    I am so pissed at what she is doing. I can't believe I ever considered her over Obama.

    Those days are loooooong gone

    This is why Hillary is the republican version of bush.

    She simply is throwing her finger at the Democratic Party and We The People.

    Do we want another bush?

    No to McCain! No to Hillary!

    The Clintons’ Legacy (Is it That Time Already?)

    By the time Hillary ran for president, when liberal blogs like the Daily Kos helped set the agenda, the tide had shifted dramatically in the party­ — liberals were no longer defensive. In that atmosphere, Hillary’s prowar vote on Iraq was deadly unless it was followed by some degree of contrition. But she came from an era when you didn’t admit to a mistake lest the Republicans pummel you with it, and so she was stuck with her war vote and the prevaricating that followed. It burdened her throughout the campaign, and it cut to the quick her argument for her experience. Obama could justifiably question whether experience trumped judgment.

    "This is why Hillary is the republican version of bush."

    the implication is that half the democrats in the country are actually republicans, a sobering thought. when Obama reaches out to "republicans", does he really mean Clinton democrats?

    Clinton Channels Bush

    Hillary's hanging on to the contest dramatically proves to me that she is unfit to be our president. It is so Bush-like, is it not? It's her Iraq. She has obviously failed, yet she keeps on just to prove she's not a quitter. Where have we heard that lately? How can we depend on her? Like Bush, she cannot admit a mistake. She can't admit failure. She is not rational. She'll take us down with her.

    The charming, delightful, Howard Wolfson implied today on Chris Matthews, using very cutesy phrasing, that The Great Narcissist might go to the convention. He would not rule it out.
    He and TGN also said today that Barack can't get white, blue collar votes and that they are essential to a win in Nov.
    Where did I hear that this kind of campaigning was at an end?

    John and all ,

    Has any candidate ever acted this way in a primary season , if so Who ?

    It seems that Hillary's actions of : desperation , self-serving rule changing , , , Damn , it just pains me to continue to list her mendacity during this fetid campaign . We ALL know what's been happening .

    I think Hillary's behavior is fulfilling a negative stereotype of women . I asked my partner and she seemed uncomfortable but agreed it seems that Hill has turned out to be Bill !

    WHAT is the historical context ?

    Anybody have any answers ?

    It appears that her chances of a respectable exit are going down by the day. She is like the company that won't leave the dinner party.

    She's really hurting Chelsea. Imagine Chelsea running for office and people remembering both of her parents. Poor kid.

    GOOD!!! She has worked too hard for too long to let this pipsqueak inexperienced unknowlegable naive pep rally coach to just swoop in and brush aside her litany of solid accomplishments and understanding.
