John Aravosis: What will Republicans throw at Hillary in the fall?
Excellent write up on Hillary and her 'kitchen sink'...

So, the first question for Hillary come Wednesday, should she decide to continue risking our chances of winning in the fall even though the math says it's over, will be the question she's asking Obama today: What negatives will the Republicans throw against you in the fall? And as I've noted repeatedly, there are some negatives out there that most of you don't even know about - but everyone in Washington knows about them, in detail. That's because even Democrats who don't love Hillary, don't go there, for the good of the party. On Wednesday, the good of the party may dictate that we do.

1. They won't have to throw anything. She won't be on the ticket.

20. Aravosis is a Hillary hater like no other
I've been checking his website over the last several months and it is vicious.

3. Between her time in the White House and this campaign, I'm not worried.

6. Hmmmm, tax returns, undisclosed Clinton Foundation donors
the odd bimbo eruption, Bill up to his ears in favors owed for all that money he has been raking in overseas.

And, oh yeah, Obama is the guy who hasn't been fully vetted.

10. Dubai, Dubai, Dubai. You don't put tens of millions in an ex-prez's bank account for nothing.
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 05:59 PM by blm
Especially when that prez claims he didn't pursue all the outstanding matters of GHWBush's illegal operations throughout the 90s because he wanted him to have a 'peaceful retirement'....right?

14. Not to mention Bill's trip to Kazakhstan (sp?) with the big Canadian donor
All we have to remind ourselves is that Bill has spent a LOT of his post-presidency time in the company of the wolves otherwise known as the BFEE. I'll bet Poppy's taught him plenty ...

16. Her Arabic speaking, Saudi Arabian raised, practising Muslim "Traveling Chief of Staff"
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 06:02 PM by Divernan
Google Huma Abadin. HRC has been all too ready to stoke the fear of Muslims.

8. My theory: First they will destroy the "experience" claim.
With McCain on their ticket that will be very easy. Then they will make her look all flip-floopy on the war. They will bring up the Hillary-care, which many in the republican circle despise already, and call it commie-care b/c of the mandates ("Democrats want to punish you for not getting HC, even if you can't afford it." Etc etc.)
Then there is the politics of fear.

9. And I can't understand why
Democrats don't love hilary?!

"So, the first question for Hillary come Wednesday, should she decide to continue risking our chances of winning in the fall even though the math says it's over, will be the question she's asking Obama today: What negatives will the Republicans throw against you in the fall? And as I've noted repeatedly, there are some negatives out there that most of you don't even know about - but everyone in Washington knows about them, in detail. That's because even Democrats who don't love Hillary, don't go there, for the good of the party. On Wednesday, the good of the party may dictate that we do."

24. BO has disenchanted so many dems, there is no way he can
win a GE. He's made himself out to be a rebp with all his praising of Repbs.

11. Wow, wow, wow. I wonder what baggage he has.
I don't need to know. It just confirms what I already know.

The Obama campaign is playing above board. The Clinton campaign is playing dirty.

13. So, he's basically saying that Obama is going to be knocked out of the race.
Not bad.

18. Not even close. Not even close.
But he is warning that Hillary is about to get a taste of her own medicine.

19. She's had it all thrown at her since she hit the scene, hundreds of
TV hours, $300 million alone on health care.

She's still standing.

The guy did mention the fall and he does sound bitter. That's why I asked.

21. I suggest you re-read it.
1) He said there is alot of info about the Clintons that the public don't know. Not old stuff. New stuff.

2) He's saying it may come to light for the sake of the party. That sounds like he's talking about the pre-nomination period. Why would he wait until after Hillary's the nominee to unleash the flurry of saved up Clinton blemishes?

23. They won't be any nastier than BO and his followers. I have
never felt this bitter about a Dem. as I am about BO. He is deceptive, he outright lies, over and over, and his supporters have just been so horribly vicious.
