Hillary to Help Obama By Attacking Palin, How Will Media Report It?

Want to know just how scared of Sarah Palin the left are?

Hillary Clinton has apparently accepted a request by the Obama campaign to attack the Alaska governor.

Talk about politics making strange bedfellows. 

Of course, being a Clinton, there's got to be something in it for her as was made clear in the following report by the British Times Online (emphasis added):

It seems only yesterday that Hillary Clinton was battling against Barack Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination. But when she hits the campaign trail in Florida tomorrow Clinton’s target will be Sarah Palin, a new threat to her ambition to be the first woman elected to the White House.  [...]

A prominent Democratic strategist, Tad Devine, said: “The strategic imperative right now is to do something about Palin and prevent her cutting through the race. She is practising the same slash and burn politics of division of the Bush years. Hillary Clinton can make the charge that Governor Palin represents the far right.”

Palin has taken aim squarely at the 18m voters who preferred Clinton to Obama during the primary campaign. [...]

Clinton, who has lived through the women’s movement, intends to frame the race in terms of a double-barrelled McCain-Palin threat to issues that women care about such as the right to an abortion, equal pay and universal healthcare, according to the Florida congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

As such, she will be joining the roster of prominent women deployed by Obama to such good effect against Clinton herself during the primary campaign. Politicians such as Kathleen Sebelius, the governor of Kansas, Claire McCaskill, the Missouri senator, and Janet Napolitano, the governor of Arizona, have made the case that women could in good conscience vote for Obama rather than Clinton.

Now they are using the same tactics against Palin. [...]

If Clinton fails to stop her now, she could get trampled.  

Fascinating. So, according to this British publication, it suddenly has become imperative to Hillary's political future that she stop Sarah Palin, thereby making it necessary for her rival to win.

Will our media broach this subject? How will it play here that a supposed feminist is trying to help two men win an election when they're competing against a woman?

Stay tuned.
