NY Times Editorial: Primary Choices: Hillary Clinton (Barf Alert)

The New York Times ^ | January 25, 2008 | Editorial

[Aristotelian]

This generally is the stage of a campaign when Democrats have to work hard to get excited about whichever candidate seems most likely to outlast an uninspiring pack. That is not remotely the case this year.

The early primaries produced two powerful main contenders: Hillary Clinton, the brilliant if at times harsh-sounding senator from New York; and Barack Obama, the incandescent if still undefined senator from Illinois. The remaining long shot, John Edwards, has enlivened the race with his own brand of raw populism.

As Democrats look ahead to the primaries in the biggest states on Feb. 5, The Times’s editorial board strongly recommends that they select Hillary Clinton as their nominee for the 2008 presidential election.

[Aristotelian]

The Times singles out "her abiding, powerful intellect." Ah, ha. "The smartest woman in the world" theory. Now we get it.

[SatinDoll]

Never mind that she’s one of the most corrupt and criminal Senators in the history of this nation.

The Times’s editorial board strongly recommends that they select Hillary Clinton as their nominee for the 2008 presidential election.

Not that they have much to choose from.

I can only wonder what news organizations are doing by endorsing anyone? Couldn't they just pretend to be objective?

[mware]

LOL, the contrast between their democratic and republican endorsements are so outlandish that you just have to laugh.

The Times singles out "her abiding, powerful intellect." Ah, ha. "The smartest woman in the world" theory. Now we get it.

She so bloody smart that they provided, let's see......ZERO examples of her smartness, NOTHING! No list of accomplishments. NOTHING! Only some vague hope that she'll be the savior of America, and, the world.

Re: Hillary Clinton, the brilliant

Please tell me this is Scrappleface.

What has she ever done which could even remotely be termed brilliant?

"harsh-sounding senator from New York"

There's an understatement. Besides, we always knew the NYT was racist.
