Hillary undecided on April 19th Debate BUT

[better tomorrow]

didn't she chastize Obama about debating? Doublespeak?

Thoughts on this......

[flor de jasmim]

1. "Meet me in Ohio!" Now if it were St. Louis.....

she could pretend otherwise. There is such a stark difference in the two candidacies--Obama rarely gives the impression that he is surprised by events. He has a long-term game plan, but does not appear to be "playing a game". Hillary not only did not have a game plan past Super Tuesday, but they don't seem to have had one since. If she's going to be ready on Day 1, and that day passes and she's not ready, then at least by Day 2 or 3 she ought to have a plan. Super Tuesday passed quite a while ago, and "throwing the kitchen sink" is not a game plan--it's a short-term strategy!

2. what her campaign said is

there are scheduling conflicts. Uh huh

[SunsetDreams]

3. Personally I think...

she is afraid she will be asked point blank about all these "discrepancies" on her 11,000 page 1st Lady Documents, Nafta, Bosnia, Northern Island, Schip, and anything else I am missing.

[better tomorrow]

4. or maybe the upcoming trial with Bill on April 25th

or....could her scheduling conflict maybe be that she will drop out before then?????

[SunsetDreams]

5. could be the trial...but

she has been caught in many lies, also forgot her tax records, her earmarks, Clinton Library Donors....ummm there is a long list.

I don't know if she will drop out or not before then.

FMLA...too many embellishments

6. Ms Clinton doesn't even have enough money to make her ad buys in PA

[Jawja]

9. No money for ads? No problem.

She will produce another "red phone" Rovian attack ad and because of it's ruthlessness, will get played over and over and over again FREE by CNN, as the gasbags discuss the theme of the ad.

This worked for her in Texas; don't see why it wouldn't work for her again. Same tactic worked for the Swift Boaters, as I recall. Do something outrageous and get free airtime from the GOP Corporate media to spin the garbage into gold.

[bobbert]

22. Why waste money producing another one?

Just replay it with some bomb noises

[Double T]

7. There is NOTHING left to debate. The decision comes down to...........

a person of SUBSTANCE and ACTION in HRC OR a person of Contradiction and Self Interest with obama.

8. I refer you to my new thread TT

13. Looks like VERY WEAK talking points to me.

Richardson is a traitor that contradicts his own talking points during his campaign; GIANT hypocrite. For Richardson the campaign has become All about race issues so his endorsement of obama was a natural. The IWR vote presentation was a misrepresentation of the facts. coulda, woulda, shoulda obama wasn't there for the REAL VOTE and his famous 'ANTI' speech was given before an ANTI-WAR crowd and WE all know obama loves to tell people whatever they want to hear. obama has made some goofs in WHO he engages as HIS advisers, specially spiritual. The Bosnia trip has become making a whole lot of ridiculous accusations over NOTHING; since when do minute details become the entire focus of a trip? obama has Rezko, Clinton has Hsu; so what? HRC was way ahead of ANYONE when she tried to initiate NATIONAL HEALTH CARE for ALL; and YOU would condemn her the same as a RWer for THAT? The Clinton's were talking about mccain's experience; obama has NO EXPERIENCE and has divided the Democratic Party insuring a rethug win and bush's third term in the WH; obama will produce NO hope and certainly NO change! Put your race card away, the Clinton's have a long track record of supporting people from ALL RACES.

[Drachasor]

10. There's plenty left to debate. Let them have a debate about something other than Health Care

Hillary keeps filling up all the debates with that topic, when I think the economy and a number of other issues are equally important.

[Double T]

12. HRC has rallies and the ECONOMY is ALL she talks about.

There is NO NEED to debate obama. HRC lays out her plans on each specific issue and obama chimes in with his 'me too' responses.

[Drachasor]

19. A rally is not a debate, and Hillary's insane moratorium plan for the mortgage industry....

...deserves scrutiny.

[susankh4]

27. True

and maybe she is tired of sharing her ideas with him? Only to have him turn around and say 'Me too" or "I thunk of that first."

[better tomorrow]

28. yeah, and today there is the Medicare/SS debate renewing....

[GumboYaYa]

11. Many of Hillary's supporters are unprincipled automotons who will parrot the campaign's

talking points with little thought and no regard for the truth. They were all over DU during the WI primary squawking about him being scared to debate.

It is very difficult to take anything Hillary and her supporters say seriously given their track record of spouting BS incessantly.

[VolcanoJen]

14. "Meet Me in Puerto Rico!!!"

Or something. :-)

[better tomorrow]

29. I thought Hillary got FOUR pinocchio's according to the news...

cute avatar

[Johnny__Motown]

15. she even ran TV ads about it in Wisconsin...... the double standard strikes again

[Bullet1987]

16. The Clinton's have a Hypocrisy Problem

[angie_love]

17. yeah shes a hypocrate...move along, nothing to see here..

[book_worm]

18. Hillary is a hypocrite and has proven this time and again in this campaign.

It's only good when it's good for her. The only states that matter are the ones which vote for her.

[MonkeyFunk]

20. You guys just make up issues, don't you?

She hasn't turned down the debate. Why not wait and see what happens before creating these stupid attacks?

[better tomorrow]

30. but she hasn't accepted it either.....

[scheming daemons]

31. Hillary was bashing Obama for not having debates after Super Tuesday....while debates were

still being negotiated.


Why is it that you Clinton supporters have no problem with a line of attack when it comes from Clinton, but you feign indignation when the EXACT same line of attack in the EXACT same circumstances comes from Obama?

[zulchzulu]

21. She's too sleep deprived to debate since she's by the phone at 3AM every night

Plus she's a girl. STOP picking on her!!!!

:sarcasm:

[bobbert]

23. She only debates in states where she can pick up more votes

She is in the lead and worried about losing it. Nothing to gain for her in PA by debating

[snooper2]

24. maybe shes doing it for the good of the country...

I don't know if I can go through another debate without having to :puke:




eom

[better tomorrow]

32. but it makes for great SNL fodder.....

[Az_lefty]

25. Another debate? Screw that, the last one was as boring as could be

their just repeating the same talking points.

[better tomorrow]

33. and they will always give her the first question....snicker snicker

[Araxen]

26. NO MORE DEBATES

I'm sick of them!
