Poor Hillary Clinton. First, drinking coffee with friends leads to a nervous breakdown on national television. Then, she is humiliated further yesterday when her husband, the President of the United States, is challenged to a dance-off with Senator Obama on Dancing with the Stars.
But none of that compares to the news today that a new and potentially powerful grassroots organization has taken up arms against her, and they are about to do so in the most offensive way possible.
Roger Stone, a Republican operative and famed Nixon dirty trickster, infamous for once bribing a New York politician to throw the state's Presidential votes to Ronald Reagan in 1980, has started a new political group that will be much more controversial than John Kerry's nemeses the Swift Boat Vets. The group? Citizens United Not Timid. (Hint: the problem isn't the words...)
They'll be selling the summer's hottest t-shirts this year.
UPDATE: Here's a link to the official Citizens United page.
