New Obama Surrogate Joe Andrew Goes Negative Right Out Of the Chute

By Big Tent Democrat

The more we hear from Joe Andrew, the less I respect him. Undeterred by the fact that the Clinton campaign has said nothing about him, Andrew decides to go nuclear negative on the Clintons (and his HuffPo post is even worse):

In an interview with ABC News, Andrew says he knows what's coming from his friends at the Clinton campaign. He anticipates the Clinton campaign "will use the same words and the same language to attack me that Republicans used to attack me when I was DNC chair and I was defending Bill Clinton."

"I say this as a longtime participant in old politics," he says. "I've sparred with everyone from Lee Atwater to Karl Rove. . . .The same words will come out of the [Clinton campaign's] surrogates' mouths to attack me that the Republicans used — and that demonstrates the very hypocrisy of the old politics," he says.

More . . .

After this despicable, unprovoked attack, Andrew then has the gall to say:

"We need to unite the party. You can actually be for someone without being against someone else."

You sure can Joe. Why don't you try it some time. Not only is Joe Andrew a fool, he is a nasty, hypocritical fool.

By Big Tent Democrat, speaking for me only.
