New Clinton Strategy?

the washington post says hillary's new strategy is to go negative. is that new? seems to me that's all she's been running on, the kitchen sink. well, get ready folks, it looks like it's going to get nastier as hillary's chances of winning slips away. we should all go on a news hiatus. it might get unbearable.
don't forget -- big debate tonight, obama and annie oakley, 8 pm eastern, abc.

Clinton has provided a compelling case for her candidacy thus far. After all, the superdelegates have the power to end the Democratic contest now and have chosen to wait. At the very least, Clinton has created enough doubts about Obama and his electability to have earned a chance to compete in the next handful of primaries. But Clinton will almost certainly lose the pledged delegate count and the popular vote. To capture the nomination despite these facts she must convince the superdelegates that she is the only candidate who can win against John McCain in November.

too bad about that today's electability poll, which shows obama up in electability.
