“A day after a debate of mostly warm feelings and happy talk, the fight to win Nevada’s Democratic caucus turned intense again Wednesday, with the campaign of New York Sen. Hillary Clinton acting as the aggressor on many fronts. A Clinton policy aide hosted a call to attack her chief opponent, Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, on health care and Clinton backers pushed a story claiming that the Culinary Union intimidated its members to get them to support Obama, whom the union endorsed last week. The alleged victim of the one incident cited, however, later told the Sun the perceived pressure may have been a misunderstanding.”
“On the other side, the Culinary continued to mobilize on Obama’s behalf and has questioned whether a Clinton-affiliated rival union is abiding by campaign finance law. The 60,000-member Culinary Union attacked Clinton in fliers on immigration, the Iraq war and labor issues.”
Just asking…Is Bill Clinton now the Bobby Knight of politics? “A riled-up Bill Clinton got in the face of a tenacious San Francisco TV reporter who pressed him about lawsuits by Hillary Clinton's Nevada supporters seeking to ban Las Vegas casinos from serving as caucus sites on Saturday -- a perceived boon to union-backed rival Barack Obama,” the New York Daily News writes. ‘You have asked the question in an accusatory way,’ Clinton fumed, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. ‘If you want to take that position, get on the television and take it. Don't be accusatory with me. I had nothing to do with this lawsuit,’ he added, just inches from the reporter's face.”
