Baloney! All these 'rat special talent collectivists throwing their hats in the ring will give The Chameleon her orchestrated send-off with feigning admiration on cue at the 'rat convention.
If the NYTimes , and the WashPost, and the LATimes and all the network news were put out of action by an EMP or some such unlikely event I suppose she may have a hard time...
It isn't just her, it's her team - many of these are relatively unideological themselves but they are highly adept at the acquisition of power, as professionals should be. A fair number of them succeeded in foisting BJ Clinton on the country for eight interminable years. They weren't defeated by Bush, they simply stepped aside for the Gore and Kerry teams who were. They are very, very good at what they do.
There is, in addition, a fatigue in the public that is the result of six years of relentless propaganda in the media, that would tend toward a Democrat, any Democrat, just to stop the pain.
There is also a larger demographic than many think who state that they want a "woman" in the position and that talk to the contrary is simply misogyny. We have seen this phenomenon during the Pelosi coronation. They don't mean a Condi Rice, they mean a progressive who uses her sex as a means of political identification and her power against the "other side" meaning conservatives, and especially against conservative women. These tend to be feelings voters and there are a lot of them. I had dinner with one last night. She dislikes most of Her Highness's political objectives but will absolutely vote for her because "it's time we gave a woman a chance." Any woman? Oh, my no.
Do not underestimate Hillary Rodham Clinton. She has the potential to be one of the most damaging Presidents since Lyndon Johnson and for the very same reason.
Guess I will move up my Mass exodus, move to New Hampshire, hold my nose while I register as a Dimocrap, and vote against the _itch!
"Hillary Rodham Clinton is the most battle-tested"
How so? She ran for the Senate in a State where any liberal Democrat is welcomed. Does the experience with flying ashtrays count as battle-tested?
Please, no comparisons to Harpo! Harpo was a sweetie who wouldn't hurt a soul.
Good analysis.
BS. The coronation is underway. None of the other Dem midgets have any hope of beating her. It's a lock.
Since she's never, as far as I know, renounced her vote, what could be the move around that segment of the party?
It may be possible to split the Dems by appealing to the screamers along the lines of ideology. This was a regrettably effective ploy in the last election when it was aimed at the Republicans. I decline to shake my finger at "conservatives" who stayed home to "teach the GOP a lesson" here beyond the observation that its intended effect, the accession of the Democratic party to majority power, was successful. And that turn about is certainly fair play. It may even take the form of a formal third-party drive - this has proven an effective ploy for the Democrats in the form of Ross Perot and for the Republicans in the form of Ralph Nader, so it isn't unprecedented.
I'm stocking up on popcorn.
Well, I hope against hope you are right. Ms. Bitch has done nothing to win this space on FR...but by being one of Mr. Clinton's first assortment of women, she takes control, does nothing in Congress, has passed or written no legislation, gives speeches someone else writes, and most importantly, talks only to the pillow soft no hard question MSM like Larry King and will only answer questions she KNOWS are coming. She is a nothing, running on the shoestrings of her erstwhile political hack husband. She can win and Obama will be her running mate and if this happens.. America loses....bigtime! Pray that our voters become more informed!!
Rabid Witch
This whole report sounds painfully contrived.
She's manufacturing her fear of not walking into the job with nary a speck of dust on her black pantsuit.
We are about to witness the slickest political machine ever known to man.
