Better Lame Than Never

At first, Hillary Clinton refused to take on Sarah Palin directly. But now the gloves are off:

Campaigning for Barack Obama in battleground Ohio, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton singled out Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin on Sunday by using a revised applause-line delivered at last month’s Democratic convention.

Clinton told about 1,650 supporters in an Akron high school gymnasium that Palin and Republican presidential nominee John McCain would only continue the failed policies of President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.

“To slightly amend my comments from Denver: No way, no how, no McCain, no Palin,” she said as the audience cheered.

OK, maybe the gloves aren’t so much off, as… um… still on. To me this looks like more passive-aggressive sabotaging of the Obama campaign by Team Clinton.
