Powers that be
I read through the article in which Obama campaign adviser Samantha Power called Hillary Clinton a monster. I don't really think this is a big deal, no more so than the negativity that has come from the Clinton camp.
What struck me was this statement by Power on Clinton's stumping: "...if you are poor and she is telling you some story about how Obama is going to take your job away, maybe it will be more effective."
I find this sort of statement infuriating. She is implying that poor people and the working class are too stupid to know when they are being lied too, that they are willing to accept a candidate's rhetoric out of fear.
Ms. Power is a Harvard professor and I bet just the sort liberal snob that has made the Democratic Party so unattractive to working people for so long.
