Will this get the same MSM coverage as the fake FEMA press conference? Think back.
Remember the stagey photo-op, of Pensive Bill creating a tiny little "aawwww" moment with his iddy biddy cairn of remembrance right there on Omaha Beach in 1994, on the 50th anniversary of D-Day? The MSM photo editors ate it up -- British warship conveniently smack dab in the center of the background (where Slick's staffers wanted it), and all.
Remember the staged "walk across the lawn" with all the military service chiefs, with Slick leading the way, Our Manly-Man Leader of Men, Commander in Chief, and Maximum Leader of the Free World?
Remember the Long, Long, Long Walk at the 2004 Democratic convention?
Ever hear a murmur from the MSM during any of those All About Bill personality-cult moments? Or just the vast sucking sound from all those straws and worshipful lips?

so the medical staff was instructed to bring in their healthy children dressed in pajamas. And they did? Doesn't sound too believable.
This story seems to go back to an article in the American Spectator. One would think that it would have made a bigger splash if true.

The only way she gets past the “Gotcha Question” is to make sure she knows the pre-question and correct answer. Be watching in the future Q & A’s, if she hems and haws, it was not planted, otherwise, if she has quick and firm answer, it was planted.
Cat’s out of the bag now.

However, Senator Clinton did not know which questioners she was calling on during the event. This is not standard policy and will not be repeated again. Read another way, what the flack is saying is that in future, Shelob will know which questioners she's calling on.
Depends on what the antecedent of "this" is.

Sounds like they're using the same old playbook from 15 years ago while today's teams know all of the plays.
They're going to have to come up with an entirely new and innovative way to be disgusting, cheating slime.

Yeah...and if you’re a Republican or a member of this administration you get your a$$ handed to you on a platter.
Do you see that happening to Hillary? ... well, in all fairness, I guess they don’t make platters that big.
To: Red_Devil 232
I am surprised she just does not bus her own audience around with her. Every question/answer preplanned ... that would be so much easier on her and the press corps. The press could just attend the first speech ... and use the film footage and print reporting over and over....that is a good point...of course, the 'Toons', would "explain" , "We're just trying to "get her message out" and cut through the clutter and avoid any misunderstanding (multiple flip-flops)"

I wonder when there will be a ponytail woman who will ask Hillary if she will meet our needs as our mother.
So, America, do you want Hillary as your mother? Your wife? Your auntie? Do you want her as the mother of your children?

The Clinton motto:
"We are so sorry, that we got caught."
It is a very rare, newsworthy day that orchestrated softball questions from the Hillary campaign are not delivered on a silver platter back to Hillary by the pathetic manistream media. She has been running an almost totally pre-progammed fake media campaign since she waddled on to the national scene in 1992.
To: NCDragon
Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clintons campaign admitted Friday that it planted a global warming question in Newton, Iowa, Tuesday during a town hall meeting to discuss clean energy. The implosion continues...
To: no dems
WHAT!!! THE NEW YORK SENATOR'S IMAGE AS A TRUSTWORTHY POLITICIAN????? When did she ever have that image? How anyone can think of Clinton as trustworthy is beyond me. That she and Spitzer were willing to see NYS flooded with illegal aliens, who often drive drunk, killing many innocent victims while committing other heinous crimes just so the queen carpetbagger could win NY over Giuliani should anger anyone with common sense. I know she'll still get a lot of votes but hopefully not nearly enough now to even come close to winning anything.
