Newsday’s Tom Brune reports recent punches and counter-punches between McCain-Palin and Obama-Biden tickets, while get this: Hillary Clinton – not Barack Obama – demonstrates superior judgment by transcending the old politics of both parties out on the campaign trail.
Brune writes:
“COLORADO SPRINGS - Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin yesterday challenged the reform credentials of her Democratic counterpart, Joe Biden, contrasting his many years and many friends in Washington with her reputation as a reformist outsider.
“Yet as the McCain campaign attempted on its post-convention swing West to wrest the issue of "change" away from the Democrats, Barack Obama for the first time yesterday took a shot at Palin, scoffing at her boast that she's an anti-earmark "champion."
‘“Obama's former Democratic primary rival Hillary Rodham Clinton once again brushed aside questions about Palin yesterday as she marched with labor and stumped for Democrats in Manhattan and Staten Island. ‘This election is about issues,’ she said.”’
