Sen. Hillary Clinton at the St. Patrick's Day Parade March 15 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty: Barack Obama's campaign suggests Hillary Clinton will do just about anything to win, and that includes destroying the Democratic Party. The Politico reports that Obama's chief strategist David Axelrod calls Clinton "the ultimate Washington inside player" who keeps trying to change the rules: "When they started off, it was all about delegates. Now that we have more delegates, it's all about the popular vote. And if that does not work out, they will probably challenge us to a game of cribbage to choose the nominee." Another senior aide thinks Clinton is willing to destroy the party as long as she gets the nomination. Clinton's campaign called these comments "unhelpful." Communications director Harold Wolfson says he doesn't think either side would destroy the party, that the primary process isn't over yet and we should "let democracy run its course."
