The American presidential election (37)

The Internet has been a key feature of Barack Obama’s primaries campaign against Hillary Clinton – and could prove critical (especially on fund raising) in his general election fight against John McCain, as explained in this BBC online item.

    Hi Roger, am assuming you wee around during the 1968 assassinations of RFK and MLK. Would be therefore quite interested to get your take on Hillary’s “California June” comments. Merely pointing out historical events or drawing attention to something more sinister?

    Yes, Caroline. I was 20 in 1968 and remember the assassinations with horror. If I needed reminding, there was the recent film “Bobby” [my review here].
    I don’t think that Clinton was being malevolent but I think that she was most unthinking and insensitive.
