Throw Them a Frickin' Bone, Why Don't You

Reuters gets it:

Hillary Clinton's attacks on Barack Obama's lack of foreign policy experience provide a model for how Republicans could run against Obama if he becomes the Democratic candidate for U.S. president.

Clinton's attacks, which helped her win Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island on Tuesday in the state-by-state battle for the party nomination, exposed a vulnerability for Obama, who has served only three years in the Senate representing Illinois.

John McCain, who wrapped up the Republican nomination for the November election, is already highlighting his seasoning on national security and would likely assert that Obama is not tough enough to keep America safe.

This was a tactic fellow Republican George W. Bush used in his 2004 re-election campaign against Democrat John Kerry.
Way to go, Hillary.
