A Campaign Mystery Solved: Hillaryis44

I wrote in December about a mysterious pro-Clinton, anti-Obama website called HillaryIs44, a site that floated sharply negative information about Obama long before the word "Rezko" passed the lips of Clinton and her campaign, and that has been the subject of many months of speculation among reporters, bloggers, and campaign staffers.

Now, two sources have identified the site's creator: A New York political activist named Alex Rodriguez, pictured above.

I called Rodriguez yesterday.

"How do you know?" he asked.

I made the case to him that he might as well tell me his story.

He said he'd think about it, and hasn't called back.

Rodriguez has no evident connection to the Clinton campaign.

1. LOL

"I'd asked her if she knew "Alex." She then made a joke about the Yankee third baseman, also named Alex Rodriguez. But I hadn't supplied the full name of subject of my story, so I asked how she knew his last name.

"I don't know him. I just heard his name somewhere," she said, denying again any role in the site. "I haven't sent this person anything, ever."

[blm]

6. Want to bet that he was working in Ohio for NOT the same reasons Arnebeck

was in 2005?

Probably more like the way Carville was working for Dems on election night....

4. Too bad that Hillaryis44.org is already in violation of many ICANN

rules in place.. Domains by proxy? A very stupid idea that GoDaddy is being sued for because the ICANN mandates that information has to be accurate, and hiding it is not accurate. Lots of domains were nuked because of inaccuracies in their information and that includes false address, phone numbers or email addresses that does not exist.

I've spoken to Bluehost.com and I'm looking into going upstream and NUKING them because they're ignoring their own AUP - many racist and libellous information against a nominee - they told me to take it to court. I'm not willing to spend my money on a very stupid and soon to be nonexistent echo chamber with a dead host (or at least abandoned after Hillary drops out tomorrow or Wednesday). I have connections to a lot of people who does this for a living, and I'm looking into it.

7. Typical O-Bot tactic; if you can't argue against it, silence it

Nixon would be proud of you clowns. Seriously.

12. Thankfully Nixon was before I was born.

However, you need to know this - I've already provided countless of facts supporting my statements, and even posted Rezko vs Clinton's Donor thread which has been recommended for future reading. It's in my journal if you bother to care.

However, many of the Hillary supporters have NOTHING but shit-flinging and racist behavior to back up their 'claims' and have failed to provide proof or counter to any of my arguments that I have provided. So tomorrow will be Hillary's last day as a full-fledged campaign and will have to screech to halt on Wednesday when the funding dries up. I'm sure she is heavily into debt for February and March.

8. I'm sorry for you. That site is complete trash.

From only presenting polls in which Hillary is leading to calling on members to spam RW message boards with negative information about Obama. It is filth that all Democrats (and especially Clinton supporters) should be ashamed of.

[Tarc]

13. Coming fron the likes of you, I'll take that assessment with a grain of salt

Perhaps even the entire salt shaker.

[Barack_America]

16. "Likes of you"...meaning any Obama supporter?

Unfortunately many Clinton supporters have also denounced (and rejected!) that site.

3. Not solved, just an accusation. Ben Smith is no Sherlock Holmes.

According to the DUbamas it's run by Taylor Marsh.

[NYCGirl]

14. No, she's just a contributor.

:evilgrin:

[Kittycat]

5. Hillaryis44 is a gutter site for those entrenched in gutter politics.

no more, no less. It, along with their preferred form of politicking will soon be obsolete. Like a bunch of DINOs.

[meow mix]

9. "I hadn't supplied the full name of subject of my story, so I asked how she knew his last name"

sounds like she knew him to me..

[thevoiceofreason]

10. So Hillary's shill is a Perot supporter??!! WOW!

[Yael]

15. A Perot guy trying to sabotage Obama? Who would have ever thought that one!

He must laugh his ass off every morning logging into the pepto bismol site and watching HRC supporters foaming at the mouth over Obama.

:rofl:

[bunnies]

17. Yep.

If this story is true, it would seem that the joke is on them. Go figure.

[Yael]

19. I know it is wrong on so many layers,

but I find this hilarious.

:D
