Will the MSM cover Hillary's arrogance towards Massachusetts tommorow?
Or will they simply ignore it and pretend like it didn't happen. :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

ABOARD THE CLINTON PRESS PLANE – Before taking off to New York late Sunday night, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton hailed the New York football Giants and made a few quips about Senator Barack Obama and the people of Massachusetts, who vote on Feb. 5.

Told that Mr. Obama was supporting the Patriots – the home team of his supporters Edward M. Kennedy, John Kerry, and Gov. Deval Patrick of Massachusetts, Mrs. Clinton grinned and said, “Hm, I wonder why.”

And reminded that she had two campaign stops in Massachusetts on Monday, she said: “They can redeem themselves on Tuesday – they can vote for a winner.”

Otherwise she took the Giants’ victory as tidings of things to come.

“Well, I think this is a real omen,” she said.

Asked how she was feeling, given that her voice has grown hoarse, she said, “I feel ok, my voice has gone AWOL on me.”



Redeem themselves? Are you kidding me, Hill? How can one be so arrogant? That inevitable meme is getting to her head. :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

1. People with such delicate constitutions
shouldn't follow politics. Perhaps you could take up knitting?

4. How can she be so arrogant?
:puke: :puke:

If they don't vote for her, does that mean they don't redeem themselves? :puke: :puke:

14. That would almost be meaningful
if I'd ever made any sort of fuss about the so-called snub.

But of course, I didn't. I even said I wouldn't characterize it as a snub. I said the whole thing was overblown.

Perhaps you're thinking of someone else?

15. Yes, we are thinking of somebody else.

99% of Hillary's supporters.

You are apparently the 1% who didn't make a fuss. :)

We are most certainly not the same person. :)

20. I'm not talking about you personally
But you're on here as regularly as I am and you surely noticed the overblown outrage and dudgeon of Clinton supporters over the Handshake Snub That Wasn't.

However, calling you a hypocrite was out of line. I apologize.

3. This is what passes for serious discourse on politics???
If this outrages you that much, perhaps you ought to stop following politics all together because the fall campaign season will make you really upset.

7. Hope she does not get her voice back
Then she can have her running mate (Bill) go do her lame Hallmark show for her tomorrow.

11. she was kidding
The people of Massachussetts are, I'm guessing, more intelligent than the OPer, and so will see her remarks as a light-hearted joke.

:silly:

22. Obama supporters have been maintaining that she's been behind all this time.
Obama has more pledged delegates, etc.

So if anyone is the underdog, yes, indeed it is Hillary. She gets the worst press coverage of any candidate, while Obama gets a free pass.

23. You're joking right?
Hillary has the combined delegate lead. She has been annointed as inevitable ever since she entered the race.

Hillary gets plenty of free press coverage.
