Report: Dumped Cat Could Come Back to Haunt Hillary Clinton Campaign
Sunday , October 21, 2007
As the “first pet” of the Clinton era, Socks, the White House cat, allowed “chilly” Hillary Clinton to show a caring, maternal side as well as bringing joy to her daughter Chelsea. So where is Socks today?
Once the presidency was over, there was no room for Socks anymore. After years of loyal service at the White House, the black and white cat was dumped on Betty Currie, Bill Clinton’s personal secretary, who also had an embarrassing clean-up role in the saga of his relationship with intern Monica Lewinsky.
Some believe the abandoned pet could now come between Hillary Clinton and her ambition to return to the White House as America’s first female president.
Clinton has been boosting her prospects in the past week with some homespun references to her gender as part of a series of events with the theme Women Changing America, during which she chatted girlfriend-to-girlfriend and mom-to-mom with female voters.
The softening of Clinton’s image seems to be working. Her chief strategist, Mark Penn, predicts that up to a quarter of Republican women will vote for her. She leads Democratic rivals in the polls by 26 points and is scooping up more donations to her war chest from Wall Street and defense contractors than any candidate from either party – an unmistakable indicator of who they think will win in 2008.

Watch for Her to adopt a cat sometime late next summer. Her focus group will tell her to do so.
Nope.
At least Hitlery didnt’t “Vince Foster” the cat.

Letting Buddy run loose... is the mark of trash.
No, it should be “arkancided.”
BREAKING NEWS: Micheal Vick was brought on to Hillary staff to be her animal compassion consult.
A big fuss was made over the dog until they left the Whitel House and then was conveniently hit by a car.
LOL.... when my cat gets that look in his eyes after I have been pestering him for a while, I am on my guard. He has no claws, got him that way from the ASPCA, he does bite.
Would this count as Hill’s “dead cat bounce?”
Socks ping
Cat or no cat, this is NEVER going to happen. I don't even know any democrat women who plan to vote for her.
The other “prop” was to tell the world that she thought she would have another child.Her poll numbers went up and no need to follow through.Despicable people!
hillllereee can wear pink ruffles, lace and dotted swiss with pink bows and barrets in her hair for the rest of her life while sitting on a pink pillow but her image will NEVER change. Evil is evil no matter how you package it.
NO women I know are voting for her. They don’t like her, don’t trust her and know she is a phony no matter what she wears to how she tries to change her speech. She is who she is and it’s not a pretty picture.
Teh clintins only had animals to appease the press. True animal lovers don’t just DUMP them when they no longer serve their purpose.
And isn’t it eerie how Hillry started laughing in every interview and now (after the negative reactions from the public) doesn’t laugh as much (if at all)?
Her supporters must really LIKE phony politicians — or else they are very very dumb.
Hillary would dump Chelsea off too if she got in the way with silly antics like needing love and attention.
If she could just dump an animal that was ‘supposed’ to be a beloved pet, imagine what she will dump when she is in office.
