Hillary stupidly pandered to illegals by installing Patti Solis Doyle as the campaign's chief strategist----Solis is the ninny who patented Clinton's failed "inevitability" strategy.

Solis finally got fired---too late. The damage was already done.

BACKUP Even though Clinton had faced no serious opponent in her Senate reelection race, campaign manager Solis Doyle burned through more than $30 million which incensed donors.

One pundit reported Solis exagerrated the amount of the Clinton's campaign ready money; Solis spread the word that Clinton’s Senate reelection fund-raising had gone exceptionally well so that $40-50 million would be left after Election Day to transfer to Hill's incipient presidential campaign. Turned out to be a wild exaggeration—and Solis Doyle must have known it. FEC disclosure filings revealed a paltry $10 million in cash on hand; far from underlining Hillary’s inevitability, it had the opposite effect by encouraging, rather than discouraging, potential challengers.

Hillary snipped, "This has been very helpful talking to myself," and hung up on the group.

Who would have ever thought...

Hillarylanders point to [Maggie Williams] as one of the candidate's closest confidantes, the person who "sees into Hillary's soul..."

She gazed into the pit yet did not turn to stone. Interesting.

It's good reading, but the bitch is still dangerous. The mother of satan and BJ have tight connections many super delegates via their secret FBI files.

Don't think for a minute that the klintoons will not blackmail, maim or kill anyone that stands in their way.

If she goes down in this primary she is done in politics and she can't comprehend or accept that thought.

When she did, Hillary gave a brief greeting making clear that there would be no navel-gazing

Omphaloscopy ping! (But alas, no navels worth gazing at in Hillaryland.)

The press, the Clintons, the blogosphere can try to blame her staff all day long. Truth is, the American people don’t want Hillary Clinton as President. It is that simple.

This sounds like the fuhrer’s bunker in Berlin in April 1945. The only difference is that Hitler was a much nicer person.

Oh the hunanity. . .

The Hindy Clinton disaster.

I see that the comparison to the Hindenburg is already failry common.

Those Clintonists who survive the crash have a gold mine each with a tell all book. Not likely to commit Arkancide either -- probably.

The major flaw in this article is the notion that New Hampshire was some kind of triumphant “come-back” victory. Leading up to Iowa, the Clintons had double-digit leads in all the NH polls. So the 2-point victory they had up there was a pyrric victory at best and a sign of things to come.

A good way to drive them over the edge would to point out that in the inner circle there are only two men, Wolfson and Penn. The rest are womyn. The only demographic she is winning is older white women. Coincidence or cause and effect?

>> “I’ve never seen a campaign where everyone feels so bad about themselves,” says one campaign staffer, echoing others.

Could it be that there’s a tiny, vestigial conscience rattling around in those swelled heads? Who’dve thunk it?

On another note if Obamma wins and picks HRC as his running mate he should stay out of Fort Marcy Park in VA, and in fact should never under any circumstances go outside.

Surprise, Surprise...Hillary’s campaign is completely devoid of any likeable fuzzballs. They are all conniving vicious fingernails-on-blackboard sourpusses and the next level of backups as per Harold Iches and Sid Vicious don’t exactly help the ‘I’m OK, you’re OK’ TV time cause. BTW—where is arrogant ANN from MA (Barney’s sister, Susan Estrich, Carville or Begala? They are certainly just as irritating but at least different faces from the Grunwald Brigade.

The only good thing that can come out of this ist that Patti Doyle, like many disgraced women, will grace the pages of Playboy sometime in the near future...

With all the intrigue and back-biting just in running this campaign, imagine what a Hillary Administration and White House would look like! Scary.

Once Hitlery loses, she is gone for good.

OTOH, I’d rather see Hitlery win for the general election then the Obomnation. McCain can beat either one but I’d like to see Hitlery creamed in a national election. Be gone Clinton’s!

.......over the course of her management career, Solis Doyle has developed a reputation for mucking around in the weeds, insisting upon signing off on even low-level decisions, such as where to hold a minor event and whether bagels or donuts should be served. (That's not a hypothetical.) She is brutal to staffers who try to circumvent her with a request, and she is not shy about reminding others of her position: When dispatched to Iowa headquarters in the final month, Solis Doyle demanded that in preparation for her arrival walls be erected around the section of the giant bullpen where she would be working..........

How depressing. The only thing that stands between Hillary and the nomination is Hussein Obama, and the only thing standing between Obama and the Presidency is McCain.

Solis Doyle is said to allow unaddressed issues to pile up, failing to do things like return calls to surrogates in need of direction or contributors in need of stroking.
