HILLARY STOKES '08 FIRE WITH RED-HOT SPEECH

April 11, 2005 -- MINNEAPOLIS — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton bowled over the Democratic faithful in the key 2008 presidential swing state of Minnesota with a fiery weekend stump speech that had fans hailing her as the "great hope" to take back the White House.

"She speaks her mind and she's a leader," swooned Debra Manninen. "She's our great hope."

Party faithful here devoured Clinton's brand-new, red-meat material in her first major political speech Saturday night since the November 2004 election, which aides said she wrote herself.

**SNIP**

Clinton didn't say she was running for president. She didn't have to. Sen. Mark Dayton (D-Minn.) said it for her when he made an "unauthorized" introduction of the "next great president of the United States of America."

After a standing ovation by 2,000 Dems who paid $100-a-head to see her speak, Clinton slammed Bush and the Republican-controlled Congress — and never contradicted her introduction.

Clinton's Republican shredding — calling GOP lawmakers "extras in the movie 'I, Robot' " and President Bush's push for an ownership society a "you're-on-your-own society" — was just what the party here wanted.

**SNIP**

"As dumb as they are, they [the Democrats] kind of catch on quick," Rove said in his lone partisan shot, according to GOP donor Tim Eichacker, who paid $250 to be there.

When she starts spitting, it reminds me of Gallagher bashing watermelons - the first three rows better be wearing their raincoats...

That is SUCH innovative speechwriting. /sarcasm

She should just stick with calling all of us the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, she's never outdone that one.

Where was she when Terri was being starved to death? What did she say then?

and she's a leader

If she leads, I ain't following.

If she is an example of a leader, this country is in deeeeeeeeeppppppppppppp s***.

She couldn't lead a person with diarrhea to the outhouse.

If the Beast is an example of leadership, I will take Attila the Hun.

Funny, I don't think ANYONE is ready for a Woman President

That's why Hillary has a chance.

"What happens when "Aunt Flow" is on her way??"

"Aunt Flow" hasn't been in Hillary's building for years.

Listening to Shrillary's fingernails-on-a-chalkboard ranting almost leads me to pity Bill Clinton. Can you imagine the Queen of the Harpies on a tirade during the Monica Lewinsky affair? Damn.

Maybe the concentrated evil that dwells inside her skin will make it all the way to the surface and consume her before then.

Please check you spelling. The title should read "Red-Hot Screech".
