Maureen Dowd: Selfless Hillary

Pittsburgh Post Gazette ^ | April 3,2008 | Dowd

NEW YORK - Democrats getting jittery about the alienating effects of the endless soap opera they call their campaign should buck up. These "hand-wringers," as the Hillary strategist Harold Ickes calls them, are not seeing the larger picture.

[Izzy Dunne]

Hillary is cruelly misunderstood, and she deserves more credit for her benevolence. Not only does she have a lot in common with Rocky, as she said on Tuesday in Philadelphia. She has a lot in common with another famous cultural character -- the Marschallin in Strauss' comic opera "Der Rosenkavalier."

Oh, gag me with a typewriter, why dontcha.

I can't tell if this is satire or not - Mo seems so serious about it.

Hillary is in this to "give O'bama more seasoning"?

Pu-leeze.

[Izzy Dunne]

If she had not fibbed about the Tuzla airport landing, and then fibbed to get out of a fib, the press would have stayed focused on Rev. Wright. She has been an invaluable lightning rod.

GUFFAW!

She raised the Tuzla BS to take the heat off O'bama and Wright.

Yeah, I believe that.

[perez24]

I don’t think she’s clever enough for actual satire, but it is sarcasm.

[rockprof]

St. Hillary.

What a load of B.S.

[Eurale]

MoDo is a drooling idiot.

[Izzy Dunne]

But the ultimate favor Hillary can do for the Illinois freshman is to fight him full-out until the finale and then gracefully release him so he can find happiness with another.

OK, now I'm gonna hurl for sure.

Ms. Dowd aint got nothing on this babe.

[Coldwater Creek]

As someone else said this morning “Rocky lost to a handsome black man” Maybe this will be the common denominator.

God, please spare us....You must be kidding... I’m not reading anymore this morning....this killed it for me...

I for one appreciate the selflessness of Mo Dowd, penning these idiotic screeds just so I can see sexy pictures of Catherine Zeta Jones.

I too, appreciate the idiocy of MoDo.

[rockrr]

Mo-reen talks purtier than a $2 whore (too bad she don’t look as good...;’}

[NY.SS-Bar9]

OK, I’m clueless (just ask anyone)

What is the relationship between Mo and CZJ?

[Inspectorette]

Ah yes - the magnificent Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) - what a gorgeous hunk he was!

"I for one appreciate the selflessness of Mo Dowd, penning these idiotic screeds just so I can see sexy pictures of Catherine Zeta Jones."

Ah, yes, the one redeeming feature of Mo Dowd's otherwise miserable and worthless existence..... she helps to bring us many tasty images of the always delectable Catherine Zeta-Jones!

Never let it be said that Mo Dowd is incapable of arousing excitement in red-blooded healthy males...... by providing us with photos of her rival.
