In Omaha, Chelsea Clinton says her mother knows when to fight and when to compromise

Chelsea Clinton says her mother is a political realist, who knows when to stand and fight and when to compromise.

The younger Clinton also argued that her mother, Hillary Clinton, is the best candidate in the Democratic presidential field to "protect" the gains made in the White House under Democratic President Barack Obama.

"We have to have a president who knows when to stand their ground and when to find common ground," said Clinton, during a campaign stop Wednesday in Omaha on her mother's behalf.(snip)

Chelsea Clinton noted that her mother once tried to push for universal health care during her father's presidency, but that she failed to get it through Congress.

Now, her mother is committed to making sure that Obamacare is protected from Republican attempts to have it repealed.

"We can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good," said Chelsea Clinton.

Chelsea also fielded several questions from the audience. She said she has no plans "right now" to run for political office.

One woman asked Clinton how her mother maintained her dignity in the fact of political attacks.

Chelsea Clinton noted that there has never been a time in her life when her mother wasn't under attack in the political arena.

Her mother's axiom, she says, is to only take seriously "criticism from serious people."

I am reminded of how on Tuesday, Hillary said "White Americans need to recognize our privilege" http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3398163/posts

The term "white privilege" doesn't even begin to describe this untalented princess looking down her nose and badmouthing anyone who disagrees with her mother's viewpoint.

P.S. Pictures at link - if you dare. I know some of you have already had breakfast.

Her unelected mother tried to rally her cronies to steal 1/3 of the American economy and was rightfully shut down. In another time and place she would have been run out of town on a rail. Or worse.

I'm sure it has something to do with how much money is on/under the table.

Fight with any American who disagrees with you, cave in to the rest of the world.

“”

That is because private citizens are not allowed to get legislation passed. It’s a weird thing but only elected people can do that.

Fight: subpoenas

Compromise: morals, dignity and other women's safety when riding pantsless Bill to power.

It was too late for that. She was already compromised.

We should be investigating Chelsea Clinton, and her husband’s hedge fund.

This is just a money laundering extension of the Clinton Crime Syndicate

Why do the Clintons always refer to “ fight” and “fighting.” Ever notice that?

What really torques me is seeing Hillary’s podium sign: “Fighting for us”

When has this harridan ever fought for anything other than a bigger share of the vig?

And Chelsea’s father knows how to keep a secret. We haven’t heard from Web Hubble in years.

“I’m sure it has something to do with how much money is on/under the table.”

Or how many lamps or ashtrays are close at hand.

Wishing these people like Hillary would just go away never to be in the public eye again.
