Tense relations " 'Serious tensions' exist between U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's Washington-based presidential campaign staff and those working on her campaign in New York," the New York Post's Fredric U. Dicker writes, citing "Democratic insiders." " 'Her New York crew is fighting . . . with her D.C. folks, and it's worse than the normal stuff, real serious tensions,' said a Democratic Party source. 'The New York folks are the ones who got her elected to begin with. They've done it and know what to do. The D.C. folks are the "geniuses" who do "national elections" and think everyone here is a rube.' " 'The Washington types hold meeting after meeting and then send a group of fatheaded 27-year-olds to do events in New York, and they wind up fighting with her staff here,' continued the source, who is in day-to-day contact with party activities. "The source said the tensions exploded at Clinton's endorsement event with [New York] Gov. [Eliot] Spitzer and other high-ranking Democrats earlier in the month at the [state] Capitol. 'The New York locals were incensed that so many of these outsider kids were sent in from Washington, and they were trying to run the event, and they couldn't even make a contribution to it.' "Meanwhile, the source said many New York Democrats believe Clinton 'isn't doing so well out there, that she may not have what it takes to become president.' " 'When you're out talking to real Democrats in the field, you hear them say, "She has no pulse. Just polls." Did you see how she voted on the Iraq resolution? ... She waited to see how [Barack] Obama voted before she did. So calculated even on such a core issue,' the source said."

No surprise she had to call on Der Schlick—he’s the only reason any of us has heard of her.

True. I've posted several times that, if Giuliani had defeated her for the Senate in 2000, she would be nothing more than a footnote in history beside Geraldine Ferraro.

Should Hillary be given amnesty for stealing FBI files?

[Jacquerie]

Another reason that admittedly ranks far below her leftist totalitarian urges but is important nonetheless, is that she has zero executive experience. The woman hasn’t run anything, not even a convenience store. The Presidency is not an entry level CEO position.

-wouldn’t it just be a HOOT of Bush granted her amnesty for something she DID when bj was president? LOL, let her explain THAT away............

[Rollee]

Don’t forget the troubles Chavez is having in Venezuela. It’s a trifecta!
