Iowa Dems dinner takeaway; Hillary Is Woman, Hear Her in Big, Big Trouble
Cleveland Leader ^ | 07/18/2015 | Tim Russo

Posted on 07/18/2015 7:56:28 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Last night, all five Democrats running for president spoke at the Iowa Democratic Party’s Hall of Fame Dinner, broadcast on CSPAN. Hillary Clinton’s speech might as well have been titled, “I Am Woman.” That ain’t gonna work, sister.

Hillary’s entire speech was about how she’s a woman. Her mother was a woman. Her daughter is a woman. Her granddaughter will be a woman. Thus, vote for me, a woman. She even bragged she’s gonna keep talking about her bein’ a woman, “get used to it it’s a long campaign!” The brain dead brain trust around her has clearly decided she lost to Barack Obama in 2008 because he was a black man, so now, she has to run as a woman, to make history, because that’s the only reason Democrats voted for Barack over Hillary in 2008; to make the history of the first black president. Cookie cutter campaigning has never been so calculated, ice cold, and morally bankrupt.

Meanwhile, Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley threw their hands up and declared the game is rigged. Tada! They don’t even have to say Hillary’s name, she’s campaigning against herself at this point. Hillary cut and pasted a few mentions of hedge fund managers into her speech, which she never would do absent Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren, so it sounded like an afterthought, which of course to Hillary it is. Not one thing Hillary says is relevant as long as she ignores, and her opponents point to, the rigged game from which Hillary emerges with her hand out. She’s digging herself quite a deep hole, with Sanders and O’Malley happily watching.

O’Malley stuck a knife in too, calling for the 1933 Glass Steagall Act to be reinstated now, which one of Hillary’s ivory tower neoliberal economists recently said is not part of Hillary’s agenda. That right there is a deal breaker for most Democrats. Glass Steagall, the separation of banking from investment speculation, a foundational cornerstone of the New Deal, is universally accepted as Step One to unrig the game. Hillary doesn’t support it. Her husband repealed it. Why the hell elect her.

Hillary lives on another planet. Planet 1%, where her entire inner circle has never, not once, felt the suffocating tyranny of the rigged game, so hopelessly out of touch with reality, they even think Barack Obama ran as a black man trying to make history, which he did not. Just happened to be who he was. Barack never spoke of it unless absolutely forced to do so. Still doesn’t.

Hillary has always been this utterly inauthentic. She doesn’t seem to care, or know. Oblivious. Not one shred of self awareness. Does she even know how entitled she sounds when she brays she plans to be the first woman president, claiming somehow that’s the entire fulfillment of the American dream? She Is Woman, Hear Her Roar. If Americans want to make Hillary the first woman president, we will do so for reasons other than the history we might make.

Hillary’s message is never going to hit the target if it stays so shamelessly entitled, self-absorbed, and irrelevant to 21st century America. The polling in Iowa and New Hampshire is proving it.

Hey, Obama got elected by being black, Hillary figures her being a woman ought to be enough, it’d be historic, right?

Any word of how teen girls will have to register for Selective Service to secure college loans, a la 18-year old males, in the name of equality? And how those girls may be drafted into a war to fight for their country? I am guessing not.

I think what has them really panicked is that the RNC may not be able to deliver the Designated Loser, ¡Yeb!, as expected.

I totally concur. the other however-many-there-are candidates are irrelevant.

it’s a race between cruz and walker. they seem to respect each other, and I expect a great race.

And would be a better president. S/he believes in the Constitution. Better than Clinton for sure.

Diana,
I don’t want to come off as one the candidate bullies, but I have a question

I have heard 3 speeches, and 2 interviews with Walker since his announcement. To me the guy is sounding like a tape recorder. Is it his speaking style? Are his handlers pushing him too hard to stay on point.
Have you heard any of this? Or am I just spoiled by Cruz, who is a world class debater?

I am becoming disappointed with Walker, who up until now has been my 2nd choice.

Looks like the uniparty may have a couple of problems this time around.

Give him time. Did you start campaigning for Governor (George) Bush of Texas right off the bat? I sure didn’t!

Scott will be fine. He’ll hit his stride. We are a LONG way from Election Day.

I’m not worried; either Cruz or Walker works for me. Both, together would be AWESOME. Batman and Robin. :)

It should be titled "Hillary Spots the Umbrella Drink Bar."
