The Official Hillary Clinton support thread

[IglooDame]

As I've expressed numerous times on this board I'm extremely concerned about climate change. US policy on climate change will affect the rest of the world including Australia. And you know that Australia and US are strong allies now and will be in the future. So I think I have a right to be interested.

I like Hillary because I think America under Bill Clinton was great. But I'll be content with any of the Democrats. I think all their environmental policies are sound.

Anyone but Ron Paul who starts talking about property rights when asked a question about climate change. He doesn't believe in it. He doesn't need to, he'll be dead soon enough. We're the ones that are going to be left with the mess.

Sweet jeezumchristmas, you bring up and bash Ron Paul in your own Hillary Clinton discussion thread?

I think this thread deserves a comeback...



Hillary storms back with video of winning speech

 

[Bast]

Support Hillary guys. She still has a chance.

 

[MjM]

Hopefully not. Obama 08.

 

[CaptainF]

Support Hillary guys. She still has a chance.

Nah, not really.

Support Hillary guys. She still has a chance.

Will do....

in November if shes on the ballot. For now I'm rooting for the Obamanation.

 

[Bast]

Sorry Obama fans but we - Hillary and supporters - and this thread just refuse to go away.

Here's the excellent Jack Nicholson ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsweXFpfa28

Hill's back!

 

[JerichoHill]

Check out the Dem Primary Stat projections, Bast. You'll see she failed to change the math.

Her own supporter Gov Strickland said that she had to win Ohio and Texas by 8% each to get back into this. Obviously, she failed in texas.

 

[Trajan12]

Hill's back!

No she isn't. Students! Pull out your calculators! Can anyone tell me why it's numerically improbable for Hillary to win now?

OOOOH!!OHH! I know!

Because even with wins in both states she nets less than 20 delegates against Obama.

It's 3 a.m. You wake with hunger pangs. Who do you want to have baked the cookies?

 

[Godwynn]

It's like the Hillary Supporters want McCain to win in the Fall.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Are you saying a black man can't bake cookies

Texas is just a sucker for a damsel in distress.

 

[JollyRoger]

Are you saying a black man can't bake cookies

No. If Obama had more experience, then I might feel more comfortable with him personing the White House oven.

 

[Cato the Elder]

Yeah, she's better than McCain, but that's it. Obama's still the least incompetent candidate in this race.

 

[Bast]

It's 3 a.m. You wake with hunger pangs. Who do you want to have baked the cookies?

Bill Clinton. Sweetie, if Hillary becomes President, you know who will be wearing the pants and who will be forced to do the baking, right? And that's just not the White House. The toughest glass ceiling in the world is about to be shattered.

 

[BirraImperial]

I kind of have the feeling that if Hillary wins, the Dems would be giving the election to the GOP in a silver platter.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

The toughest glass ceiling in the world is about to be shattered.

You know that you are constantly focussing on the fact that she's female?

Just sayin'

 

[JerichoHill]

By Hillary's own staff, she failed in what she needed to do

Chief Strategist Mark Penn: “After March 4th, over 3000 delegates will be committed, and we project that Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama will be virtually tied with 611 delegates still to be chosen in Pennsylvania and other remaining states. Again and again, this race has shown that it is voters and delegates who matter, not the pundits or perceived ‘momentum.’”

Clinton aide Guy Cecil: "We think that at the end of the day on March 4 we will be within 25 delegates.”

Howard Wolfson: “I Think We Will Be Ahead In The Delegate Race After Texas And Ohio.”

See, this is what I dont get. Her campaign folks states these claims, and then, when they dont come true, spin victory another way, and its accepted.

Two weeks ago folks were saying that HIll needed 20% victories to get back in it.

Hillary can win the primary, but she's going to do it by nuking Obama, and with it, I believe, a chance for dem win in the fall will be nuked as well. Its pretty obvious from a stats perspective that she's not getting the crossover from R's and I's needed to beat McCain.

Now, if there's a complete Obama meltdown, then she can win and the Dems can have a party not divided, sure, thats plausible. But the meltdowns only going to come with a hard negative campaign filled with juicy talking points for McCain to use against either, so its a double edged sword

Bill Clinton. Sweetie, if Hillary becomes President, you know who will be wearing the pants and who will be forced to do the baking, right? And that's just not the White House. The toughest glass ceiling in the world is about to be shattered.

Hillary has to win about 70% of the votes in each remaining primary. I don't recall her ever beating Obama by a margin of 20, unless I missed something. She hasn't typically won her states by huge margins..

All she's doing is ensuring that the Dems candidate has the least amount of time possible to prepare. If she doesn't win she's only screwing over Barack and if she does win(next to impossible) not only does she have little time to get a campaign going for president and repair the fractured democratic party, but half the country hates her...which adds up to about 0 Repubs and very few independents or moderates.
