CNBC "Hardball" host and Democratic Party insider Chris Matthews said Saturday that New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton can't wait to become president of ther United States.

"She's dyin' for it," Matthews told NBC's Tim Russert, on Russert's own weekend CNBC interview show.

RUSSERT: What about your fellow Goldwater groupie Hillary Clinton?

MATTHEWS: Ah, you know, you're a New Yorker, a New York stater - um - Hillary is dyin' for it. But she's also miserable right now because of all this patriotic stuff going on - she can't stand it.

Matthews recalled an incident where Mrs. Clinton seemed reluctant to pledge allegiance to the American flag.

"I remember Hillary - I'll tell you this about Hillary," Matthews told Russert. "She once said, 'I pledge allegiance to the America that can be.'

"What, are we on probabtion?,' Matthews exclaimed.

"When is she gonna lighten up about this sort of thing," the CNBC host added. "This is a great place instead of her constant complaining."

So glad to see you posted this! I thought of doing it myself. I saw the Matthews interview and it was very clear that he has little regard for the former first lady who can't stand patriotism! How pathetic!!!

[MistyCA]

Don't you just want to throw up!? And then Lisa Caputo comes out to say there is "no there there" to all the charges against the Clintons, including Monica Lewinsky??!! These people are sick, and if America continues to get flamboozled by them.......ARGHHHHHH! How can so many people be so stupid?!

[MistyCA]

Now you tell me, how many times have we all said that before?

[peabers]

The rapture will begin immediately after she is sworn in.

[RLK]

Does anybody doubt this?

[river rat]

That Hillary bitch is pure evil.....trust me, I know evil..
Evil was a friend of mine.

"She's dyin' for it"

Well, we can only hope...

[struwwelpeter]

She's been out drinking with Janet again.

[RLK]

Barring a horrible mistake of some kind, anybody who thinks Hillary can't make it into the White House is kidding themselves. She hasn't missed a step so far. The only thing that has save Bush's behind is this antiterrorist war.

[MistyCA]

You got that right! Pure evil!

[Bullish]

Nobody can smell up a pantsuit like Hillary!

New York voted for Hillary. And New York refused to give the death penalty to terroritsts who had killed many Americans. How ironic that the terrorists hit New York. The sad part is that so many innocent people, inclduing brave firemen and police officers, died.

At least Babara Olson's book THE FINAL DAYS has been selling well. It (along with observations such as those by Matthews) should help reduced support for the Clintons.

Well, that is 100% the reason why my stomach is still turning!
