Clinton's secret weapon in Iowa Organizer's success proven in Wisconsin
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ^ | Dec. 24, 2007 | CRAIG GILBERT

A legend in the world of political organizing, 49-year-old Teresa Vilmain has a simple job Jan. 3: Get Hillary Clinton through Iowa intact.

"If you're in a mess somewhere, and you need a good organization put together anywhere in this country, Teresa Vilmain is one of the first people you turn to," said Joe Trippi, strategist for Clinton rival John Edwards. "If it happens to be Iowa, you really want Teresa Vilmain."

As head of Clinton's Iowa campaign, Vilmain shuns publicity. But she's renowned among Democratic party professionals, a networking whirlwind with a peerless Rolodex and ubiquitous Forrest Gump-like campaign history.

I suppose even donkeycrats are not retarded enough to voluntarily nominate the beast as their candidate for POTUS but I expect after the character assassination job they will do on Hussein she will be the only one left standing.

And they say the GOP has problems.

In Wisconsin, Vilmain ... ran the state for former President Clinton's 1996 campaign and Al Gore's 2000 campaign, and she lent a late hand in 2004 for John Kerry. All three were Democratic victories

Does this mean Iowa should be watching for slashed tires for opponents' "get out the vote" vans, and free smokes and multiple votes by the homeless like we've seen from Dems in Milwaukee in recent national elections?

WISCONSIN?? So has the MSM grilled her on her relationship to the tire-slashers whose idea of a political campaign was to try to destroy the other side’s vehicle fleet??

Whatever may be said about this woman, she is working on behalf of the BEAST of the Apocalypse.....666

I wonder how much Hillary is paying her? Half a mil?

I saw a picture of her recently. It looked like she hadn't bathed in weeks.

In regards to Hillary, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig.

They say the Republican candidates lack substance but the top three Democrats are:

  1. A wife riding the coattails of her ex-president husband.
  2. An empty suit with exactly one year in the private sector before entering academia and politics as a profession.
  3. A silk pony who made his fortune filing bogus lawsuits and shaking down hospitals.

I have compiled links, collected quotes and quips, and written about this ghastly parody of a candidate until I was blue in the face.

The Lady Macbeth of Little Rock has no friends- merely acolytes, hoping to bask in her reflected Glory...

For far more than you ever cared to know, about the wife of the second President to be impeached, click the picture and scroll backwards:

What’s her name, Vermain? .Wisconsin is no contender. It’s like saying she delivered the Democrat vote in Chicago.
Or snow melts in the sun. Sorry, Milwaukee Senility
she’s no king maker.

More pap from the MSM.
