This morning, the folks at Judicial Watch released “Hillarycare” records obtained from the Clinton Presidential Library. While the documents related to Hillary Clinton’s work as chair of the National Task Force on Health Care Reform combine to shed light on inner workings of the task force, one memo in particular offers a preview of what the 2008 Republican presidential nominee should expect to encounter if/when he faces the former first lady in 2008.
Hillarycare failed because it was a bad plan and not because it lacked an effective communications strategy. Hence, the reason my attention was drawn to page 2 of one of the JW-released documents, a “Confidential” May 26, 1993, Memorandum from Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) to Hillary Clinton entitled, “Health Care Reform Communications.”
Among several objectives listed for the task force’s communications efforts, one of those objectives — “To Undermine Opponents” — contained four bullet points and a warning to which Republican presidential campaign strategists need to pay attention. While the bullet points will be modified for use in the battle for the White House, whoever turns out to be her Republican Party opponent can count on the warning to remain virtually intact:
“LOSE by allowing him even one day without scrutiny.”

THE PUMAS ARE TOTALLY JUSTIFIED …
1. Contrary to what Obamabots say …
Obama and Hillary were in a dead heat,
when the DNC pressured Hillary into not
only conceding, but campaigning for Obama.
2. Obama is once again in a dead heat, but now
with McCain, even though Obamabots act like
Obama has already won (like they did in the
primaries against Hillary). So, this means that
half of the Democrats, and all the Republicans
(3/4 of America) dIdn’t want Obama. Plus, he
didn’t even win the popular vote, and refused a
revote in Michigan and Florida.
3. Obama has the thinnest resume in politics, and
he won state legislature and Senator by
disqualifications of his opponents, not by earned
experience, or votes.
4. Obama’s one claim to fame is being a community
organizer, where he boasts of registering voters.
Then he took their votes away from them, by
disqualifying his opponents on technicalities, prior
to the election.
5. Obama’s mentor of 20 years, was an anti-American
racist … not to mention other unsavory associations.
6. Obama is simply buying the election, since he’s
good at fund raising … hardly a qualification to be
President of the United States.
7. The media never vetted Obama, and they are
giving him a free ride, plus more than twice the
print and air time as McCain, as they did against
Hillary.
8. 90% of blacks are voting for Obama, because he is
black, while the campaign gained ground by
accusing most opponents of racism.
9. Obamabots were, and are extremely nasty and sarcastic
towards Hillary supporters, as well as McCain supporters.
10. Pumas should be applauded for putting country before party …
especially a party that did not represent them, and a party
which highjacked the nomination for Obama.

Gina — I’m not a Hillary Clinton fan. Apparently, however, we share common ground in that neither of us are Obama supporters. Ha ha!
