Clinton's Southern strategy? Hillary fakes her accent for local crowd
Washington Examiner ^ | 10/19/2015 | Curt Mills

Posted on 10/19/2015 9:00:33 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Hillary Clinton has started faking a Southern drawl to speak to Southerners, just as she did during her last presidential run eight years ago.

The tactic drew chuckles, derision and not a little resentment when she tried it in 2007 and 2008. But she was back at it again in Alabama on Saturday, putting on a heavy twang to express her contempt for Republicans.

With Bernie Sanders narrowing her lead or overtaking her in early caucus and primary states of Iowa and New Hampshire, Clinton is hoping for a "Southern firewall," and her itinerary of upcoming events reveals a determinatiion to set it ablaze quickly. She wants to win in South Carolina and then in the many Southern states holding primaries on "Super Tuesday," where Sanders is polling much worse.

That could mean a lot more of these type of videos, capturing her speaking in a voice she did not learn during her childhood in Illinois and schooling in New England.

I agree with the theory she has had a massive stroke, or some other brain injury, and her judgement is becoming increasingly impaired.

“I agree with the theory she has had a massive stroke, or some other brain injury, and her judgement is becoming increasingly impaired.”

The great thing is that there is no particular point to pointing this out (to her supporters) who would not care in any event. HRC supporters are utterly the hardest of hard wired fools I have ever encountered. Meanwhile, anybody who simply wonders about her credibility should puke on the floor after this kind of stunt.

Hilliarly could make a dead baby float from live babies on prime time TV, and it would make no difference to her zombie voters. They are voting for infanticide, corruption, cronyism, marxism... and couldn't care less what this harpie has done or will do.

Orcs have a healthy skepticism of their superiors. It has to be something lower than orcs.
