Another Obama Backer Resigns After Negative Comments
March 11th, 2008
Another sign of the anger in Obamaland at the Clinton campaign: an email from a member of Obama’s LGBT leadership council, Maxim Thorne, to a couple of listservs:
“We cannot tolerate her lies and stolen election,” Thorne wrote of Clinton, revisiting familiar themes:
At 3am, Hillary said she and Bill were in bed and she knows of all the calls a President gets at different times of the day and night. Really? So much involvement - so much togetherness. Where was she when Monica was having sex with Bill? 35 years of experience? When he was intimidating Katherine Wiley and Paula Jones? Where was the judgment on the cattle futures and white water. Do we forget Mark and Denise Rich? This was an impeached President who lost his license to practice law. He committed perjury. They settled with Paula Jones for the full amount of her lawsuit. I haven’t forgotten and none of us should.
“These comments have no place in this campaign,” said Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor.
Vietor later reported Thorne had offered up a resignation.
