Bill Clinton Throws Hillary’s White Flag Up In Iowa
www.enewsreference.com ^ | 12/16/2007 | eNews Reference

Posted on 12/16/2007 1:51:27 AM PST by enewsreference

Bill Clinton gets on television with Charlie Rose and comes out essentially admitting defeat saying, “She might win in Iowa.” And, “I didn’t think she had a chance in Iowa,” as part of a strategy to soften the blow. Unfortunately the problem with this strategy is that the voters in Iowa might be saying something that voters all over the country will say in a fundamental way. It’s time to turn the page on the Bush/Clinton era in politics.

Of all of the wonderful things to see as the Hillary! campaign collapses, the sweetest will be watching Bill turn on her when he makes sure every last person in America understands the failure of the campaign is all Hillary!'s fault.

My question is, why did Bill Clinton eat a white flag?

That’s a good one! Bill was letting it be known in the interview that it’s Hillary’s advisors and he’s going to swoop in a save this thing.

According to the stats Limbaugh and talk radio will do much better if Clintons nominated and even better if she becomes President.

I can't. We have terrible candidates on dem side and the only two pubs (Hunter and Tancredo) don't have a chance.

Having Rush be able to make fun of Hillary for four years isn't a harbinger of hope. It's a death knell.

Afterwards, Big Brown delivers the Sad Hill in her big brown and ugly pant suit to light up a meeting for her in Gilford, NH!">

Then the Hill lights up the Gilford, NH Meeting with her charm and energy!

I think Bill is being smart - he is doing two key things - playing the gender card for her to minimize attacks from the other Democrats while lowering expectations.

The second one is important because as long as she was expected to win in a walk there was no way to “win” in the press’ eyes. With lower expectations a moderate win can be a victory.

Let’s see if I can show the influence of Slick Willie’s help on the Hillaryland campaign!

Why, are you afraid of Obama?
That depends on how you define “afraid.”
Afraid of the sort of policies he would enact? Yes.
The reversal of American prosperity his socialism would bring? Yes.
The catastrophe to America's interests around the world his foreign policy would bring? Yes.

Afraid of him winning? Not really.
However, lets face it, Obama is not as polarizing as Hillary Clinton. He would not motivate a huge turnout against him the way Hillary Clinton would. And a lot of Democrat leaning non-voters would come out to cast an historical vote for the first black Presidential candidate. He would probably still lose, but it not by as much, and most importantly, Obama may very well save down-ticket candidates in marginal races that would sink with Hillary Clinton. The reason why I want Hillary to be the Democrats' candidate is because she would mean the GOP taking back the House and Senate, too.
