Edwards Advisor: Hillary Should Have Emphasized Her 'Likability and Warmth'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/27/2008 5:16:03 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

With advisors like this, no wonder John Edwards got blown out of the Dem primary . . .

Of all the qualities Hillary might have emphasized to her advantage, can you imagine basing her campaign on her "warmth" and "likability"? Chris Kofinis can. The former communications director of the John Edwards campaign appeared on Tucker Carlson's show this evening.

And michael jackson should emphasize his maturity and hetrosexuality.

And barbara strisand should emphasize her generosity and beauty.

And Paris Hilton should emphasize her brains and morality.

I was thinking the same thing. I watched the whole debate last night, and she was so annoying and phoney.

Exactly, Obama should tout his military service, as well as Mrs. William Clinton, wife of impeached ex president bill clinton, that was such a hot issues in the Kerry/Bush campaigne and now not a peep out of any one of their experiece, Mc Cain will mop the floor with either of them over this

Hillary is about as warm as Nurse Ratched.

This is what makes the lefties so entertaining and frightening. They dream up the world the way they see it or want to see it and have the ability to completely blot out reality and the real world.

Modern medicine will soon reach the conclusion that this is a psychological disorder embedded in genetics

"Hillary Should Have Emphasized Her 'Likability and Warmth'" Good but it cannot match classic one-liners like:

"Take my wife.. Please!" Henny Youngman

"I went to a massage parlor.. it was self-service," Rodney Dangerfield

"So Randi Rhodes walks into a bar and says, "Ouch!" unknown (no wonder)

what warmth?, what likeability.

She sure wouldn’t be losing to Hussein Obama if she were “warm”? what a joke.
