Stopping the Hillary Juggernaut: It can be done, and the Democrats have showed us how
American Thinker ^ | 08/21/2013 | Jeffrey Folks

It's obvious to any sentient being that Hillary Rodham Clinton will be the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee. Already she has begun the round of speeches at influential venues, the visits to primary states, the media spin, the heightening of speculation on "Will she run?" All of this, along with a five-part miniseries and full-length documentary planned for release ahead of the 2016 election. As for fund-raising, that is hardly a problem for the Clinton machine.

Actually, Hillary Clinton is already not only the frontrunner for her party's nomination, but also the favorite to win against any GOP candidate. The polls and oddsmakers here and abroad already confirm this assertion.

Clearly, stopping Hillary at the polls should be the first priority for conservatives. But the only way to stop her is by employing the same ruthless tactics Democrats used against Romney in 2012. Identify her greatest weakness, isolate it, and pound on it from now until November 2016. In Hillary's case, the weakness is Benghazi.

Conservatives should remind voters that Hillary Clinton was in charge when four Americans were murdered in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. As she attempts to wriggle out, as she will, they should play that video of her admitting responsibility. Play it alongside the video of the burning consulate. Play it with the photos of the men who died there.

Remind voters how she failed in her most basic duty as secretary of state: the responsibility to protect American embassy staff abroad. Then remind them of the cover-up in which she participated for weeks after the attack. Then let them know how she tried to duck responsibility altogether, assuming that the whole matter would just slip away and be forgotten.

For that to happen, she had to avoid testifying in the months following the event.

Play the race card against her?

If only Herman Cain could have kept his pants zipped...

It CAN be done, but that will take LEADERSHIP, ORGANIZATION and MOTIVATION, which the GOP hasn't shown ANY sign of having for a long, long time

All true of Hillary and Benghazi.

But she is as much a statist as Obama. She is a radical who has cloaked it a little, but not too much.

Hillarycare?

Disciple of Saul Alinsky?

Black Panthers ally, way back when?

Divisive.

Hypocritical.

Too clever by half.

Not bright.

Epic FAIL.

Pfffft, you have to have a real opposition to stop her.

The GOP and their “who’s turn is it now?” approach is not a real opposition. Besides, I have serious doubts that the GOP actually wants to win the White House.

Well, it sounds rather rude. I really don’t think her opponents could ever stomach endorsing or carrying out such a strategy.

The real question is, does the GOPe have the WILL to get in the faces of Slick Willie and the Hildebeast? I, for one, very much doubt it.

Yes, we know how the GOP will attack. I can just hear McCain: “I think Hillary Clinton would make a fine president”.

The first thing we have to do, as a country, is STOP being afraid to speak the truth. Blacks are racists and Democrats are the Islamic-Anti- Christian movement.

AND they mean to take over the country and destroy everything that was good.

We mamby - pamby around afraid of offending everyone. Enuf’ that has gotten us nowhere. They do not want peace or equality or fairness, or a civil society. They want to destroy.

Speak the truth.

You stop her by normalizing her. Bringing her down off the frigging pedestal upon which she’s been put by media and pundit hangers on with absolutely NO justification.

You begin by asking her all the embarrassing questions.

“When was the last time you and that letch you masquerade around with like a ‘couple’ were actually in bed together naked?”

“There has been a lot of speculation that you are a lesbian, specifically with your aide, Huma. Are you a Lesbian?”

“Your husband’s nose looks like a Kris Kringle after a year long binge. How much does he drink and is he an alcoholic?” “Or, alternatively, is his nose condition due to cocaine use.”

“Do you still have the 900 FBI enemy files and have you used your position as a US Senator and Secretary of State updated and/or augmented.”

“Since your departure from the State Department, how many elective cosmetic surgeries have you had?” “Along that same line, have you had your on-staff lawyers working out a refusal to return to Congress and defend your actions as SoS regarding Bengahzi?”

In short, if I could get her on a live interview, I’d ask her these and more. The goal would be to make her flaming flipping apoplectic.

If Princess Hillary gets the nomination, she is going to make this election about gender and sending another message to the world. The only hope the Republicans have is to convince her to have a military draft or registration for the draft for 18-year-old females. Then, maybe, young women will realize there is more to the world than abortions and other women-as-victims issues. If women want to be treated as men, start with the 18-year-olds and have them register for the draft. Then maybe, women will learn about world issues and the ignorance-is-bliss mentality will be eradicated.

Is the entire world (including conservatives and people on this site) going to once again pretend that Hillary is as inevitable and powerful as the sun?

The abundantly clear, oh so simple solution to Hillary is Sarah Palin.

Keep her in your thoughts, and keep your voting pencil ready.

It could very well be, we will have a battle of women next time around.

I pick Sarah.

“The only hope the Republicans have is to convince her to have a military draft or registration for the draft for 18-year-old “

It is telling that the femanazis and their supporters have not demanded women be required to register for the draft. A little hypocritical maybe?
