Clinton connects

Promises for a 24/7 downtown? We won't count the number of times we've heard politicians talk about that concept.

Still, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton may come the closest to delivering, and we're not talking about her package of six bills from a year ago that she said would help upstate New York's economy.

The former first lady caused quite a stir along Delaware Avenue last week when she decided to walk - not be driven - from the University at Buffalo's Jacobs Executive Development Center, the former Butler mansion, to the Mansion at Delaware and Edward Street.

"The whole time, people were pulling over, chasing her down to shake her hand and get autographs," one Democratic insider said. "It was the closest political thing to Bill Clinton I've seen from her."

OK, so it's not the most exciting thing to happen in a city. But people congregating on a downtown street on a Friday night with Secret Service agents in hot pursuit?

Forget the legislative bills, senator.

You just found your strategy.

Know-your-enemy alert. It's time to crank up the heat on the co-rapist.

[demkicker]

For shame... Where's the MEGA BARF ALERT?

[backhoe]

"Has that clinton "legacy" made you feel safer yet?"

Lest Americans ever forget why the clintons, and all their enablers need to be hectored, hounded, and harried into silence, until "clintonese is only spoken in Hell," look here:

Hodgepodge O' Hillary

The Holiday *Best* of Bill Clinton & his Friends!

Shouldnt there be a barf alert?

[NYpeanut]

Mea culpa. I thought it went without saying whenever the word clinton was used.

[jhofmann]

and in other news, Hillary's ass just got bigger.

SNARK.

[wheezer]

Everything is falling into place nicely for her `04 run.

Man, they so po' in Buffalo they had to sell their O!

[areafiftyone]

Makes you feel sick to be a New Yorker. What is with these people running to shake her hand? Who does she think she is walking? She never did that before. What a PHONEY!

"The whole time, people were pulling over, chasing her down to shake her hand and get autographs," one Democratic insider said. "It was the closest political thing to Bill Clinton I've seen from her."

Its really disheartening to see that there are people who still revere this dime-store hood after everything we now know about her and her husband's administration.

Between the sacrificing of 3000 Americans to political expediency and cowardice to creating an atmosphere where CEOs felt perfectly comfortable running their companies like the Mafia, Bill and Hillary Clinton should be running for their lives from outraged Americans. Instead, we've got kneepadders sprinting after Hillary the East German border guard like she's Bill Gates handing out thousand dollar bills. How depressing.

[jhofmann]

She's marking her territory like a bitch. She's telling the country that she owns New York and anyone who wants it should go through her rather than those parakeet males (thanks Ann) Pataki, Cuomo and Schumer. I don't think she will run in '04 unless Bush is caught up in a major scandal and his popularity drops incredibly. But she wants (has) to remain a power broker. If she is not seen as a power broker, her enemies who have dirt on her and her husband will start releasing it.

[areafiftyone]

The only thing that will make Bush's popularity drop will be the economy. If he doesn't do something fast or keep driving the point home that the Democreeps (who have control of the Senate) can't pass a budget he will lose in 2004. He has to go on TV and drive his point home. This is going to hurt him like it did his father. I hope for his sake that he drives the democreeps to the ground. They are starting to rally because they smell blood (economy, and big corporations). I don't want to see Bush go the same way his father did (in defeat)to some rotton Democreep like Al Gore or HILLARY!

[cardinal4]

No problem, Im using a company keyboard. Had it been mine, however..........

LOL!

[jhofmann]

Bush will not repeat the mistakes of the father. Not that he won't make his own mistakes. On the other hand, I find the timing of the "discovery" of all these long-festering corporate scandals and the not-suprising handwringing Greek Chorus of Dem' Media Ho's trying to connect the dots to Bush interesting ... on the other hand, I don't sense the "malaise" that some liberal commentators say is overtaking the country. I think this will be a grand patriotic Fourth of July, celebrated mostly locally, without the interventions and whitewashing of patriotism by ABC and NPR.

I still am reminded of all those people I saw lined up on the roads around Camp Lejeune several months ago cheering the Marines coming home from Afghanistan and nary a word of coverage in the mainstream media.

[areafiftyone]

Bush will not repeat the mistakes of the father.

I hope not. I want Bush to win in 2004. We need him now more than ever. BUSH/CHENEY 2004!

Yeah, Old Crusty is hard on the nose.

"The whole time, people were pulling over, chasing her down to shake her hand and get autographs," one Democratic insider said. "It was the closest political thing to Bill Clinton I've seen from her."

That's how I always think of Hillary; a political thing.

I'm surprised she didn't have them bow and kiss her ring.

[Carolinamom]

First, it was news flashes that she was listening. Now, it's BIG news that she's walking? Is this a build up to the news that she's running (for pres.)? Of course, she needs to walk.....might take a few pounds off her lower extremity. LOL

[esopman]

"...forget legislative bills...you've found your strategy."

1. This is a tacit admission by the 4th estate/5th column that Hillary Regina is running.

2. There has been debate among us Freepers as to the timing, not the intent: '04 or '08?

3. I am now, sigh, of the opinion that this incarnation of the Nietzschean Wille-zur-Macht is going to call in every chit for the 2004 race.

3.1. I simply cannot see all that crowd (Terry M. at the DNC, Carville, Ickes, et alii) waiting six years. They are getting older, too much can happen in the interim, etc. A key point: if Bush gets another four, many Klintonista mid-level bureaucrats will be moved out and even much of the majority-leftist press will grow closer to the Pubbies over time. This is a devastating pattern for her. Her political chess includes a "boldness gambit", since any war of attrition with an entrenched Republicanocracy is a loser...she cannot hold her bizarre coalition of greens/Sharptons/academic communists/frightened seniors/lock-step journalists and the like together for long.

3.2. She cannot wait for, but will have to create or instigate a 'galvanizing event' for the left. There is no question but that she has not just FBI files, but other political Semtex which cannot be allowed to deteriorate.

Please, somebody, tell me that the nightmare of Bubbette Rex is impossible.
