Hillary Clinton seeks to warm up her image
Yahoo News ^ | Dec 17,2007 | Steve Holland

.S. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, looking to turn the page on a rough stretch in her campaign, launched an effort to warm up her image on Monday and break free from her rivals in Iowa. Clinton, wife of former President Bill Clinton and a New York senator, has for years been fighting an image of being cold and politically calculating, an impression her loyalists call unfair.

With little more than two weeks until January 3, when Iowa starts the state-by-state battles to pick the Democratic and Republican candidates who will face off in the November 2008 election, Clinton tried to show a softer side on a fresh tour of Iowa and in videos on the Web site TheHillaryIKnow.com.

After Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney got teary-eyed while talking about when his Mormon church opened its doors to black Americans, an MSNBC interviewer asked Clinton if she ever teared up.

Clinton laughed off the question.

“Well, you know, when I had to get up at 4 o’clock in the morning in Des Moines I teared up,” she said.

You know how Bill Cinton could tell it was cold at the White House, when he was President? Every room at the White House felt like Hillary was in it.

I wish it would spontaneously combust.

If you warm up an iceberg it is never the same afterwards. She should consult Al Gore about this!

bigbob: “thermonuclear devices couldn’t warm that image!”

Good one!

So she needs a public relations campaign to prove her likability? That by itself should be setting off alarms in the electorate.

That’s funny, I didn’t know she had it in her.

Ya know, when I send out for pizza, sometimes there’s some left over and I’ll reheat it for lunch the next day. But I’ve never considered ordering reheated pizza in the first place, and come to think of it, I’ve never seen it on the menu anywhere I’ve ever been.

Hey, Hillary! It would be impossible to fake being this cold.

Face it, old gal, the "real hillary" actually is a tyrannically-evil, glacially-frigid witch. No matter how many lessons you have on body language, you just can't act away your stone-cold heart.

She said it herself. She has been vetted. There are no surprises. She is already as warm as she gets.

And that ain't too hot.

Attention Hillorie:

My FR tag line used to be:

Hildabeaste as Prez... unimaginable, devastating misery! She will redefine "How bad can it get?"
Now I have to admit that was pretty cold and cruel. (But you and I both know it is the truth.)

But now that you're with all the warm and fuzzies, I've come up with a new tag line just for you... see below.

Love and kisses, Baybee!!*



*I know Huma won't mind, just this once.

After seeing her slogging around Iowa, NH, and other campaign venues; her visage is overwhelmingly one of disgust at having to demean herself to speak to the "little people" of the U.S.

She puts on an air of "Friendly Hillary" and points, waves, smiles to certain folks in the assemblies but always reverts to an aura of disdain for questioners whether they be regular voters or members of the LSM asking questions not inflated with puff.

If you have to "work" on warming your image; you don't have anything with which to work.

Like making pottery out of dust bunnies.

Most telling piece of this article:

(Hillary) has for years been fighting an image of being cold and politically calculating, an impression her loyalists call unfair.

Only her loyalists refute this impression.
