I’ve never understood this fascination about Hillary Clinton, or why she is somehow the smartest woman in the world, or why she is the Democrats great hope, either as Obama’s VP running mate this year, or as pres. nominee in 2016.
When she ran in the 2008 primaries, it was a very depressing and disappointing campaign, even from the point of view of Democrats. Polls at the time showed she had some of the highest negatives ever recorded for a major party presidential candidate. Many polls suggested that she could not win the general election if she got the nomination.
Based on the Clintons history and her negatives, why does anyone think that Hillary riding in on a white horse will somehow save Obama, or win the presidency in 2016? I just don’t get the reasoning.
Female vote, I guess, is the calculation, based on the assumption that it would go for the likes of Carol Doda motivated by a historical first.
I guess if you are looking for a hero...anyone will do.
She’s the smartest woman in the world who couldn’t pass the DC law boards.
Fascination with her? I wonder if it’s that the feminists, and there are a lot of them, including many housewives, and lackey husbands, idolize her because she has gonads and uses themd, at least metaphorically.
They don’t of their country or the Constituion. They don’t think at all.
It’s all emotion. stupid, illogical, aimless emotion.
And passion (anger).
And they will sell out their country and yours for the right to kill babies, and not just their own.
Just a thought.
“why does anyone think that Hillary riding in on a white horse will somehow save Obama, or win the presidency in 2016? I just don’t get the reasoning.”
It is hard for reasonable people to understand that but consider:
1. An electorate dumb enough to elect 0bama is certainy dumb enough to vote for Hillary
2. Desparation
She is all they have.
Name the DNC presidential bench.
We are in the midst of one great social experiment with our first black President.
Do we really need another, with the first female President?
I don’t think so.
