HELP HILLARY WITH AD
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 12:04 PM by JKaiser
Dear, ___

Thursday night in the debate, in one remarkable moment, we saw the kind of president Hillary is going to be -- the strong, compassionate, and brilliant woman who will make us proud as president.

Everyone in the upcoming primary states of Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont needs to see that moment. The campaign has put together a 60-second ad with the video, but we cannot run it without your immediate financial support. We need to raise $1.3 million in the next 24 hours to put this ad on the air.

Watch the ad and make a contribution to help us get it on the air. Go to HillaryClinton.com OR https://contribute.hillaryclinton.com/moment.html?sc=1622&utm_source=1622&utm_medium=e&ta=0

We're just 10 days away from a monumental day of voting, one that will decide the outcome of this remarkable contest between two history-making campaigns. The Obama campaign realizes the stakes and is putting it all on the line with a massive advertising campaign.

We have to give Hillary the resources she needs to make this a fair fight -- including running the ad based on her amazing moment from Thursday night's debate. We need to raise $1.3 million to get this ad on the air and to match the Obama campaign's ad spending in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont. We have to reach that goal in the next 24 hours.

Watch our new ad and contribute to help us get it on the air in Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

With your extraordinary help she will win. And knowing that you are there for her now, as you have been throughout this race, means more than you can possibly imagine.

We can do this together. Let's keep working.

Bill Clinton

3. Does the ad include the part she "xeroxed" from John Edwards?

18. ***what are you talking about? You are the one acting mean..*****
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 12:27 PM by JKaiser
I am just supporting my candidate... Most Obama fans on here act the way you do and whatever happens during the primaries I am not going to support Obama or anybody else because of people like you. I can't believe you can hate another democrat so much.. You as a fan represent Obama and the things you say have an impact on what people think about him. You are bad representation of him!

30. I guess hillary copies a lot of people...lol
the Obama campaign clearly went into panic mode when they heard the extraordinarily passionate and personal answer Senator Clinton gave at the end of the debate. Senator Clinton's response demonstrated why she’ll be the next President which is why the Obama campaign is now attacking her for using a common English phrase in that answer – “whatever happens, we’re going to be fine.”

Don’t think it’s common? Here are a few examples of just how widespread the phrase is:

Laura Bush: 'Whatever happens will be fine'
NBA Star Shaquille O'Neal: ‘We'll be fine, no matter what happens.’
Actress Lindsay Lohan: ‘No matter what happens, we're going to be fine.’
Former Redskin Dexter Manley: 'Whatever happens, I'm going to be fine.'
Former Redskin Gus Frerotte: 'I look forward to whatever happens. We're going to be fine.'
Notre Dame football player Tom Zbikowski: 'Whatever happens, we're going to be fine back there.'
Angels GM Bill Stoneman: 'Whatever happens, I'm going to be fine.'
Former Giant Christian Peter: 'And whatever happens, I'm going to be fine.'
Chicago Cub Larry Rothschild: 'I'm not worried about that. Whatever happens, I'm going to be fine.'
Diamondback Edgar Gonzalez: 'Whatever happens, I’ll be fine because I’m in the big leagues.'
Hockey player Richard Hamula: 'Whatever happens I'll be fine with but hopefully I can still stick around here.'
Leonard Hamm, interim commissioner for the Baltimore City Police Department: ‘Whatever happens, I’m going to be fine.’

24. Hillary doesn't "Xerox" anybody when it comes to actually doing something for people.
http://www.talkleft.com/story/2008/2/22/174547/976

Here is why I support her:
Because in 2001, about 10 weeks after W was inaugurated, my husband broke his neck. His injury changed our lives, of course, in 10 thousand ways. We had the good luck to be insured, but I have bad news for those of you who think that even good insurance will protect you from this kind of catastrophe. The out of pocket costs in the first year alone were up in the $80,000 range.

Fast forward a few years . . . Christopher Reeve's death created a hole where there had been an advocate. A few people from an online community got together to hold a rally in the upper senate park. Hillary--not running for anything, not looking for anything--showed up. She showed up again the following year, and the year after that, offering her support to a bunch of gimps in wheelchairs and their loved ones.

She talked with us. No press could be bothered with a pitiful little rally like ours; very few politicians had time for us, even though travel for quadriplegics is at best complicated and at worst dangerous. Hillary Cllinton earned my everlasting respect for caring enough to look people in chairs in the face and tell them she would fight for them.


YouTube video (18 minutes long) of Hillary and the Human Rights Campaign. She is a strong advocate of rights for all.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=bSPxGmePSiA

There's no way on God's green earth that Obama would ever stand up at an event hosted by the Human Rights Campaign and use his "brilliant" rhetoric to promote unequivocal equal rights for gays. Maybe one day we'll have a gay nominee for president, and that's when the world will understand that bigotry is truly dying in America.

And I hope the gay nominee is an atheist.

4. I liked Edwards' version better than Hillary's.
Maybe we should donate to him instead?

6. She was only good during 1 moment? The WHOLE debate?? Which minute was it?
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 11:55 AM by jmg257
When it was over and she said how honored she was to be next to Obama?


And why does Bill Clinton need MY money to run that 60 sec? To show her "vast experience" (read: 1 MINUTE of debate glory)?

No thanks, Bill. I have other plans with my $$.

All fat and no saddle...

Or the one where she lifts Bill's speech?

17. They shouldn't bother with Vermont.
She's going to lose in a landslide here. The latest polling has Obama at 60% and Clinton at 37%. And because of the arcane rules for delegate splitting, Barack will end up something like 17 to 20 of Vermont's 23 delegates, making it quite a nice little haul for him.
