If only we had a pro-palestinian jewish black girl to vote for. It would end all of our collective guilt.

There's no crying in politics, Hillary.

Which is why you mention it fairly often, Hillary. Grr.

The only two things she has to sell the voters is her sex and her husband's name. Other than that she's a hollow log.

Eat More Possum: The only two things she has to sell the voters is her sex and her husband's name.

True enough, and the amazing thing is the number of people around willing to buy what she has to sell.

And speaking of which, has anybody here ever personally met a man who supports Hillary? I don't think I ever have. I'll confess I haven't met many people at all who support her, but of those I have it seems it's only been women and the only excuse I hear them give for voting for her is "it would be nice for a woman to be president for a change." I don't disagree with that sentiment, but I do disagree that it would be nice for that woman to be president.

I've had a co-worker, and shockingly, my boyfriend, say they'd vote for her. Both male.

I can't fathom voting for her. Why would it be so "nice" to have a woman in the White House? Especially one with a lot of crackpot ideas and little substance....

A couple, both with partners who are, let's say...particularly strident about the Hillary campaign.

It's probably just me but she comes across like she "deserves" to break through the ultimate glass sealing like a beautiful butterfly escaping the bonds of all mankind. Like it's time immortal and she's destiny.

I think it would be nice to have a woman in the White House. Just not that woman. Honestly, politics aside, I can't see how anyone supports her. She just brazenly panders to whomever is listening at the moment, and they seem to lie so easily. I mean, at least with a guy like Obama, I may disagree with some of his policy ideas, but I can see why people like him.

I don't know if I'd say she has "crackpot" ideas, but for me it's just that, well, if I decide I want to vote for a Republican, I'll vote for one who is honest enough to run as a Republican rather than as a Democrat. I can't understand why Democrats would want to nominate a corporate Republicrat whore like that.

Yeah I would like to go out for a beer with Obama. But I would know going in that I would have to buy for the entire bar, and maybe the bar next door. And not the cheap beer either.

In your profile, you have this chart showing your place on the political spectrum:

img317.imageshack.usView Full Size


If that accurately reflects your political views--and apparently it does or you wouldn't have put that in your profile--then it makes perfect sense for you to make that statement, because she is by far the most conservative candidate running as a Dem, and is in some ways more conservative than some of the Republicans in the race. Sounds to me like you have a much better sense of how the candidates' positions on the issues stack up against your own than most voters do.

FTA: "This is the most exciting election we've had in such a long time because you have an African American, an extraordinary man, a person of tremendous talents and abilities, running to become our president. You have a woman running to break the highest and hardest glass ceiling. I don't think either of us want to inject race or gender in this campaign."

*facepalm*

Beyond the immediate contradiction stated here, if she thinks the race/gender of 2 of the candidates is THE reason this is an "exciting" election, she's a moran.
 
2008-01-14 5:26:18 PM  
Pitting race against gender in the Democratic Party has the huge potential for FAIL.

I don't know if these people are really "surrogates" per se, doing the dirty work of the campaigns. But if they're not, they're tremendously stupid.
 
2008-01-14 5:27:01 PM  
Pasting my response from another thread:

"I don't think either of us want to inject race or gender into his campaign."
- Hillary Clinton

"I think that having a first woman president is a huge change"
- Hillary Clinton one week earlier, speaking next to a Hispanic and a black man who kept their mouths shut on race the entire debate

What a sickening biatch. Neither Richardson nor Obama have played the race card, but Hillary pulls the gender card regularly.

Thank you. You're not to bad yourself
As for as her out conserving the Republicans, who would that be? Right now all the little want-a-bes are talking a good game. Cut taxes, limit government and (most) are talking about sealing the border. I know right now it's all talk, however the talk of universal healthcare has fallen to the wayside in the Republican debates. Not so in the Democratic Debates, they are just trying to tell you all the stuff they (cause it does not come from tax payers, no really) are going to give you. Baby bonds does not sound too conservative to me. And yes she is the most conservative of that bunch.

Come off it, Hillary. Everyone one knows that "the highest and hardest glass ceiling" you are talking about is the mirrored ceiling Bill put in your bedroom.

Nabb1: She just brazenly panders to whomever is listening at the moment, and they seem to lie so easily.

You act like that is a negative. I see it as a sign that she is much more nuanced than the other candidates. I mean, has Obama said anything beyond "Iraq was a bad war"? Hillary has made it quite clear that she voted for the authorization for Bush to be able to invade Iraq, but didn't (and still doesn't) actually support Bush invading Iraq.

At the same time, I'll support any candidate who clearly has shown that they will listen to the American people, as opposed to a candidate with 'principle' who will just do whatever the hell they want to. The Supreme Court selected a 'principled' President for us and we've got a "I don't care what anyone else thinks, I'm going to stick with my Texas, neocon friends" chimp in the White House. Hillary at least makes an effort to get people to like her, trying to pull in their support.

Besides, how can anyone complain about Hillary being an panderer when you both McCain and Romney on the Repuglikkkan ticket? They pander like nobody else. I'd even say Huckabee but I'm afraid he may actually believe he's got God on his speed dial.

Better not do that, or else we'll hear about the fact that Obama's camp is criticizing her unfairly.

WHY HILLARY CLINTON SHOULD BE ELECTED:

1. "America is ready for a female President!"
2. "Is America really ready for a black President?"

Hillary is the far better choice between the democrat candidates.
She has lots of experience, and a spine.
B. Hussein Obama has no experience and will always bend to the ultra liberal nutso faction of his party.
Hillary is the best that the dems can even dream of doing.
If you run an ultra liberal colored guy, you automatically lose the entire south, thats 50% of the vote gone right there, whereas Hillary will automatically get the majority of the female vote, thats a 50% bonus, not a 50% strike against you.
Hillary is the best hope any of you have, and B. Hussein Obama is political suicide for the dems.

"So there was the former president chastising the press for the way it was covering the Obama campaign and saying of Mr. Obama's effort, `The whole thing is the biggest fairy tale I've ever seen.' And there was Mrs. Clinton telling the country we don't need `false hopes,' and taking cheap shots at, of all people, the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We've already seen Clinton surrogates trying to implant the false idea that Mr. Obama might be a Muslim, and perhaps a drug dealer to boot."

What is this all about?

SEN. CLINTON: Well, beats me, because there's not one shred of truth in what you've just read. And I regret that, because obviously a lot of people have been, you know, given information or an impression that is absolutely false.


What?! Are you saying that your husband did NOT say that Obama's campaign is a "big fairy tale?"

Are you saying that you DIDN'T take a cheap shot at MLK? While the labeling of what you said as a "cheap shot" is debatable, I think most people would find it not very flattering of MLK's movement at all.

Are you saying that your staffers did NOT forward emails that said Obama was a Muslim ?

You are full of shiat, Hillary.

It saddens me that your trolling is so gawdawful that you have to resort to racial comments. You should work on that instead of just spamming every thread with some dumbass pic. Unless you're the most recent A_D reincarnation, in which case....well, we hardly have any reason to expect better.
