"U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton said Sunday that she became fond of the people of Arkansas during the 19 years she spent living in the state. But her former Whitewater business partner Susan McDougal remembers things differently.
"I loved Arkansas," Mrs. Clinton told ABC's Barbara Walters. "And the people of Arkansas were not only very good to me, but I made some of the best friends that I've ever made."
But in a 1996 interview with "Blood Sport" author James Stewart, McDougal recalled Hillary showing disdain for the residents of her husband's home state.
McDougal described an encounter out on the campaign trail, where an Arkansas woman offered Mrs. Clinton a pair of earrings shaped like hogs, the Arkansas Razorback mascot.
According to author Stewart, "Hillary mustered a thank-you, then the woman asked her to put them on. Hillary wouldn't. With the woman out of earshot, she turned to Susan [and said], 'This is the kind of s--t I have to put up with.'"
In 1999, Mrs. McDougal explained to NewsMax why the former first lady didn't like dealing with Arkansans.
'Big Hog Gathering'
"In Arkansas politics, you pretty much know everybody's cousin and their grandbabies. And it's a big hog gathering, you know. And Hillary was not used to that.
"I do not blame Hillary at all for saying, I cannot put these hog earrings on. Now, I would have put the hog earrings on and I would have had a good time. But this was not her kind of deal. She's a lot more intelligent than I am." Source
You know....
Maybe Clinton flavored Kool Aid and even Barry flavor has the same shelf life as everything to the new generation. I mean the iphones are only awesome until the new model comes out and there are ‘early fall/late fall clothes now.
Wouldn’t it be great if the Dems were undone by all the ritalin they gave people? I mean the whole ADD mentality they engineered in society as a whole?
Oh the freaking irony.
Christians worship Christ as their Savior.
Clinton Democrats are the same, only different.
These terms apparently have no meaning anymore.
She is so Two Decades Ago. There is NO comparison of her “Pretty in Pink” interviews and the disheveled unkempt Senator of yore. Even her run up make over for 2008 was pathetic. Sorry Hillary, the end date on your packaging has expired and you need to go on off and be a grandma (if you can avoid a jail sentence for treason).
How truly crappy must obola’s poll numbers actually be that the dims would be desperate enough to turn to an albatross like the Clintons? I guess some parts of the bottom of the barrel look greener than others.
An old brain damaged lesbo with cankles, what other qualifications are there?
“My feeling is that the underlying fundamentals in the region work against the Democrats.”
The, ‘underlying fundamentals’ such as LIBERTY? FREEDOM? LOVING AMERICA? Those? ;)
I loathe these people. Just die, already! I’ll take the week-long love-fest form the MSM just to have it OVER with! Why are evil people like the Clintons permitted to go on and on and on? Enough! SO sick of them!
A dirty old man and a grouchy old woman? These are the best the Democrats can muster?
“Bill! Get off that bimbo! And get that bimbo off our lawn!”
If only it were so for all fifty states.
The same faction that derailed her previous trek to her coronation are working to prohibit Hillary again.
The media and the Clintonistas fawn over the Clintons, but they do not represent the entirety of the Dem party.
Look for another surprise challenger.
Right now, it seems the big push is for Senator Native American Princess. The Senator Princess has more things going for her than Hillary does: light political trail, no major political disasters, youthful compared to the aged Hillary. She is also female, which would give the Dems crowing rights by nominating a female to the top job.

“Self-proclaimed Clinton Democrats are struggling this election cycle, and not even their powerful namesakes may be enough to save them.”
Huh?
I seem to recall that bozo kicked their ass.
“to help centrist Democrats”
That is just to funny. A centrist dimoKKKRAT, bwahahahahaha, hahahahahaha, hehehehehehe.
She is a former N.Y. Senator-she has nothing in common with the South.
I seem to remember that the Clintons have always had negative coattails....oh, and this southerner doesn’t like Bubba the Rapist and his Trotskyite wife.
Maybe the Democrats can carry Georgia if they nominate Elizabeth Warren—giving Georgians a chance to atone for the sin of their ancestors when they stole the land of her Cherokee ancestors.
