HILLARY. New York state has embraced her. Will the rest of the country if she runs for president?

[Mike Bates]

Why would anyone read anything that lame if they're not stranded on an island or something?

To confirm my suspicions of the MSM. Oh, and to make fun of it, too.

[miss marmelstein]

I showed my embrace by leaving NY when she got elected.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

But the Democrat has shed much of her image as a broom-riding carpetbagger and gained more than a little respect and appreciation in some of the most conservative corners of the state.

And what color is the sky on your home planet?

[BIGLOOK]

The Opposition has always underestimated the Clintons's ability to mount a campaign.

Pardon me?

[Erasmus]

When she says "our Lord," you know she doesn't mean it.

Well, she mutters a word between "our" and "Lord" that you can hear only if you're about a foot away.

The word is "Dark."

HILLARY. New York state has embraced her. Will the rest of the country if she runs for president?

Ummmmmmm . . . . . . NO!!

[Doctor Stochastic]

Pardon me?

That's one of their techniques.

[tcrlaf]

Which is why you see the beginning of a relentless media campaign to make her the de facto winner, already...

[LADY J]

"She is also a dwarf with a cromagnon sized head who loves her blond hair treatment with blue contact lenses. So proud of her 'real self'."

Don't forget the wide-load's piano legs and thunder thighs!!

Paints a pretty picture. 'Embrace her' doesn't come to mind here!! LOL

I guess if NY thinks Schumer is a winner - Wide-load must be okay with them too. Must be something in the water there!!

[jos65]

This bears repeating,with your permission:

I can not embrace her with both middle fingers already extended.

Sign me "Another dissatified New Yorker"

[The Mayor]

She has no idea how everyone she met that day truly detested her and would never vote for her.

But yet the beast got elected. I only know a couple people that voted for her and they will not do it again. They pull these stories out of dreamland..

[donmeaker]

My aunt voted for Reagan for President, to get him out of California.

Remember, the last NY Senator who ran for president was Robert Kennedy. That didn't work out well either. Wacked by a Muslim in CA.

[BIGLOOK]

Hillary never attained an elected office prior to her success in the NY senate run.

I don't recall any legislation she's authored.

Hillary stood on the sidelines while Bush, Giuliani and Pataki announced the emergency aid to NYC after 9/11.

Hillary wasn't warmly embraced when she showed up at tributes and funerals of cops and firefighters who perished on 9/11. (This is BIG).

NY state citizens can't stand her (other than Ithaca and Buffalo).

Bill ain't there to pardon her constituency anymore.

Hillary isn't nor has ever been a New Yorker.

Out in '06.

[oceanview]

well, all I can tell you is that in her senate run - she never had to do that. and unfortunately, when her opponent did get into a debate with her - he blew it by walking over to her podium with some "agreement" he was irking her to sign.

[mewzilla]

Dear Ms. Anderson: I'm a Dem living in one of those conservative bits you mentioned.

You're full of it.

Nice try, though.

I don't think she'll get a repeat on her NY stealth campaign.

[new yorker 77]

Feel free to use it.

Just remember to give credit here.

I also like.

Pick a finger from one to ten. You have a 20% chance of being right.

[oceanview]

she will.

to beat Hillary, we are going to need alot of conservative 527 organizations. the media will give her a free ride, and the republican party won't have the stones to run a negative campaign against her. we need 527s.

I haven't seen that. In fact the talking heads regularly bring up the topic that she may not even be nominated.

There's been a backdrop that she would run since late 2000. But there's also been a growing realization that she can't possibly win. She is not Bill Clinton, and she does not have his charisma, his stamina, or his genial nature. In fact she's precisely the opposite in every respect.

When I think of Hitlery, it's like the doomed mechanical candidacy of Bob Dole combined with the persona of Imelda Marcos. Utterly repellent.
