Hilla(R)y

Clinton continues doing her best impression of a Republican.

Politico reports that the latest of her 5 negative mailers attacks Obama on guns.

Hillary Clinton has re-opened her sharp attack on Barack Obama's position on guns, with a mailer in Indiana that seeks to raise questions about him with both supporters and opponents of gun rights.

[...]

The piece is particularly striking coming from Clinton, who has been seen for most of her career as a firm advocate of gun control, but more recently has emerged -- without dramatically shifting her stance on specific issues -- as a defender of the Second Amendment who fondly recalled being taught to shoot by her grandfather in Scranton.

Remember this bit about negative mailers from just before the Ohio primary?



Can anyone tell me where this campaign stands on anything these days?

And a minor and maybe pointless detail: Politico also caught a gaffe in the photo used in the ad. By reversing the picture, the gun used becomes "a nonexistent left-handed model of the Mauser 66 rifle."

Val Forgett III, president of Navy Arms in Martinsburg, W.Va. said sportsmen would notice the goof.

“I find it laughable on its face,” he said. “It’s like a picture of Babe Ruth hitting right-handed.”
