Should we end campaign rallies as Hillary advocates?

"Since when do Democrats attack each other on universal health care? I thought we were trying to realize Harry Truman's dream . . . Just because Senator Obama chose not to present a universal health care plan, does not give him the right to attack me because I did. So, let's have a real campaign. Enough with the speeches, and the big rallies, and then using tactics that are right of Karl Rove's playbook. This is wrong, and every Democrat should be outraged. Because this is the kind of attack that not only undermines core Democratic values, but gives aid and comfort to the very special interests and their allies in the Republican Party who are against doing what we want to do for America. So shame on you, Barack Obama. It is time you ran a campaign consistent with your messages in public. That's what I expect from you. Meet me in Ohio. Let's have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign."

I can't believe she said this. Those flyers have been out for two weeks.

Update:

I figured it out, she doesn't have the money to rent out the arenas, so she wants the rallies to end to be replaced with free debates.

Update 2:

That mailer has been out a long time.

    she sounded like she is extremely jealous of obama's speeches and his "big rallies."

    she criticized obama healthcare at the austin, texas, debate.

    so what is she talking about?

    just pettiness. pettiness to the nth degree.

    What Hillary meant was that Obama sent out the same "Harry and Louise" type mailers that the republicans and drug companies used to stop a previous universal healthcare plan.

    Many democrats including John Edwards & Ted Kennedy have been trying to get universal healthcare passed and Obama used the republican "Karl Rove" style attacks to misleadingly put fear in people. Obama used a repubiican fear tactic which goes against his message of unity - looks like he's using the old scare tactics and division of the past.

    Many newspapers and even Factcheck called Obama's mailer false and misleading.

  • A leopard cannot change it's spots. A person cannot change who they are. Micheal Moore's film "SICKO" shows Hillary in her true light.The others are the same. Type in the name of any candidate and scandal will pop up, with exception to Ron Paul! He is the only candidate that wants to restore the Constitution. The document that made this country what it was before greed took over motives.The ignoring of the Constitution is what put us where we are, and Bush has no intention of of following it.

    Yes, Debra H, that is why people are voting for him, because he is black, that's is why... Caucasian people are scared to go to the primaries and are scared to publicly vote for Hillary...

    After living in those clean well lit streets, the street life gets to you.... I used to live on those horrible streets.... And I was always scared that someone might hit me upside the head with a textbook or a surfboard...

    OH THE OPPRESSION!!!!!

    Get over it....

    She needed to be tougher on him re: this issue, and should of been in the debates. Not only that, she's right. It doesn't matter if she loses. This is going to show him up if he does win. He'll be seen for the empty vessel he is. Then watch him get it from all sides.

    I'm glad she said it... I'm glad she finally is fighting back... He has had it too easy.. the media pussy foots around him.. people don't dare say anything bad about him.. even talk show hosts never ridicule him like they do her.. and why.. he's black.. and that 's the reason and it is not fair to her.

    At last she is getting down and dirty and letting him have it.. and he better be able to take it and not whine.. for if he wins the nomination.. you can bet the Republicans are not going to be as nice as Hillary.. so get ready obmaa.. you are not president yet.

    Obama is drawing huge crowds in Seattle, Boise, Dallas, and in Ohio. 20,000 inside some of these arenas and thousands still can't get in. If I were her, I would want to see an end to them too. Desperation. And honey, its not appealing at all.

    Karl Rove....famous for his race-baiting....exactly what Hillary's camp has been doing. And she's saying Obama is somehow playing Rove-type politics??? I don't get it. She has really gone around the bend.
