I think that's how I've gone from really liking Clinton just a few months ago to feeling increasingly squeamish about her. First it was the gas-tax holiday, now it's comparing the FL and MI fight to the civil rights movement (the cvil rights movement? psst, hello, way to offend the BLACK GUY RIGHT OVER THERE!), when obviously she didn't feel this way until she *needed* to feel this way to win. That's made clear in this Tim Russert snippet:
Maybe I'll eventually find out that Obama just says whatever he needs to say, too, no matter how intellectually dishonest and misleading (like this recent doozy from McCain), but I haven't seen it yet. I'd still vote for her if she wins (i.e., is awarded the nomination by the super-delegates), but she clearly is willing to say anything that suits her needs, even when it directly contradicts not just logic but what she's pledged in the past.
