Well everyone, tonight is expected to be an exciting one. Tonight's Democratic Presidential Primary Debate on MSNBC (9pm EDT, 6pm PDT), will be the first since Senator Clinton's Democratic rivals have really stepped up the attacks against her. She will be forced to be on the defensive for most of the night, as attacking Clinton and using her as a political punching bag seems to be the last resort option for her opponents with falling poll numbers.
Luckily for us, Clinton can duke it out with the best of 'em. No worries, she'll dish it right back. Another thing we can expect however is for Clinton to not attack her opponents like they will attack her. Despite Sen. Obama's promise for a new breed of politics, or "politics of hope" as he is calling it--Clinton as you will all see, will be the one practicing this new kind of politics. She has done it throughout this campaign. She has apparently decided out of respect for her Democratic opponents, to focus on her record and what she plans to do for the country, instead of what the other candidates won't do and haven't done in the past. She feels that most of the American electorate is smart enough to make the decisions about which one will be the best Democratic candidate, on their own. Voters have been very responsive to the way Clinton has been running her campaign, as you all have seen with her staggering rise in the polls. There will be plenty of time for things to get nasty in the general election, because often there's just no way to avoid it during that time. So expect Senator Clinton to reiterate her message to voters, and largely brush off the baseless attacks from her opponents.
