Meet the New Frontrunner?
Thursday, February 21st, 2008During the course of the hour and 45-minute CNN debate between Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, the RNC communications department was busy sending out emails to reporters on the issues discussed and the candidates’ statements, as they usually do.
Danny Diaz, one of the staffers at the RNC, sent out a total of 13 emails during the debate tonight - 12 of which focused on Mr. Obama. Diaz questioned Obama’s stance on Cuba, immigration, economic policies, foreign policy, and troop funding. He also sent out a couple of emails with the subject: “Another Lifted Line by Obama?”
When asked if this means the RNC has determined Obama the frontrunner, Diaz responded, “What we do is a reflection of political reality.”
