I thought that when x42 went on MTV in 1992 that it represented a novelty, but I can now see that the Xlintons have both developed a new type of political campaign, using words only as tools to create images, or memes, that leave an impression even (or especially) after the words themselves are forgotten.
HRC, on her only visit to an NYC firehouse this month, gave a rambling speech which ended with "this (the WTC atrocity) should never happen to another child".
What will persist in long-term memory for the Oprah faithful is not the context of 9-11 which she and her husband did so much to create, and not that she wipes her ass with the burial shroud of 343 firemen, but that she's "for the children".
They are both amazingly dangerous, because of their mastery of modern mind-control techniques.
I do not at all share the confidence of many on this forum that she will lose in 2004. Not when many who vote for her have no idea why they do so.
I'm with you Jim...the fact is the "Red/Blue" election map results could easily look the same as in 2000...with Hillary a close winner. Any country that can elect Bill Clinton to two terms is capable of just about anything.
I think that this true of the majority of the voting public. Most people do not pay attention to politics on a daily or weekly bases out side what they see on TV.
They get their political news via sound bites. What the major news outlets want them to hear and think is all they ever know.
So it only natural that in New York the liberal capital of the US, that these people would vote for Hitlery and not have the foggiest idea why is no surprise.
Their political education is all sound bites no substance.
And when you factor in potential voter fraud........
