N.H. GOES COLD ON CLINTON (Hill's All-Girl Team knees Bill over "swiftboat" talk)
NY POST ^ | Nov 8, 2007 | GEOFF EARLE Post Correspondent

--SNIP--Bill Clinton, speaking in Chicago yesterday, shifted his comments to warn about "swift boat" attacks from Republicans - rather than from fellow Democrats - after getting slammed by Obama and Sen. Chris Dodd for "over the top" criticism of his wife's rivals. "I thought it made all the Democrats vulnerable to a 'swift boat' kind of ad in the general election," the ex-president told reporters after a rally.

Does Bill really want her to be president?

There's no way Bill wants his "bride" to be a member of the exclusive President's club.

Whether consciously or not, he won't be able to stop himself from sabotaging her campaign.

RUSH: -- this is really funny -- people are starting to wonder if Bill Clinton is trying to sabotage Hillary with the things that he's doing and saying. Does he really want her to be a president? Does he really want her in the Oval Office? Does he really want to have an East Wing office, you know, first ladies are in the East Wing.

Bill’s greatest nightmare - If elected, Hillary might somehow have a legacy.

Bill’s remarks were more of a “shame on you, media” type thing.

He is trying to tell the media, “Do you want to help the republicans defeat us in ‘08, or what? Whose side are you on anyway?”

Ended up looking like Hill's left hand doesn't know what her right hand's doing.

Ew! Nasty visual of the bent one. Haven't had morning coffee yet.... Must... cleanse... thoughts...

Does anybody have any idea what Bubba MEANT with that Swift Boat comment?

Or was it just a desperate "throw whatever we have, hope something sticks" attack, using a buzzword that's guaranteed to provoke a Two-Minute Hate by Dim voters?

I think it’s next Wednesday or Thursday evening, 8 PM, carried on CNN and moderated by Wolf Blitzer.

Swift-boating is a synonym for truth-telling.

From the beginning I thought that Obama would be the nominee, but I think he’s worse than Hilary.

The only Dem viable in the general election is Bill Richardson.

Hillary! Osam Obama, and Edwards are all so thoroughly flawed that they would struggle to reach 40% in the general election. I believe Hillary would be their worst choice, so we should lay off until she is the nominee.

I may even watch next week's Dem debate to see her squirm

Will Tim Russert be back with questions from Don Imus, or will this one be scripted to make her look tough?

Everyone is focusing waaay too much on these little missteps. They don’t really mean much and most people aren’t even aware of it. Suggestions that she’s in trouble are kind of ridiculous. You’ve got to step back and look at the big picture.

Dear God, please let this “woman” and her rapist-husband go down in white-hot flames....

I join with you in that prayer, and the sooner the better. May the Lord rise up, and scatter His enemies!

“a buzzword that’s guaranteed to provoke a Two-Minute Hate by Dim voters?”

I know what you mean. Big Brother/Bubba can’t always blame Goldstein/Edwobama, or the vast right wing conspiracy/Eurasia, everytime Billary gets it’s a$$ in a crack.
He’s just `mixing things up’ by providing the Dhimmies with painful memories of the bricks used by real brown-water sailors to clap JFrikkenK’s tiny bells in `04: the truth about his swiftboat mis-adventures.
That gets them howling and on their feet!

Folks like Hillary will be hard to kill.

Obama is not and was never intended to be a presidential candidate. This is just a warmup for VP slot.

And the other candidates are dwarves. They dont have the money and the staying power to defeat hillary.

So while Hillary is in a tough spot, dont count her out.
