Margaret Carlson: Hillary Stabbed Cuomo in the Back for Presidency
NewsMax was the first to report that Hillary Clinton was indeed running for the President.
Now, the idea of a Hillary Clinton candidacy has moved from laughter to accepted reality.
This past weekend, Margaret Carlson, co-host of CNNs Capital Gang, said on-air that there is no doubt that Hillary is running for the White House.
Carlson, also a TIME magazine columnist, is one of the most connected liberals in Washington.
During the CNN show, Carlson explained why Andrew Cuomo pulled out of the Democratic primary in New York, throwing the race to State Comptroller Carl McCall, an African American.
Carlson said that Hillarys sudden and unusual endorsement of McCall made Cuomos race untenable.
Why did Hillary make the unusual move of making an endorsement when she had previously promised to remain neutral?
Carlson said bluntly, "Hillary's running for president. They [the Clintons] wanted the black vote, and the Clintons just undermined [Cuomo].
Carlson said Hillarys endorsement proves the Clintons will stop at nothing to get back into the White House.
She said the Hillary endorsement demonstrated that "the Clintons will stab you in the back.
Carlson recalled that during the Monica scandal, "The Clintons got [Cuomos] support during impeachment. If one Cabinet secretary had gone off during the Monica thing, Clinton would have been in a lot of trouble. Andrew Cuomo stuck by him.
Cuomo had served as Clintons cabinet secretary at HUD.
Carlson complained, "They should have at least, the very least, remained neutral.
I hope it's right after she's nominated by the DemonRAT Party to run fer POTUS in 2008...big question for me is not if--but which--GOPer is gonna defeat her flabby arse!!

There're a lotta Medyuh folks with a lot to answer for in that regard...MUD
Actually, Hillary is worse because she sold her soul to the devil. Old BlowJob let him have it for free.
Hillary, being a post-menopausal lesbian, does not have the same carnal distractions. She is therefore much more dangerous than her rapist husband.
Made my day, thanks!
It's tough NOT to be negative when discussin' the DespoticDuo!!
Welcome to FR.com...I believe you'll come to find it indispensable.
FReegards...MUD
Yup...MUD
Can't disagree with much OldPro predicts, 2008's definitely when she'd go fer it, but I sincerely believe 9/11/01 made it absolutely impossible for anyone as blatantly Lib'ral as the HildaBeast to be elected to national office. Can you believe a majority of folks voting for her to become Commander-in-Chief?!
Therefore, "her one shot" is NO SHOT!!

If you didn't know anything else about x42, the fact that he named a whole cabinet of toadies says more than enough! Well, there was Les Aspen and Lloyd Bentsen, but one realized his own incompetence and the other cleared out while his reputation was still in one piece.
WRONG! Hillary is planning to run in 2004, despite her pledge to that idiot Dean.
Like people knew who Clinton was in 1996? Do not underestimate her.
Duh.
Carlson said Hillary's endorsement proves the Clintons will stop at nothing to get back into the White House.
Duh.
She said the Hillary endorsement demonstrated that "the Clintons will stab you in the back."
Duh.
But never mind. She'll be back on the plantation again soon after this momentary lapse. These liberals have degenerated into circular firing-squads. Soon they'll all fall on the ground together, gasping for their last breaths.

There can be no argument. This is well stated.
Hillary Clinton barely won against one of the worst-run campaigns in New York history, even though all the media were going all-out in her behalf and assiduously covering up all her gaffes. A good 40% of the voters hated her guts, but she still won because many New Yorkers are so liberal they would vote for Stalin in full regalia.
Also, many voters were suffering from the illusion that Hillary was well-connected to Washington, and would bring home plenty of bacon. They forgot that her husband would soon be leaving the White House.
In another six years, they will both be political has-beens. Her power mainly rested on her political alliance with her husband, who was in a good position to reward her friends and punish her enemies. Now there are too many ambitious Democrats around. They will never sit back and let bill continue to run the party by remote control when THEY see a chance to run it instead.
