Democrat colleague Terry McAuliffe said Mr Clinton had participated in a conference call on earthquake relief efforts as he was wheeled into the operating theatre.
We’ll take Terry’s word on that. But, Big Government has learned of at least one other conference call/meeting around this time. A meeting of former Clintonistas and senior Democrat political operatives to coordinate a push-back to the burgeoning tea party movement. Consider it a Democrat party relief effort.
When tea party, 9/12 and townhall protests and rallies first erupted on the national scene, they were derided by national politicos as astroturf or a small fringe movement. Lefty journalists at MSNBC, CNN and elsewhere laughed away the movement with derogatory, pornographic references.
Then, Scott Brown won election to the U.S. Senate from Massachusetts. No one is laughing anymore. In fact, Democrats are facing political annihilation this November. Not only do Democrats face the possibility of losing their congressional majorities, massive losses in state house races could jeopardize redistricting next year and set back the progressive agenda for at least a decade.
So, the Clinton Empire is planning to strike back.
Big Government has learned that Clintonistas are plotting a “push/pull” strategy. They plan to identify 7-8 national figures active in the tea party movement and engage in deep opposition research on them. If possible, they will identify one or two they can perhaps ‘turn’, either with money or threats, to create a mole in the movement. The others will be subjected to a full-on smear campaign. (Has MSNBC already been notified?)
Big Government has also learned that James Carville will head up the effort.

James Carville and his commie comrades of cheap and untrue political destruction should be hung for treason!

What Billy-Jeff doesn't understand is what the tea party represents -- and that is independent thinking. There is not a leader. There are not followers. This is a movement the likes of which they have never seen before. Attempt the attack, and they will be attacking everyday Americans. I have a feeling that is not going to work out too well for them.
Morons.

James Carville is a top-shelf campaign pit pull. He is good at what he does. Is he sleazy as all get out? sure. However, he knows how to play the game.
That said, he is dead wrong on this approach.

Eh, a little thing like common sense has never stopped them before, why should it now?
I say bring it on. Attacking private citizens hasn't worked particularly well for hussein and the thugocracy, and it should be no different for the Clinton "machine".
Somebody needs to tell Bill that it ain't 1992 anymore. :-)

Go ahead, Jimmy-boy, and try this approach -- I dare ya. Picking off dems in the Nov '10 elections will be like shooting fish in a barrel! :evillaugh:

No one wants to side with people who have the mentalities of 7th graders.
"Teabaggers! Dur hur! That's funny because it's a sexual reference! Dur hur! That joke will never get old! Dur hur! We'll just keep repeating it and repeating it and it will only help us and hurt the teabaggers! Dur hur!"
Who's laughing now, jackasses? That would be us.

Does the Democrat party really want to be seen as anti-tea party? I'm not a Beltway insider, but wouldn't they be smarter trying to embrace at least some of the points of this movement?
If it's The Dems vs. Tea Party, Dems lose.
