Hillary Clinton's Popularity Up in State, Even Among Republicans

I think this pretty much sums up what the military thinks of Hillary...

[devolve]

Hill is hated in the South & flyover red states

Hill is no Slick Willie

Let the DNC burn their money on her

[PhiKapMom]

Do they think that McCain talking about Hillary is going to help her with Republicans -- they need a dose of reality -- she is still polarizing out here in Flyover Country!

[Deetes]

Really makes you wonder when people are ready to throw the towel in 4 years out.

I mean give me a break, I wonder how many deep cover DUmmies we have here :-) Or just plain idiots.

[investigateworld]

LOL !!! Airborne All the Way!

[John Lenin]

Can you say 'they will be coming out of the woodwork' ?

RE: "Nice try N.Y.T.'s but McCain and N.Y. Republicans are not a good litmus test and you know it."


Maybe a FEW NYers might fall for her charade here and there, but If HC the dyed-in-the-red socialist thinks that she can fool her way into taking any of the more moderate or conservative Southern/Western states from the Republican nominee in '08 she is BADLY mistaken.

People's memories are not as short as you'd think, 'ya know? Most of the 'Pubbies I know (and a few of the Democrats too) remember her extreme influence on the corrupt, disasterous administration of her husband and we sure as hell won't let her forget it.

As for my own homestate of Alabama (a perfect representative of the type of conservative bastion Hillary is aiming to steal away in '08), we went to Pres. Bush with 63% of the vote in 2004. Conservative 'Pubbies occupy 5 of the 7 congressional seats (with a Blue-dog Dem in one of the other spots), and the Democrat-controlled state legislature is rushing to ban gay marriage in Alabama as fast as it's head can spin (I don't agree with that, but it's a pretty good example of how conservative we really are down here). Does Mrs. Clinton have any idea how little chance there is that a radical leftist like her will appeall to Southerners, Westerners, or conservatives in general.

Alabama is a challenge for old shrillery if I ever saw one, and similar massive defeat awaits her in Mississippi, Louisiana, Utah, Texas, both Virginias, and even Florida.


Come and get it, Hil. We "red-staters" are waiting for you (he, he).

[PhiKapMom]

Don't think some of you get it -- here in Oklahoma immigration is not a really big issue as it isn't in a lot of states -- in fact, I am not sure where it would rank in priorities but we are a conservative state and getting rid of activists judges far outweighs any discussion of immigration.

Not sure some of you on here are the ones that don't understand that immigration is not the number one issue with a lot of voters unless they live along a border. Not saying it is right, but it is reality.

She can't win in the South... she probably couldn't even win Arkansas. .. and this will be the look on her face the day after the election...

Just in case people have forgotten

Hillary was no stranger to having her own White House sleepovers to raise money for her NY Senate campaign just like her husband.

Her biggest influences while in college were Saul Alinsky, Carl Oglesby and Marian Wright Edelman. All in which are radical hard-core left wing activists.

Hillary and her husband both loathed the military and did assign them not to wear uniforms on the grounds of the White House.

Hillary’s Democratic delegates heckled and spit on the Albany Honor Guard of the Albany Police Department at a Democratic convention calling them Nazi’s of the third reich.

She walked out on a tip in a NY restaurant before her election and her entire family walked out again in England without even paying their entire bill in a pub.

She actively used the used the Secret Service to block questions from the press including average NY citizens during her campaign run working to her advantage.

She was was the head of her husbands legal defense team during the impeachment trial. Remember the trial included abuse of power with women including sexual misconduct, threats and obstruction of justice.

She had a rumored affair with Vince Foster which is convincing since they both had joint investments in Pharmaceutical stocks with the firm Stevens Investments. Hillary set this up right after her big health care scare failed.

Lets not also forget that the missing billing records from the Rose law firm that were in Vince Fosters office that had been subpoenaed suddenly ended up on Hillary’s night stand with her fingerprints all over the place?

Hillary had a photo op and numerous meetings with a DNC campaign fund raiser Jorge Cabrara who is a convicted drug ringleader.

Cattle-gate Where Hillary turned one thousand dollars into one hundred thousand dollars overnight in cattle futures, which still baffles the best minds working at Wall Street.

Travelgate Hillary was in charge of throwing out the employees of the travel office and hiring family friends and relatives inserting them in a coupd’etat fashion.

Filegate Hillary was also in charge of hiring White House staffers to sift through FBI files illegally obtained by the White House.

Does this women deserve to be our next President?

GAAAWWWWD!

I don't know where you got that photo from, but the Fugly waves it gives off are powerful enough to knock a mountain into the Indian Ocean.

A Rocky mountain.

Okay, so you can't read. I said

"if the Republicans...put up someone who can't deflect her arguments on free trade, they'll be unpleasantly surprised in 2008"

I happen to think the Republicans can win with free trade--they've done it before--but they have to put up someone who can make a case for their position, instead of trying to dance around it like a Rat. Especially when they know it will be her issue as far as the 'idiots' are concerned. Some Republicans have demonstrated that they understand this and are quitting the free trade and open border ranks (Newt Gingrich, for example, is making noise on this). I don't LIKE these candidates, necessarily, but I do think they're being smart in trying to mute this issue.

In the meantime, I cordially invite you to rethink your comments. There are plenty more than 5 or 6 voters who will be motivated by a protectionist stand, especially one that deals with immigration at the same time. Our concern should be that they'll end up voting for a woman whose sole goal in extending protectionism and closing down immigration is to concentrate her power here.

So feel free to make another smartass comment about Lou Dobbs. But you'll be laughing out of the other side of your face if Hillary is elected because people like you nominate a Republican candidate who can't persuade the public regarding these issues, around which Hillary seems to planning her candidacy, and which the media will certainly highlight.

[John Lenin]

It will be the undercurrent I'm talking about that will do her in . Liberalism has wreaked havock on lots of children and adults and it will come back to bite the witch. She can run, but she can't hide.

It takes a village, she is going to regret she ever wrote that book.

[xm177e2]

Hillary will be a formidable candidate. FReepers mostly don't see it, because we hate her so much. But she is good at getting votes, from liberals and moderates alike. If she keeps up this "tomboy Democrat" pose (common sense, strong on defense, family values except where they conflict with gay rights), she will be a tough contender in the 2008 election.

[Digger]

Withouw reading any replies I will make the prediction that this witch is going to be, sadly, the next president. I believe the corrupt "Two-Party Cartel" has crowned that title to her just like done to GW. If it does happen I will forever quit the electoral fandango proving that ones vote means nothing to this fixed elite voting process.

[John Lenin]

Blah , blah, blah, bring it on. You may be scared, but I'm not.

[LibertarianInExile]

I'd prefer NOT to see the House have to do the dirty work all the time, thanks. I'll vote for almost anyone before that witch. God, I wish we had a Reagan in the wings. I despair of a new conservatism rising again, though, every time I see people here touting government action for "good" reasons. Compassionate conservatism certainly isn't.

Ah, hell. Rummy in 2008.
