If I were in Iowa, I'd be taking a trip elsewhere.

Regards, Ivan

Ping!

*sigh* I think Iowegians have more sense than to pick Hillary. But then again, since she is defeatable, it might be better to hope they don't.

[Brit1]

Sounds good to me.

[Joe Boucher]

Mrs. Clinton couldn't wait to get far away from the heartland folks of Arkansas looking down her nose at them.
The folks of Iowa are the same type of good downhome people.
I think they will see Mrs. Clinton for what she is, full of herself and just not one of them.

Miss Traczyk favoured Mr Obama, saying he had "that Kennedy factor".

So much for the wisdom of the common man/woman...

[beyond the sea]

There is a question over whether Mrs Clinton has the common touch.

Sure she does. She swears at and maligns her Secret Service and treats the military around her like servants. She's got the common touch alright. In fact she even says she has the "common" in her thoughts.

Ivan, I hope that Hitlery actually tries to ruse the populist vote. She will simply self destruct. Hitlery is a stone cold aristocrat, and cannot take hanging out with the ordinary people of America without paternalistically lecturing them.

Hitlery will be revealed in all her witchy glory.

Go Hitlery Go! Mmmmmmmm! Butterd pancakes for your THIGHNESS!

LOL.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Of course, if they don't "understand her", she'll just give 'em the Billy Dale treatment.

[haywoodwebb]

Hillary + Pancakes = Wider Load!

She'll never fit back on the bus!

[Cyclops08]

"I don't think people understand her position with Bill's infidelities."

Even Democrats are beginning to wonder about this.
Bill cheats, Hillary does...NOTHING.
They don't live together, Bill STILL cheats...NOTHING is done.

Normal women with a shred of self respect would divorce such a jerk, but not Hillary. Buba raises too much money.

I think the issue boils down to this: Is Hillary Codependent?

[proudofthesouth]

The problem isn't a woman president (though there are only one or two that I would vote for). The problem is Hitlery herself!

This woman is absolutely despicable and evil!

[csvset]

"Hillary is more of a show horse. She puts her finger in the wind, sees which way it's blowing and that's the position she takes."

She's a nag, destined for the glue factory.

[Carolinamom]

Hillary prefers to do her "chatting" from a remote, undisclosed location, not sitting in an Iowa cafe w/a cup of coffee and real live person.

[Dahoser]

To win the White House, Senator Hillary Clinton needs to sit down in the diners of the frozen flatlands of Iowa and, over coffee and buttered pancakes, persuade folks that she understands them.

The last time she did that in 2000, she and her entourage stiffed the waitress on the tip.

Not that it has mattered twice to the genius voters here in the People's Republic of New York. Hopefully most of the rest of the country won't be as stupid.

[BallyBill]

...and there's the whole Monica Lewinsky thing.

Yea, but she wouldn't let any foreign leader get away with anything she didn't know about behind her back. (heavy sarcasm)

[moonman]

"Genelle Chladek, who waited on Mrs Clinton then and remembers a "very gracious" tip"

This must have been after Hitlery made national news previously for not tipping. I guess she learned sumpin.

[moonman]

"To win the White House, Senator Hillary Clinton needs to sit down in the diners of the frozen flatlands of Iowa and, over coffee and buttered pancakes, persuade folks that she understands them"

Why would Iowa democrats be any different then rest of America. They are part of same cult. Whatever Rev.Jones, I mean, Hitlery tells them, they will blindly follow.

[sgtbono2002]

Hilary thinks she is better than the rest of us. Smarter, more capable,just above the common man. It shows ,and it hurts her. She is in a class by herself,and it isnt a very high class.

[prairiebreeze]

said Rick Schulenburg, 58, who, like many Iowans, looks at the candidates as if judging an agricultural contest.

Since many politicians are nothing but swine or sheep themselves, it's not a bad measure.

[Fireone]

"over coffee and buttered pancakes"

Yeah, those thighs and cankles need some more bulk.
