
Im not sure how electable Hillary would be, but Obamas looking pretty weak at the moment. Having jettisoned reform, hes not shown any substantial reason why people should vote for him, which has resulted in double-digit swings in several national polls, with Zogby/Reuters showing him five points behind John McCain. The PUMAs may have a point, at least in terms of Obamas prospects.
However, the insurgent campaign among Democrats has an ugly tone to it, according to some who have seen the e-mails:
A pledged Obama delegate, [county party chair Keith] Norman noted that some of the attacks are overtly racist and that in one instance Obama was likened to the Anti-Christ.

'Reporting for Duty'.
“Just wait til Obama goes into the convention trailing in the polls. The Clintons will smell blood in the water.”
Obama has no idea what he’s up against.
Here's hoping Hillary makes a major (but ultimately failed) push for the nomination causing further damage to the D party.
When D's are involved you know it's going to get ugly and shameless. The racist vitriol that's the cornerstone of every democrat's persona will be on full display.
“Recreate ‘68”
This has gone WAY beyond anything that “Operation Chaos” would have ever attempted.
This is arranging the circular firing squad on the flatcar behind the locomotive going off the rails and over the cliff.
Richard M.Nixon WON in 1968 with less help from the Democrats.
I am SO looking forward to THEIR convention...with a bowl of buttered popcorn by my side...earlier when “floor fight” was mentioned, I thought it was just a nice dream, but now I am salivating at the thought!
“Obama was likened to the Anti-Christ.”
Copycats!
Anybody remember when Bill’s assorted attack dogs were sliming everyone in sight, and his response was “y’know, I can’t control what these friends of mine say.”
Looks like there might be trouble. Oh well, I can always use an excuse to buy more ammo...
Yet another Democratic semantics issue....Unity/Division...whatever.
I doubt it-the Anti-Christ has more experience
right, and its not above his pay grade.
Indeed, the Clintoons have been busy. LOl!
What? I dont see any pics of Cougars here. Arent Pumas and Cougars about the same?

Holy Crap! Don’t mention “Operation Chaos”! Those leftists really get destructive when they get angry. We need to ‘redirect’ their energy!
LOL yep that too!
