Too freekin bad! Being a woman didnt stop either Hillary or Sarah from attacking Obama full speed!

Her career is over.
Read the article first...........

And when the primary ended, it was a privilege to help Michelle Obama with a stump speech, be considered as a speechwriter for the V.P. nominee again, and send friends in Chicago ideas until the financial crisis hit.

This is what the Democratic Party has been for me; it’s family. Now, it doesn’t even feel like a distant cousin.

Ick. She doesnt sound very professional. This is politics, Wendy....

"There is doubt, especially about people. How could the same man who pulled me to the front of the plane near tears as he told me his wife had cancer string together all these lies? How could I have been so stupid to defend his character after Bob Shrum's book was published? And every career decision made since I left Senator Hillary Clinton's office in 2003 is in question. Those years and work now seem so wasted."

Title of this thread should be "One of Obama's speechwriters.... I'm sure he has others. Didn't Hillary's entire campaign staff leave her at one point?

It happens. Moving on.

Typical, someone from the right votes left and they "wakeup" someone from the left, moves right and they are a "traitors" or "idiots".. I wondered how long before the smear tactics would begin.. Didnt take long!!

Interesting that someone who writes speeches for a living is such a disorganized writer - at least in this example.

Also interesting how she sets the stage, pretty much whining right from the beginning about being under-appreciated by all of the 'boys'.

Rather than simply accepting that she probably wasn't a good 'fit' for the campaign, she decides to play the victim and project her victimization onto Sen. Clinton and Gov. Palin, both of whom appear, at least to me, well-able to play ball with the big boys.

Yet another instance of 'if I can't play by my rules, I'm taking my ball and going home.'
