Maureen Dowdy, the tip of the preemptive strike spear...

...much as I dislike giving this vicious, whining viper any space in this blog, an Op-ed piece by Ms Dowdy calls for a little finger pointing ---- a portion of what she penned -

"In their narrative of how Hillary lost in The Times on Sunday, Jim Rutenberg and Peter Baker said that Mark Penn argued that Hillary should subtly stress Obama’s “lack of American roots.”
That’s a good preview of how Republicans will attack Michelle, suggesting that she does not share American values, mining a subtext of race.

She’s a devoted daughter, wife and mother who has lived the American dream, from the humble South Side of Chicago to Harvard Law School. Hey, isn’t it totally unAmerican to complain that being a black woman in the ’80s at a class-conscious, white-bread college, Princeton, was somewhat uncomfortable?

Just as Bill and Hillary did the “Pssst! He’s black!” thing on Barry, now the Republicans will use the same tactic on the strong and opinionated Michelle."

Now then Pilgrims, it's test time. Both of the attacks Ms Dowdy outlines in these few words were attacks by the Democrat - Hellary team on Ms Michelle. NOT REPUBLICANS! But somehow- this talentless key board striker manages to convey that this will be the Republican strategy. Do you see where this is going.....?

With this preemptive strike - no matter what the Republicans say or do, Dowdy and her fellow travelers will be able to shriek, "See we told you! - We told you!"

Kinda makes you wonder if she and her ilk just get their marching orders from the DNC, or if they actually have a seat at the meeting table............
