CNBC "Hardball" host and Democratic Party insider Chris Matthews said Saturday that New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton can't wait to become president of ther United States.

"She's dyin' for it," Matthews told NBC's Tim Russert, on Russert's own weekend CNBC interview show.

RUSSERT: What about your fellow Goldwater groupie Hillary Clinton?

MATTHEWS: Ah, you know, you're a New Yorker, a New York stater - um - Hillary is dyin' for it. But she's also miserable right now because of all this patriotic stuff going on - she can't stand it.

Matthews recalled an incident where Mrs. Clinton seemed reluctant to pledge allegiance to the American flag.

"I remember Hillary - I'll tell you this about Hillary," Matthews told Russert. "She once said, 'I pledge allegiance to the America that can be.'

"What, are we on probabtion?,' Matthews exclaimed.

"When is she gonna lighten up about this sort of thing," the CNBC host added. "This is a great place instead of her constant complaining."

and i thought she had no chance of winning new york...you forget how many liberals are out there and if they all go to the polls she wins...

[CathyRyan]

Hillary has started Chelsea warning up in the Bull Pin.

[Cuttnhorse]

Dittos...all the comments being made here about her having "NO CHANCE" are the same ones that were posted when she ran for Senate...everyone just overestimated the intellegence of New Yorkers.
Remember the predictions about how the pitbull NY press would tear her apart?? Didn't happen!
I'm telling you, if she runs and the Republicans have a weak candidate she'll win. I can't explain it and if it happens it will make me an alcoholic.

[Rocko]

Run, Hillary, run.

Run, and trip.

[Irma]

LOL! Would you believe I've actually done that? (on a MUCH smaller scale of course!)

[aculeus]

"She once said, 'I pledge allegiance to the America that can be.'

Arrogance personified.

[lavaroise]

I can see it, women vote for a woman spin, polarisation of politics, virtual Nazism. Hopefuly the libertarians will understand what it means to pick between Hillary or a so called GOP RINO. This bodes ill for the nation.

On a side note the technology exists and will be used soon to show pictures and or film of you or me or anyone doing things they never did.So that saying who you gonna believe me or your lieing eyes might have some new meaning soon.I believe it is this technology that will bring down anything moral and right about America.You can bet the scumbag knows a few things we dont and will use them to get to be P.

Have felt for decades that the UFO critters or gov or some such would purport to have a time machine video to purportedly show aspects of the Crucifixion/Resurrection to disprove Christ's divinity.

We know The Bible speaks of an incredible delusion so incredible as to fool even "the elect" if that were possible. We really need to be sheep who know HIS VOICE.

THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENT.

What made Bill Clinton tolerable was that he was also an opportunist who was willing to wait. But she is a true-believer whose time is running out, a Rosa Luxembourg

I think she's just more of and opportunist than Bill Clinton. If she really cared about equality, she wouldn't have kept the $8 million bribe to herself. I never hear of her sharing her wealth with anyone, the homeless aren't allowed to share that big mansion that was donated to her. I don't think she cares one iota about poor or the mistreated. It's all about her.

***roll clip of Hillary frowning and not clapping***

Was somehow reminded of my wife--had buttocks such that if she jumped up and down, they made a clapping sound against her legs (she was thin). Her nursing roommates would often call their friends in to watch. Somehow I think of Shrillery though without the fun.

[FITZ]

I regard her as the most dangerous political presence I have seen in my lifetime--of more than 60 years.

She's dangerous because she has no morals at all and will do anything at all to get power.

[quesera]

Barring a horrible mistake of some kind, anybody who thinks Hillary can't make it into the White House is kidding themselves. She hasn't missed a step so far. The only thing that has save Bush's behind is this antiterrorist war.

Man, I tell you that is not something you want to read while eating, thanks a lot. Now I won't be able to put anything in my stomach all day.

If there is anything that scares me more than anything else is the fact that you may be right about this. And we all know how dirty she can play when she really wants something. Don't forget the fact that behind her comes slick willy, I would not be surprised if he became secretary-general of the U.N. soon after.

[proudofthesouth]

I just wonder is she my try to sneak in by getting on the ticket as vice president and then she will have her running mate the president knocked off. (This is off course GOD FORBID) they actually make it that far.

[backhoe]

Thanks- I saved the link!

'I pledge allegiance to the America that can be.'

Not if I can do anything to keep America from becoming the way you want it to be, you mutt!

SUFFER, Weasel Woman!!!

"I hate her guts, but she has media support, women's support, academic support, and has the best advisors in existence."

I think you are right. Lots of people on FR are scoffing and saying, "The Hildebeast doesn't stand a chance," and I hope they're right. But I live in the People's Republic of Kalifornia, and I gotta tell ya, there are plenty of people around here who WORSHIP her. And she is bound and determined to get what she wants. She'll use any underhanded methods that she can to achieve her goals. I wouldn't count her out!!!

[RobbyS]

Do you think that if Bill Clinton had been sitting in the Senate that he would not have been among those hugging Bush after the speech and he, for the moment, would have not been sincere? HER zealotry, her disapproval showed from every pore. She is the definitive NOW type, who can mask her feelings only in the right stage setting.

[Alas Babylon!]
