- Barack Obama has come out strong, announcing that he believes Senator Clinton has been dishonest with Democratic voters on many positions, namely her stances on social security and Iran. The offensive marks Obama’s first major foray into attacking Clinton, answering calls of many of his supporters to engage with her. Obama remains points behind Clinton in national and New Hampshire polls, though he is competitive in Iowa. His campaign is trying to balance his message of “a politics of hope” with the requisite debate with his clear competitor. Democrats may not be thrilled that he has raised the social security issue, but his supporters, financial supporters in particular, will view this new approach as long overdue.
- Meanwhile, Clinton has announced she will be hiring upwards of one hundred paid staff in Iowa.
- Candidates from right to left are stating their policies on Iran. The NYTimes.com today has a bit of context.
- In case you missed it, Giuliani is a Sox fan. Coincidence that most of New Hampshire is too?
