GEFFEN UNLOADS ON HILLARY: 'SHE CAN'T WIN'
Thu Feb 17 2005 23:13:00 ET
Sen. Hillary Clinton should not count on help from Hollywood mogul David Geffen in her possible run for the White House.
Geffen, who was a generous supporter and pal of Bill Clinton when he was president, trashed Hillary's prospects last night during a Q&A at the 92nd St. Y in New York City.
"She can't win, and she's an incredibly polarizing figure," the billionaire Democrat told his audience. "And ambition is just not a good enough reason."
Lloyd Grove reports in fresh editions of the NY DAILY NEWS the audience broke with "hearty applause" over Geffen's comments.
Developing...
lol
Hillary's closet has more in it than just pantsuits made by 'DC Tent & Awning'
she is very cunning.
"feminist majority" loves her.
The test of her real popularity will be if NY can be suckered into voting for her. Of course it depends on her competition. If the put another wimp or beta male against her then she will waltz right into a second term.
"she is very cunning."
Yes, I hear she is a cunning linguist, as well....LOL
Geffen is just running interference.
Don't drop your guard.....
"she is very cunning."
A cunning stunt.
BOOKMARK! BOOKMARK!
How sweet it is.
If Hillary has lost the upper west siders she's toast. Those are her most rabid followers. I have a feeling the party faithfull have switched to Boxer.
I agree....If you switch the first two letters of each word.
I hope you meant that he will win the nomination.
Unfortunately, Hillary can overcome much of her baggage, especially in the primary (I believe she is unbeatable in the Dem primary). Among other things, she is an adroit blame-shifter.
Against which Republican candidate?
Mark Warner or Bill Richardson...
Pray for W and Our Amazing Troops
Well, I can't say I don't agree with his assessment!
Evan Bayh will win the election.
Would the dems even nominate him?
I don't know about that. Unless there is sort of "Swiftboat Vets Against Hillary," the press will treat her with kid gloves and trip over themselves promoting her just like they did with Kerry this past election. And even if such a group were to come out against Hillary, I'm not sure what impact it would have, unfortunately--Kerry, unlike she, was an unknown quantity and I don't know if people would be surprised about anything they heard about her anymore.
And that's just south of her hips !
Bet that left a mark!
