I am really put off by the shallow coverage of this campaign.

Hillary Clinton Commemorative Stamp
The US Postal Service has issued a recall of a stamp they created with a picture of Hillary Clinton to honor her achievements while serving as the First Lady of our nation.

The problem was discovered when claims had been made that the stamp was not sticking to envelopes, and that mail which had been sent using the "Hillary" postage was not being delivered. Senator Clinton demanded a full investigation into the allegations.

A special Postal Service Investigation team was formed and after several months and many dollars spent, made the following findings:

*The stamp was manufactured properly.
*There was nothing wrong with the adhesive.
*People were just spitting on the wrong side

"She came in with the Secret Service and about six others," said Mrs Chladek. "She sat way inside the booth as kind of a protection manoeuvre, though she did visit people as she left."

This says it all. Make an appearance, but don't really connect until you have put in your time so you can say I was there.

On the way out stop at 1 or 2 of the smitten, and declare that connecting with the people.

Seems like the visit was kind of one sided " don't you think"

The Clintons have sat down in plenty of diners acorss NYS. The writer of the article should rememeber that. Their modus operandi is well established. They never leave a tip and usually leave bad feelings behind among the locals (while garnering fawning articles from the shilling MSM).

Right on.

Why do people think she is aristocracy? Hillary is from middle to upper middle class Chicago suburbs. BFD.

The lifestyle she planned to become used to was provided solely by Bill. Illusions of grandeur and entitlement.

So, this is class?

silly-hilly was looking for a nice easy slip into the presidency. She's discovering that she may have to actually speak--and that'll sink it for her.

"We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good." -Hillary Rodham Clinton, 6/28/04 ...

This should be a part of every pubbies stump speech. Most of the sheep are ignorant of the intent, tenaciousness, and malice of the shearer...

The 'one of us' argument is interesting, because ultimately an amazing number of people vote for the candidate they'd rather have a beer with ... can you picture the average voter wanting to have a beer with Jon Cary or Hillary? Obama and Edwards, among the Dems, fare better on that score.

If I could 'have a beer' with anyone, it'd be Ben Stein but, alas, he's not running.

"I just don't know if the US is ready for a woman president," said Genelle Chladek.

It has nothing to do with her being a woman - it has to do with HER.

These are Iowan Democrats... the same viral infection that destroys the minds of decent people in every state can take root there, too.

Citizens in fly-over country need to realize that Hillary hates you and all you represent - individualism, self-initiative, and a belief in free enterprise.

she wins in up state new york.she can probably win in rural america.

She came into the diner with 6 secret service and a bunch of others and then sat at the far end of the booth. What was she afraid if? Afraid someone would look her in the eye or heaven forbid, touch her?

"she wins in up state new york"

You're right, some areas in upstate New York are as liberal as any in the big cities. The liberal voting is brought about as the productive exit these areas, leaving the area to welfare layabouts and others who believe they are entitled to other people's money.

The same exodus is currently going on in Michigan. Young people, the coveted 21 to 34 year old demographic, more correctly young families - the future, are leaving by the tens of thousands. They are following the businesses that are leaving. Anyone who wants a future for their family and the right to enjoy the fruits of their labor are leaving blue midwestern states en mass.

What remains is the big liberal voting block - welfare slugs, companies and bureaucrats who sponge off government and retirees who draw pensions.
