Talk about pathetic …
I don’t know how much sense there is getting into the nitty-gritty of which pol has gotten a flu shot and which hasn’t. But this is pretty feeble. If you look on Drudge as of around 12:31 AM there’s a big headline about the Kerry campaign hitting Cheney, Snow and Frist for getting flu shots, notwithstanding the shortage.
And then just below there’s a headline: “BUT CLINTON GOT ONE.”
Please.
Didn’t Clinton have a quadruple bypass like about six weeks ago? And, as long as we’re on the topic, isn’t Clinton, like … not on the ballot?
For myself, I don’t begrudge the Veep getting a shot. He’s over sixty and he has a serious heart condition. But the White House is ill-positioned to make that case since the whole point is that the Vice President is, by definition, not in good health.
