Hey, Iowa, I guess we are at the top of the Clinton Enemies List - Be Afraid!

Political Memo
Those Loyal to the Clintons Take Note of Who Was Not

By MARK LEIBOVICH
Published: June 11, 2008

WASHINGTON � Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton was gracious in her full-throated endorsement of Senator Barack Obama. But that does not mean all is forgiven by others in the Clinton universe.

-snip-
Several names and entities are common among various list makers. The lineup invariably begins with A-list members like Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico; Representative James E. Clyburn of South Carolina, the House Democratic whip; Gregory B. Craig, Mr. Clinton�s lawyer in his impeachment and trial; David Axelrod, Mr. Obama�s chief strategist; Senator Claire McCaskill of Missouri; and several Kennedys. Some members of the Democratic Party�s rules committee, the state of Iowa and the caucus system in general are also near the top.

1. Oh shucks.

(Wait ... Debi, do you or Mr. Debi think that this would have any negative effect on Iowa Caucus placement in '12?)

4. Not if Obama is our 44th President

Then the Jr. Senator of New York will have no influence on the calendar......

Yes, the Clintonians took names but will hopefully not be in a position for vengeance.

3. Well, I will get flamed for this but........

in the words of FDR "I welcome their hate".
She was flat out out organized and out maneuvered in Iowa, plus she acted like we didn't matter. Hillary lost in Iowa by her own work just as Obama won by his own work.

She has no one else to blame, but herself, for that doozey of a campaign she ran in Iowa.
