The demorats run for the presidential nomination is going to be so uggglllly that I can't wait to see it.Mud wrestling won't even come close to second place.

[Old Grumpy]

This is very interesting news. If they can convince the rest of the country that Hillary has too much "baggage" maybe the Democrats will select somebody else to run and put her in her place once and for all.

Charlite,
Either they are tired of seeing her mug all over the place or really aren't down with her moderate make over that she's been trying to put over on the masses. Rush Limbaugh has been saying for a long time that the Clinton's will not go away.....how true. Definitely a trend to keep an eye on.

Is she gay? Angry?

Why, just the other evening Weekly World News reports she kicked in the door of a Georgetown 'Daughters of Lesbos' bar and screamed, "I can lick anyone in the joint."

Well they had better come up with a plan quick. She's a one-woman locust storm and she's coming. {{{{shiver}}}}}

As the article points out even many democrats don't like Hillary, what's to like? The office I work in is stafffed by mostly liberals, informal poll here for Hillary in 08
1 for 6 against.

"Talking to some of them, I found concern that Hillary carries too much baggage..."

Wow! If she has too much 'baggage' for West coast liberals, that's saying something. That's sort of like a whore telling you that you have bad breath, or something! Right?

I USED to be a Democrat, until the Clintons came along. Back then, a friend told me that he was plugged into Democratic circles and that it was well known that she was a lesbian and had a female companion. So it's hearsay at least twice removed. All I can say is that I am being honest in that I heard it, from someone I trusted. Since my political "conversion," he has denied having that conversation.

I hate it when people just post stuff with no proof on a web site. But all I can vouch for is my own honesty. It's up to others to decide whether or not I'm full of crapola.

I'm sure many would say it doesn't matter. It's interesting to note, however, that portions of the media seem to have few qualms about "outing" gay people whom they brand as hypocrites for not supporting "gay marriage." I don't believe Senator Clinton supports it either. In any event, that's the last I'm mentioning of this - but you did ask.

In general, I wonder whether Hillary for President is like the EU constitution in a way - a foregone conclusion and fully supported by the elites, but an instant, huge flop when presented to the voters. I hope so. Wrong ideology and bad character. The worst of both worlds.

It was Bill that Hollywood was in love with!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I live in Memphis, Tenn. an annex of Arkansas. This is small town America and everybody knows everybodies business. Of all the things that I have heard about the Clinton's, Mrs. Clinton being a lesbian is not one of them. I think that if was true the rumor would be wide spread here.

[WireAndWood]

I fully expect that Hollywood will receive marching orders, and they will obey. They will fawn over Hildabeast just as they did over Wee Willie... probably moreso.

"Why, just the other evening Weekly World News reports she kicked in the door of a Georgetown 'Daughters of Lesbos' bar and screamed, "I can lick anyone in the joint."

That's priceless. You made my day!

[cvq3842]

Fair enough. Like I said, I don't plan on mentioning it again.

[Digger]

Another woman office holder was hostile to a Clinton candidacy on a more personal basis. "Don't think that Hillary has the women's vote," she told me. "I will never forgive her for sticking with her husband after he humiliated her. It's something I can't get over."

I think this is the surprise. Many feel this way who would vote for Kerry or any other. let's just see what any of them do on illegal immigration. This will be the upside to any who oppose it.

"I will never forgive her for sticking with her husband after he humiliated her. It's something I can't get over."


This is very interesting.

[CHARLITE]

"There really isn't much to like about either of them. Rushless, Power-hungry trashy phonies, both of them."

I love your comment, and I agree completely. History will show that these two are a blight on America's reputation. The damage that they have already caused is truly inestimable. It is staggering, when you begin to reflect upon all of their potentially criminal acts, going all the way back to their start-up Arkansas ("arkancide?") days.

Thanks for your comment, priarie.

On the advice of former president Carter, Madelyn Albright and president Hillary/Wm. Clinton sold out America's national security to *appease* North Korea.

The treasonous "liberal" mantra is "more global equality."
Needless to say, dispensing "equality" is not giving every nation and odd country an equal number of nuclear weapons.

If any politician deserves a pie thrown in their face, I suggest that even a pie facial could not improve Mad Albright.

Terrorist Attack 9/11 is the H/W Clinton legacy.
Anti-Americanism throughout the world is Albright's legacy.
