Mrs. Clinton Offers to Raise Money for Lamont Campaign
New York Times ^ | August 26, 2006 | JENNIFER MEDINA

Posted on 08/27/2006 8:31:39 AM PDT by george76

In a private meeting at her Chappaqua, N.Y., home on Friday, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton offered to help Ned Lamont in his battle to unseat Senator Joseph I. Lieberman by sponsoring a fund-raiser, campaigning by his side and lending him one of her top political strategists.

That strategist, Howard Wolfson, said Mrs. Clinton wanted to throw her considerable political weight behind Mr. Lamont because the national Republican Party “is clearly invested in Ned Lamont’s defeat.”

“I think they are going to do what they can to see him defeated,” Mr. Wolfson said, adding that he was particularly concerned with “Bush-Cheney talking points.”

“They are going to attack him in the way Republicans do,” he said, “and he obviously needs to be and is going to be prepared.”

Mr. Lieberman, who lost to Mr. Lamont in the Aug. 8 Democratic primary, is running on his own Connecticut for Lieberman line, while still calling himself a Democrat, angering many other Democrats...

Across the country, the Republican Party has tried to use Mr. Lamont’s primary victory as evidence that an antiwar fringe has captured the Democratic Party.

Anyone know if there were any pics of Hillie with Lament?

Or didn't she have the guts to do a photo-op with that wackdoodle?

LOL. Thanks, I'd missed that one :)

Seriously, though, why the oh, so private meeting on Hillie's home turf? What other pols has Hillie invited there? Not many that I can think of. So how does Lament rate? Mark my words, there was more to that meeting than met the eye. Even though, since it was done behimd closed doors, that wouldn't be hard :)

There is music with that pic.

Hillary is trying to please both the moonbats by "offering" money, her "advisor," and private meetings...

and second, preparing for 2008 by avoiding public meetings and pictures with this moveon DUmmie.

IMO.

Mrs. Clinton Offers to Raise Money for Lamont Campaign...

Hillary always reminds me of a joke, but this one reminds me of the one where the wife goes out to raise some money and when she returns she has $500.10.

The husband asks, "Who was the cheap SOB who gave you the 10 cents?"

"Everybody," she replied.

Ever since her commodity trading where she made $100,000 ( in bribes ) but could not explain how she did it nor how options or futures trading works...

Hillary : 'If you are that good, why did you stop ?'

We know what she is. The only thing to change are the prices $$

She may offer money, but somehow the money never actually gets delivered.

Rudi: "Enjoy the trip to Yankee Stadium, Hillary."

"Hillary: "What's a Yankee? What's a Stadium? I'm a Brooklyn Dodgers fan!"

After the primary debacle, Sen Clinton urged Lieberman to “search his conscience and decide what is best for Connecticut and for the Democratic Party’’ before pushing ahead with an independent candidacy.

Translation of Hillary's comments: "What the.....? The loser filed to run as an Independent? Is he nutsy-cuckoo? We gotta get that creep out of the Senate race now. Everytime his whining face is on TV, he hurts my presidential chances. Harry better strip him of his committees.......or else. Quick, call Bill, tell him to get those FBI files on Lieberman out of the lockbox pronto."
