(Talking Points Memo) Dumbass Tape of secret Clinton meeting reveals her disdain for the "activist" Democratic base, who she blaims for her numerous caucus losses. She also borrows a slanderous claim from Karl Rove to criticize them for good measure   (tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com) divider line 172

Are there any Dem Farkers that actually support Clinton left that are willing to justify this?

The biggest joke is that she thinks MoveOn is the source of Obama's huge mountain of cash.

It's sad to see her and McCain using the same attacks on Obama. She should run on the Republican ticket if shes going to write their attacks for them.

She seems kind of like Bush in that she, with the aid of a small coetrie of loyal sycophants, would like to be in total control of everything without having to bother with that whole pesky democracy/participation thing.

The difference between her statements about MoveOn.org before they chose Obama and after are very telling.

Yes, yes it is. Because MoveOn didn't even want us to go into Afghanistan. I mean, that's what we're dealing with.

is something that only Republican attack dogs say, and she's saying it.

She must think the internet is composed of the youtube, moveon.org and CNN and that's it.

What? Obama clearly ahs nothing against the Hil-Dog, my amiforus amigo. She will win PA, and go on to switch the superdelagetes to her side. I'm thinking Either Bloomberg or Liberman as a running mate for MICcain, so Hil-Dog will poick al Gore and for the victory.

Maybe. I am no Hillary fan but perhaps she's just playing rough and tumble.

The ultimate test will be her reaction when Obama get the nomination. If she rallies around the flag and campaigns for him, all will be forgiven. If she just walks away then her future in politics is toast.

What do you mean by "issue"? Is it something that the average voter should or will care about? Maybe not.

But she is insulting liberal activists. She is trashing a large segment of her own party. Hell, not just any old segment, but arguably THE most important segment. Liberal activists are the ones going out there and organizing, doing voter drives, raising cash and so on.

What the fark is she thinking?

She might as well just diss black voters or northeasteners.

The Afghanistan thing is false, but the rest of it's a non-story, because she's trashed her own party through this whole campaign. Hopefully Obama will continue to take the high road and not address this.

SilentStrider: Sorry, I don't like Hillary, but I'm not sure this is any more of an issue than "bittergate"

I agree that the mainstream media won't care too much (although Olbermann and Maddow already called it boldly stupid), but there are already 1000 posts at DailyKos about this, and over 2300 of HuffPost... and on a Friday night. Most of those already were for Obama, I'll bet, but boy are they pissed.

Pissed off, that is. Not pissed like Farkers on a Friday.

Then again, the sheer irony of Hillary dissing a group created to protect her husband... that's rich, and people will comment on it.

Oh, it isn't. But, the thing is, the media played bittergate up like crazy. If they don't play this up, when it's almost exactly the same thing, then everyone should be able to see the bias. I mean. . . if they ever hear about this.

There's also that Clinton isn't even right about the positions of her supposed omnipresent opponents and Obama's "bitter" comments get proven at the next debate in the form of a women with a flag pin fetish.

Crazy. Maybe this "intimidation" thing does happen in some places, but up here in our corner of WA there was no animosity to be seen between Obama and Clinton supporters. There were more of us (O), and the camps disagreed on some finer points, sure. There was some back and forth kidding, but it was all amiable.

Hillary is seeming paranoid, these days. Not kidding. I guess maybe I would be too, if I'd been under seige by a political smear machine, but I think in that case I might be too deranged to be allowed to dispense political payback from our highest office.

Considering that Hillary has been the one to denigrate her opposition in an attempt to make herself look better, "intimidation" is a huge stretch...

And that is, what? The thin slice of people racist enough to not vote for Barrack Obama because he's black, but too liberal to vote for McCain? What's Hillary's base if NOT the activist? Frankly, she's been outclasses in all her best areas by Obama (he's quite liberal, has similar proposals, only they seem somewhat better, and he has all the Hillary liberalism without the Hillary baggage and shillism), and the only thing she has left to turn to, the Reagan democrats, if they paid any attention to her record, would see that she is absolutely NOT the DINO she portrays herself as nowadays. Obama might have trouble against a more moderate democrat (Or a more radical one) but against Hillary she basically only has a base left that she has spent years ignoring and McCain is all ready in a better position to tap.

The ironic thing is, this was probably found in response to the unearthing of Obama's "bitter" comments. Hillary's team released a tape of him saying some stupid things behind closed doors, so Obama's team is going to get her right back. And I think this has the potential to be more damaging, as it just adds to her list of lies right before the primary.

So they'll overturn the voters and destroy the party to prevent the better spoken candidate who people, by a large majority, see as having more integrity and honesty and likability, in order to put up someone the Right's been smearing for over a decade, has been caught openly baldfaced lying in order to make herself look better, and has flip flopped on many issues? Why would the superdels risk GRIEVOUS harm to the future of the party in order to put up the weaker candidate?
