Speaking the Unspeakable

Comparing VandeHarris's new piece, "What Obama Wishes He Could Say," with its predecessor, "What Clinton Wishes She Could Say," I'm struck by the fact that she's actually said a helluva lot of what she couldn't say. The authors suggest an equivalence, moral or otherwise, that just isn't there (oddly, under the guise of being 'fair' to Obama).
