"I'm In" (Hillary announces for president)

Hillary Clinton.com ^ | Jan 20, 2007 | Hillary

[tlb]

I'm in. And I'm in to win.

Today I am announcing that I will form an exploratory committee to run for president.

And I want you to join me not just for the campaign but for a conversation about the future of our country -- about the bold but practical changes we need to overcome six years of Bush administration failures.

But the truth is a powerful thing. She's a nothing, and that will come through........eventually

Yes, the truth will come out eventually .. but we don't have a lot of time to play with

The MSM is NEVER going to make her look bad or inform the American people about her baggage. By the time they are through, you too will want to vote for her cause she's a saint and the only folks with too much baggage are the Republicans.

Well I don't agree that the GOP is stupid, but they certainly seem to have lost their spine, and that could be a factor.

We NEED a good, strong, protect America candidate, and I'm afraid that the Republican party is afraid to do that.

I'm just talking about how very, very UNattractive Hillary Clinton is. That has been hidden from the American people until now, but I don't think it can be completely covered up by anyone if she's out there every day, in debates, etc.

btw, the number of people who will vote for her simply because she's female aren't going to win it for her. There are most likely an equal amount of sexists who will vote against her for the very same reason, and they'll cancel each other out, IMO.

I knew it was coming but I can't help feeling sick in my stomach.

[ohioWfan]

I'm not underestimating her. Trust me, Mo.

But she's not bill either.

How much hard earned labor compensation will be confiscated in your efforts to prove your personal fallacy of six years if you are elected is my first question Ms. Beast.

[IncPen]

I've always said she's the only person on the political scene today who could incite a civil war. And having said that, I don't believe that she can win the election.

But I sure as hell think she could steal it-- they almost did in 2000.

One more observation: this looks to me like a last-ditch effort on her part; I think she's gambling that 2012 is so far away and the future so hidden that she dare not risk sitting this out. A now-or-never scenario in that light smacks of desperation.

I hope Hussein Obama is ready for it. It's going to be an entertaining couple of years, in the sort of way that watching a racoon get hit by a car is entertaining.

"She can get away with murder and the American people will never find out.

Come to think of it........"


Yes and that is the point everyone should be raising for the next two years.....the Clintons are muderers!

Do we honestly want the Clinton Gestapo working again in America???

I know the MSM has power to convince the mindless (I certainly hope you weren't really implying that I would be convinced), but the number one factor in electing a President in this television age is 'likeability.'

Just think about that, and then think about Hillary, and you should be encouraged.

[hinckley buzzard]

I really thought those 2 were not running against each other .. but they were working together

No, she was using Obama as a stalking horse, but then he started to gain some traction and threaten to bleed off support, so she had to do something different to rein him in. She has been content to lurk in that safe so-called fourth place position but the race has accelerated faster than she expected, so she has had to take corrective action.

He!!, the MSM had eight White House years to do so and STILL portrays her as a Saint!

[Gunny P]

but like Mencken said..or some such;

"No one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public..

Hillary is a sure looser...going...coming...or sitting down.
And Barack A Bamma might be worse.
Does anyone REALY want to listen to Schrillery's over elavuated, under qualed self for at least 4-years?

She's the dark side of EEO personafied.

And I'm a "minority"

[deport]

DO NOT under estimate this women

---

I agree that she'll have the backing of the Democrats and a lot of swing voters assuming she makes the race as the nominee.... However she'll get a lot of negative exposure during the primaries assuming any of the other democrats chose to be serious contenders..... If she's allowed to speak in general terms then it's to her advantage but if anyone can force her to speak in specifics then she'll not do as well.

"I'm in"

She's been in one too many poker games. I'd make the analogies, but I don't want to expend the effort.

Does anyone know how many users are presently registered on FreeRepublic? I'd hazard a guess we see a spike in membership as one of the responses to this 'news'.
