The Democrat Party Uncivil War (2 of 2)

Hillary Clinton's disparaging comments on the Today Show with Matt Lauer saying that Barack Obama "hasn't done the spadework necessary to be president." come back to haunt her in this narrative of the uncivil war between the Clintons and the Obama camp. Earlier in the week Clinton supporter Andrew Cuomo in referring to Mr. Obama's polished oratory before cameras commented, "You can't shuck and jive at a press conference,...All those moves you can make with the press don't work when you're in someone's living room." Don't think for a moment that these demeaning, personal, and racially tinged jabs by the Clintons and their proxies are accidental. The subtext of their comments and those of their surrogates are meant to tell their major opponent in the Democratic Party, "just who do you think you are?"
