I Wouldn't Have Believed It, If I Hadn't Seen It For Myself!!!

[tomm2thumbs]

I think the video speaks for itself....

(oh, and Barack Obama won...)

[StandingInLeftField]

1. It's like deja vu

all over again!

With apologies to Yogi Berra.

[bahrbearian]

2. Me, Me, Me....

[yuiyoshida]

3. Is this Arrogance?

Goman na hito ga kirada. (I hate arrogance)

[houston16revival]

4. Well she could have handled it more artfully, or

less arrogantly,

but males in competitive occupations say similar things

I don't think about failing

Don't consider losing for a minute

Just concentrate on the next game, the next day

Or even 'guaranteeing' a win in a playoff game

So it's not a shining moment, but to me it's not gotcha either

[Old Crow]

12. While I understand your point...

... there's a key difference between refusing to consider defeat in sports or a business venture, where it makes sense to view your success as solely a matter of your commitment, and running for office, where your fate is not in your hands, but the voters'. They get to decide who wins, not you.

For this reason, the only sensible answer to the kind of questions Katie Couric posed is along the lines of, "I'm doing everything in my power to get my message out, and I hope--I believe--that the American people will embrace that message." You know, the kind of response Bernie Sanders has routinely given to such questions.

The answers that Hillary Clinton gives here are all wrong. "Well, it will be me." No one gets the White House just because they want it really, really, really badly and view it as an inevitability.

13. Thanks for the lecture

I'm sure venting makes you feel better. I don't agree with you.

But I will support the Democratic Ticket, or whoever will defeat the
Republicans, in November.

[Old Crow]

14. That was no lecture.

It was an attempt to exchange ideas and discuss a point. If you can't discuss ideas, some of which you may disagree with, without getting your back up, perhaps a political message board isn't the best place for you.

[houston16revival]

16. You arrogance is as thick as HRC's

I'm a 16 year veteran of political boards, from Campaign 2000 onward

and I don't need interpretation of positions and events to cloud
my opinions

[Old Crow]

17. Honestly, I have no idea why you've gotten so testy about... what, exactly? (N/T)

[tomm2thumbs]

5. Seems to be full of herself

and then some

[pdsimdars]

24. I was thinking someting more like

Seems to be full of herself and also something else. (if you take my meaning)

[ChiciB1]

6. CLEARLY... AMAZING ARROGANCE! CLEARLY! WOW, So Now After Losing

back then it seems there will be NOTHING she won't do to win this time! And she may succeed, but because of this kind of stuff and there's reams and reams of more of this, too many will ALWAYS think she DIDN'T WIN! I think it will follow her ALWAYS, but CLEARLY she doesn't want respect, she just wants to win!

If it wasn't so wrong, it would truly be sad!

[RufusTFirefly]

7. Reminds of when Dubya was asked to cite a mistake he'd made

He couldn't think of any.

[Geronimoe]

8. Smarty pants

couldn't pass the DC bar exam. And her self-esteem meant she could send other families to war without doing her homework.

[senseandsensibility]

9. I don't see the problem, and I'm

a Bernie supporter. She did say she would support the eventual Dem nominee, and I'm sure she will when Bernie wins, too.

[Bubzer]

10. Extreme ego

[Iwillnevergiveup]

11. As much as I cringe

at Hillary's statements, Katie Couric is also pretty obnoxious.
Terrible interview all the way around.

[Cheese Sandwich]

15. o.m.g.

that was rich

[Thespian2]

18. When does confidence become arrogance?

When your ego controls your mental acuity...

The only election she won was in NY state...her senate job where she did very little to help the American people...

[Doitnow]

20. Maybe the reason she refused to debate Bernie in NY

is because she didn't have much of a record there while senator.

[whereisjustice]

19. She does like to talk about herself doesn't she? She's so awesome.

[zentrum]

21. Yup. The first thing

….she said about what she gets up and does every day is "I talk about myself".

[Nyan]

22. wow.

[Helen Borg]

23. There are some who believe that self-deception exists to better deceive others.

If you believe your own lies, you'll be more convincing when you tell them to others. The drawback is that often you miss the train that is about to hit you!

25. This Is Weak Tea

When a boxer goes into the ring he never considers the possibility that he might lose. Same with a NFL football team. A bank robber never thinks he'll be caught - else he wouldn't rob banks. She not showing arrogance here - she just doesn't want the prospect of her losing creep into the campaign. The poster is making a mountain out of a mole. BTW-GO BERNIE !!

[downeastdaniel]

26. Wait Just a minute, The Hill is a politician, why are you bringing up something like

REALITY.

[Plainsman1]

27. and AFTER Senator Obama won ...

he selected someone to be his Secretary of State ... hmmm. Seems like she provided a good answer to a rather dumb question, a question Katie Couric was so proud of that she couldn't let go of it. Who knows, Senator Sanders ... Secretary of Treasury ...
