Clinton Campaigning 101- Have Dirt- Novak Sticks by Story

Welcome to Clinton Campaigning 101- "Have Dirt on Your Opponents." This type of thing is quitesential Clinton campaigining. We all saw this type of thing in 1992, so why are we surprised now and why shouldn't we believe Bob Novak. This is par for the course. Even the fictionalized Clinton Campaign – Portrayed in the movie, "Primary Colors"- held this type of tactic. Have dirt, or say you have dirt, leak to the press that you have the dirt, and force your openent to quit or slam him with what you have. This is the Clinton Campaign machine in action. We saw it before, so why shouldn't we see it again?

From Foxnews.com:

WASHINGTON — Columnist Robert Novak stood by his story Monday that the Clinton campaign is spreading the word that it's holding back on dishing dirt on Barack Obama, and charged the Democratic frontrunner with playing "Nixon tricks."

Novak, a FOX News contributor, added that he did not believe there were any Republicans behind the effort — as some have alleged since his column was published Saturday — to force Democrats to fight against each other.

Novak's initial report said: "Agents of Sen. Hillary Clinton are spreading the word in Democratic circles that she has scandalous information" about Obama, "but has decided not to use it. The nature of the alleged scandal was not disclosed."

UPDATE: IMAO has published a list of possible Obama Scandals. I think my favorite possible Obama scandal is "He's never actually done drugs. He just said he did so the other politicians would think he's cool."
