You Go, Geffen!
You Go, Geffen!: "And then Geffen spoke up. Suddenly Democrats all over the country may be thinking to themselves, 'Well, what about that? Why exactly do we have to be for Hillary anyway? Shouldn't we consider some alternatives?'
Once unleashed, this series of thoughts is subversive. So much of the Hillary Clinton candidacy depends on an aura of inevitability, supported by oodles of money and a fear of retribution if you're not on board. But what if she's not inevitable? And what if the retribution isn't so all-powerful?
That's what is now being tested. Now that it has been raised, the thought that Hillary isn't the ideal nominee might spread. Hence Team Clinton's need to enforce omertà. Hillary's attack dog, Howard Wolfson, couldn't even take the time to do some basic fact-checking before rushing out an attack email demanding Obama denounce the remarks of Geffen, 'his campaign's finance chair.' But Geffen is not and has never been Obama's finance chair. He has no official role in the Obama campaign."
