Thank you, TE.

I have observed this woman since the days of Gennifer Flowers. I know Her personality type all too well.

And I dread the idea of having Her claws near the nuclear codes.

Hillary’s like Obama. Scrape the bottom of the barrel or clean off the soles of your shoes.

The Republicrats, with the exception of Sarah Palin, are in the same boat.

Rescue America, third party, and get moving quickly!

Same here. Both Hussein and Hillary are sociopaths. Hussein is a pathological narcissist type ie. “I love myself so much there’s nothing left to care about anyone else.” Hillary is more in the mold of a psychopath like Stalin or Himmler. She is not so concerned about personal affronts like the Boy WONder is but get in the way of her power and ambition and the long knives come out.

"I don't agree with everything she says but she's my favorite liberal".....hah, and barf. I've been reading this favorite disclaimer on FR for fifteen years. Disgusting.

Paglia is just as dirty as Obama, Hitlery and the Democrats.

She's just like Obama who distances himself from his destructive policies by going on the national stump trail to actually speechify AGAINST his own destructive policies.

Paglia is of the same ilk.

She is so high-and-mighty and virginal when it comes to her personal dislike of Hillary....but still, she refers to the Dem's as HER Party, even though HER party is evil and actively participating WITH OBAMA (and Hillary) in the destruction of our country.

This is more than hypocracy on Paglia's part.

It's the snobbism, the elitism, the snooty-ism, the know-it-all academia-ism, the misguided emotionalism, the misplaced idealism, the cultism of leftist hags like Paglia who, like a dog, deposits her steaming marxist business on her reading public, then when it suits her to obfuscate her hypocracy, like a dog she turns around and scratches to cover it up.

Yup....she’s a sloppy, lazy, disjointed thinker. She came along when PC was blazing in the early 90s & threw a few bones to conservatives. She’a a mile wide & an inch deep. I’ve talked to her several times for extended periods & came away shaking my head at her inability to get it.

It remains baffling to me how she can be against Hillary and not understand it’s Hillary’s principles and actions that define Paglia’s beloved demonrat party.

The low information voter only cares about the personal connection, and frankly, she can’t make that connection.

Bill Clinton was an odious human being and a very unpleasant politician, but he was good at the “feel your pain” thing and connected with the low information crowd.

Hillary won’t be able to do that. The only group who will like her a lot, I believe, are older female academics and maybe a few confused Muslims or other non-Hispanic immigrants. I don’t even think she’s likely to get the black vote, which is crucial to the Dems because while it is very small numerically, it exercises a lot of power because of the gerrymandering of districts to accommodate it.

Could be, but I don’t think they’d run an Hispanic (because blacks don’t like Hispanics, and blacks, because of their carefully gerrymandered districts, are a key constituency).

I’m still putting my money on Michelle Obama. The Dems have floated her name a couple of times, just as a flyer, and I think the response has been positive. After all, Obama had no experience and no knowledge of government except for his brief no-show in the Senate, and Hillary was nothing but Bill’s doormat until she carpet-bagged into the Senate and has done nothing effective in her entire career, so from this point of view, they’re no better than Michelle.

Michelle Obama would essentially keep Obama and his minions in power, assuming he doesn’t refuse to leave, which is another possibility.

I personally think the Hillary moment came and went quite some time ago.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, prior to 9-11, her best shot at becoming President was in 2004. When those towers came crashing down, so did her Presidential aspirations, and she knew it even then. She will go to her grave cursing the name of Osama Bin Laden...
