Hillary Clinton wants to be the darling of the left and the candidate of the center, and why not? More than any other Democrat, save oneher husbandshe knows what it takes to win, and she fully and completely comprehends the opposition.
Liberals went ballistic this week when Clinton called for a ceasefire among Democrats at a much ballyhooed appearance before the DLC, the centrist Democratic Leadership Council that helped elect her husband president. Clintons Rodney King Moment, is all about 2008, says a former John Kerry adviser: What shes saying is, Why cant we all get along and support me?
Clinton didnt single out liberals, and her intent might have been more ecumenical in urging all wings of the party to turn their guns on the hard-right ideology in Washington instead of each other. But her presence at the DLC convention in Columbus, Ohio, spoke volumes. It said to the left that this is where she is planting her flag for the presidential race. And what shes doing now is taking care of whatever perceived weaknesses she has, as well as those of the Democratic Party. She shouldnt trim her principles, but she has the leeway to defy the liberal stereotypes. As a progressive in a country where half or more of voters are reflexively conservative, she has to find ideas that surprise people and grab their attention if shes going to break through as a national candidate.
This kind of intraparty warfare is familiar ground for Democrats. Hillarys comments were almost identical to the sentiments Bill Clinton voiced some 15 years ago at a DLC event when there was a dispute with the Democratic National Committee. Having the vast left-wing conspiracy after you isnt a bad thing in a political climate where the liberal label is problematic.....

Not that I can imagine Hillary getting sweet with men...
yup , Sir Edmund Hillary Clinton can't speak the truth and won't tell the truth about even things like her parents naming her!!!!! Most American voters sadly don't know this about her,they may sense something is amiss,though
Elanor still has her knee pads from her service to x42.
Read 'Dereliction of Duty' and find out how she feels about anything remotely associated with the military. The book should be a "must read" for anyone even THINKING about voting for Hillary Clinton.
Hillary is a very very real threat and the thought of her as president makes me sick equally as much as the dodged bullet of sKerry almost winning. My hope for all our sakes is that you're right in thinking red-staters won't be fooled. What makes it scary is that a majority of Americans still absorb the BS coming out of the MSM. We all know that Hillary will have complete domination with the MSM to her advantage. On a positive note however, Americans are flocking towards Foxnews and "The New Media"(i.e. FR) in droves.

...and the horse she rode in on.
You need to be alerted on every Hillary thread
That's not her horse,
It's her ASS!
ROTF.......er ...uh...literally : )
Hillary is as phony as they comes but she has a very good chance of becoming our next president, very scary.
Why does she have a good opportunity?
"Why can't we all get along and support me?"God help us!
It must be that mutt face of hers
Even Juan Williams said it isn't inevitable she'll get the nomination. I think she'll be sabotaged by the other candidates from her own party, as another "inevitable heir apparent" Gary Hart probably was in 1988 (maybe Dukakis?).
Now that is classic.....I like that.....you should use that for your tag line.....lololol
