So this is how Hillary intends to win; ROBOCALL! !
Hillary Clinton is doing Robocall to voters in New Jersey,

heres the transcript:


WOMAN: This is Ann calling on behalf of Hillary Clinton for President. Hillary Clinton has been a tireless fighter for seniors . Barack Obama has said when it comes to Social Security all options should be put on the table. That includes raising the retirement age and cutting benefits. He has even proposed raising Social Security taxes by a trillion dollars. Hillary Clinton stood up to Bush’s plan to privatize Social Security and is against raising the retirement age. When you go to the polls tomorrow cast your vote for the Democrat committed to protecting Social Security as we know it: Hillary Clinton.



Dirty politics continues, this is one way of turning voters away from her and her
campaign.

23. I'm not mistaken - I just don't have the patience to track down a JPG of one of Obama's fliers
Edited on Tue Feb-05-08 04:16 PM by Harvey Korman
Like his dishonest Harry & Louise-style attack on Clinton's health plan.

And it's already been pointed out that Obama does robocalls.

Of course, only one candidate is blowing smoke up everyone's ass about "changing politics as usual." :eyes:

26. Then you're lying
thats the lamest excuse i've heard for an attack,

Of course, only one candidate is blowing smoke up everyone's ass about "changing politics as usual."


you see how ignorant you sound, Changing Politics is not part of your vocabulary,

so your attack is warranted. What a shame.....God there are so many of you
fuckas! around.

31. Insulting me and requesting a hug are two
different thing, do not post unfounded accusation, you'll get called on it
everytime.

Oh! you can keep your hug.

5. Who is Ann? Coulter?
I wonder how many polls they did to decide that Ann was the most trustworthy name to use for that demographic.

7. Social security taxes need to be raised...
the cap needs to be removed to save it. Hillary just wants to let it languish?

Oh, well, I am not surprised.

10. Robocalls are annoying, but not necessarily "dity politics"
I've gotten robocalls from candidates that I like (Dean used them, for example), and those I don't like. However, I didn't like getting the calls from either one, although I have to confess I did like the one from Ann Richards years ago!

12. When used positively
its not, but when you use Robocall to distort another
candidates policy, then its dirty politics.

13. When they misrepresent your opponent's position?
Edited on Tue Feb-05-08 03:59 PM by sfexpat2000
Or, if you're me, they always are because they're an invasion of privacy.

/oops

29. Unfortunately, dirty tactics like this are par for the course
They just don't care about what lie they have to tell to squeeze out some late advantage.

Let's hope this is the end of this sorry chapter.

33. hijacking MoveOn, constant gross distortions of the Clinton Presidency...
Obama has been running a scorched earth campaign. They apparently do not give a damn about the Party. They have consistently taken the low road.

I wouldn't blame her if she did throw a few punches.
