All morning these three guys said all nice things about Hillary now everybody knows these three are republicans. i remember when Kerry was at the democratic Convention all these three said good things about Kerry, but as soon as Bush was officially they nominee for reelection they started bashing Kerry on a regular basis.

place where we liberals butt heads with each other and with others in the Democratic Party - and this time will be no different. I'll support whoever survives the process.

However, I still think it funny the way the right is wrong when they don't show so much hate of Hillary that it takes away a bit from some on the left saying she's divisive, but the right is correct when they spew hate all over the screen at the mention of her name.

4. All the media whores are swooning like mad over Hillary and Obama
And this after the panicky hatchet jobs performed on both seasoned statesmen Gore and Kerry? Frankly, it makes me very, very nervous.

5. No. These guys supposedly represent "small town" type people

and to them, Hillary is actually more of a straight shooter than the other guys are. Rural America has no use for politicians who they think only cater to the highly urbanized areas. Clinton, to these guys, is more centrist, and therefore more appealing to rural values. I think that's where they're coming from on this, anyhow.

7. Or Hillary has just been anointed
as next president by the corporate media owners who call the shots. Murdoch has supported her quite openly.

11. On that he could be correct, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that part out.
The rest of Matthews' analysis this morning bordered on the absurd.

12. Hillary is way too reactionary in this political climate.
That is why the socialpathic right wants her to run - divide and conquer.

The United States needs to find a way to get the certifiable loonies permanently out of our government and then join most of the rest of the world in finding peaceable ways to get along and survive. If we can demonize cigarettes, why can't we demonize war?
People and their needs need to be made more important than wealth.
