FROM CNN’s Jack Cafferty: The race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama is getting nastier the farther behind Senator Clinton falls. Bill Richardson, the New Mexico governor who endorsed Obama on Friday, is being compared to the traitor Judas. Clinton supporter and CNN political analyst James Carville said that Richardson’s backing of Obama came “right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver.” Richardson served in President Bill Clinton’s administration and is now endorsing his wife’s rival. Richardson says he’s still the Clintons’ friend and refuses to “get in the gutter” like some Clinton people are doing. Richardson says that many in Clinton’s camp think they have a sense of entitlement to the presidency. Meanwhile Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell says Obama is trying to “have it both ways”, accusing his campaign of complaining about negativity while frequently going after Hillary Clinton unfairly. Rendell, who is supporting Clinton, points to remarks by an Obama surrogate, General Tony McPeak, who compared Bill Clinton to Joe McCarthy, the famous Communist witch hunter of the 1950s. McPeak was reacting to remarks by former president Clinton questioning Obama’s patriotism. On Friday, Clinton said quote, “I think it would be a great thing if we had an election year where you had two people who loved this country”… suggesting that would be a match-up between Hillary Clinton and John McCain. With more than four weeks to go to until the Pennsylvania primary, the Democratic Party continues along the path of self destruction, giving John McCain extra time to read up on the economy and learn the difference between Sunnis and Shia. Here’s my question to you: Which of the two Democratic campaigns, Clinton or Obama, occupies the moral high ground? Interested to know which ones made it on air?
