Hillary Clinton gets it

NEW YORK If the Democratic Party wants to figure out how to win national elections again, it has an unexpected guide: Hillary Rodham Clinton.

.

. [snip]The first lesson Clinton is demonstrating is the need to talk much more openly about God and prayer. That resonates in a country where a Pew poll found that 60 percent of Americans pray at least once a day.

. [snip]"I've always been a praying person," Clinton declared recently.

. [snip]Democrats are usually more comfortable talking about sex than God. But that doesn't work in a country where 70 percent say that "presidents should have strong religious beliefs."

. [snip]The Democratic Party commits seppuku in the heartland by coming across as indifferent to people's doubts about abortions or even as pro-abortion. ...

. . . [snip]Clinton is also hard to dismiss as a screechy obstructionist .

[snip]The makeover is working with New York state voters. Clinton has an approval rating in the state of 69 percent, according to a New York Times poll.

. [snip]In small towns like Yamhill, any candidate from New York carries a lot of baggage, and Clinton more than most. Moreover, television magnifies her emotional reserve and turns her into a frost queen. Clinton's negative ratings nationally were around 40 percent at last count, and Hillary-hating thrives.

Alinsky taught her well.

Go for the middle. Get the power. Doesn't matter how.

The only thing that baffles me is why anyone believes anything she says. She is a values-neutral, morally relative chimera who is concerned with only 2 things -- Hillary Clinton and power.

The title of this article is dead wrong. It reads, "Hillary Clinton Gets It." The correct title is, "Hillary Clinton Gets the Need to Fake It." She reads enough polls to know what she must pretend to be, to have a chance to be elected.

Some additional thoughts on how Hillary! fits into this tissue of deception are in my column this week. Click below.

Sorry, I did check first - must have not have seen it......but then exposing Mx. Clinton more than she exposes herself is right much fun......

At the NYTimes _{"All the Fawning Lies About Hillary That Will Fit"TM} every article is part of the Hillary makeover.

I've always been a praying person," Clinton declared recently... [snip]

The entire quote is:

"I've always been a praying person," Clinton declared recently... "I've long prayed that Bill's penis would drop off..."[snip]

[LegendHasIt]

"I've always been a praying person," Clinton declared recently.

Uh, minor typo in that statement:

That is "PREYING" not praying.

[Tom Bombadil]

I've always been a praying person," Clinton declared recently

She's always been a lot of things.

Ask Juanita Broderick what she is.

Hillary Clinton gets it

She (it) gets it alright ..........

[shield]

BOY OH BOY I HOPE THIS HAPPENS... ;o)

[metesky]

Good 'un.

[Tuba Guy]

Please remember that Hillareah's college roommate at Wellesley was "Eldie" (short for Eleanor Dean) Acheson, a hard-core lezbanian activist. During the Clintoon years, "Eldie" had a high-ranking position in the Clintoon justice dept. where she (it) was in charge of selecting judicial appointments. Later, she (it) worked in the Kerry campaign as representative to the gay community ......

It's all in the public record and easily found at Google.

Hillary and the Democrat's problem rest in one word

CREDABILITY

Their actions speak far louder then their words and no amount of clever marketing gimmicks can hide the reality of their moral, and intellectual, bankruptcy.

ROFL x 2 (Showed it to the Mr.)

[Paulus Invictus]

Or mid-west, or Mountain West or Southwest. She's the last candidate I ever want to see get elected.

[Vision]

She'll carry the south if she gets hawkish on the borders

[familyop]

"'I've always been a praying person,' Clinton declared recently."

...to which goddess?

[Mark in the Old South]

I very much doubt she will carry Texas. AZ and NM are different and not the South (properly speaking) The rest of the South is not as concerned about the borders as Texas for obvious reasons. Not to be understood that I am saying they have no concern, but we see it as an invasion of sorts and consider it a National Sovereignty issue and Hillary will never convince the South she is a Hawk. Jimmy Carter got most of the South the first time but lost most of the South for reelection. Clintoon won a fair size of the South the first time (still not as big a JC) but lost almost all the second time. The South has learned a lesson from these elections. Where we differ from the rest of the nation in that we have very very very looooooooooong memories. We do not forgive very easily and we never forget. The demoncrats have lost the South for a generation and they will not get it back. The best Hillary can hope for is 3 states at best. FL WV KY MD maybe LA. The rest of the South will not be turned. The GOP needs to learn from the demoncrats defeat in the South. We are loyal but betrayal will earn our hatred for a lifetime.
