MSNBC: HRC campaign claims that Richardson told them "Obama couldn't win"

[npincus]

Presumably, this is to change the subject after today's headline about Hillary stating "Obama can't win".

[jefferson_dem]

1. Very Rovian Deflection.

Can we please be done with ClintonInc and all their bullshit? Please!

[meow mix]

67. clintons are like 3rd graders running for school president.

he said it! she said it! no he said it times infinity!!

[Spider Jerusalem]

2. Which explains why Richardson endorsed Obama...

fucking idiocy from the Clinton camp.

[Pirate Smile]

22. Exactly. So Richardson endorses Obama and freaks the Clinton camp

out for what reason then? The Clinton camp has some basic problems with logic.

[IsItJustMe]

35. not logic, but honesty.

[Pirate Smile]

38. I think both. It is Clinton dissembling.

[karynnj]

41. here - they have both

unless they are projecting that Richardson wants an Obama loss so he can run again in 2012. This implies he knows neither would offer a VP slot.

[Teaser]

52. Ah, yes, the nuh-UH/nuh-HUH maneuver

very clever.

[slinkerwink]

3. I quite frankly don't believe anything from Clintons after the sniper story.

[rurallib]

4. No doubt Richardson will deny ever saying that

and I can't imagine he ever did.

[saltpoint]

5. Mrs. Clinton's polling gurus would certainly have told her otherwise,

no matter what Bill Richardson said or didn't say, and no matter what anyone else suggests.

There is no one in the United States better positioned to become its next president than Barack Obama.

Even the dullest, most delusional soul in the Clinton camp is well aware of this.

[dkf]

6. That is stupid. Why would Richardson endorse Obama if he thought he wouldn't win.

The Clinton's have jumped the shark.

[hedgehog]

29. Maybe Bill Clinton double dipped when he was watching the

Superbowl with Richardson?

[global1]

7. That Makes A Lot Of Sense (sarcasm) .......

Richardson endorses a candidate that he knows cannot win.

How stupid does the HRC campaign think we are?

[Window]

30. Dear Lord! They are imploding.

[dkf]

42. Yeah, just to poke the bear in the nose I guess.

Bill Richardson...Clinton baiter. Yeah, thats the kind of behavior we expect from diplomats.

[Connie_Corleone]

8. Are we supposed to believe the Clintons?

They have a terrible track record when it comes to telling the truth.

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

9. Is this a joke?

That doesn't make any sense.

[lisa58]

10. The image that comes to mind is...

Bill C and Bill R are watching the Superbowl. Bill C is going on and on about Hillary and how she can win and Obama can't and Bill R is half listening/half watching the game and agreeing enough to get Bill C to calm down, but probably never gave the "you're absolutely right - I'm with you" statement.

[kmsarvis]

60. HILLARIOUS AND.........

PROBABLY ACCURATE. :rofl: :rofl:

[hedgehog]

63. That image deserves to have its own post! As a matter of fact,

here's a photo of it happening:

[flor de jasmim]

11. I'm going to use an expression I have never used before:

UN-f-ing believable!!

[BeyondGeography]

12. And this benefits them to keep this spat going how exactly?

Bill Richardson would have been out of the news two weeks ago if they had just kept their mouths shut. Now all they do is remind people of a key endorsement and piss off more than a few Hispanics in the process.

Feels like blind, pathological rage more than anything else to me.

[my3boyz]

13. Damn they are pathetic! It's all good though. Let them keep

pissing off the super delegates. Who do you think the super delegates will believe between the Clintons and Bill Richardson? Despite the fact that their claim is ridiculous. Why would Bill Richardson risk his "friendship" with the Clintons and "friendship" with people around the Clintons (that he served with) if he believed Obama could not win. It absolutely does not make sense. I hope the Clintons pay for all the lying they have done during this campaign. I have to believe that good people will prevail. I hate that they feel the need to destroy anyone's characters if they don't go along with whatever the Clintons say.....I can only imagine the threats being directed at the Super Delegates.

[BigDDem]

14. Bill Richardson is a pathetic loser

I wouldn't believe him if he told me what time it was.

[saltpoint]

16. I would. And I'd ask him before I'd ask a lot of other folks.

[my3boyz]

17. HAHAHAHA...I think you meant to put Clinton on the end! LOL

[npincus]

19. was he a pathetic loser to you before his endorement?

[SeaLyons]

21. I agree

he is pathetic.

[easy_b94]

23. You see this is why Obama is wining

[BigDDem]

25. "Obama is wining"

Obama is "wining" because Richardson is a liar?

[easy_b94]

26. why the hate?????

[SoFlaJet]

34. Of COURSE not

you Clintoncrats can't say one good word about ANY democrats that don't support your queen. Pa-fucking-thetic excuses for democrats

[BigDDem]

62. "Pa-fucking-thetic excuses for democrats"

More "HOPE" and "CHANGE"!

Hey Gov, did you tell anyone you would endorse Hillary?
"Get over it!"

Ahhhhhhh, takes me back to 2nd grade.

:rofl:

[SoFlaJet]

70. hey I'm not running for anything

so what are the principals YOUR candidate lives by? LYING about stupid shit that is easily debunked. SLIMING a fellow democrat and playing the race card-be proud Clintoncrats. I can't wait till you are all gone from this board for good

[BigDDem]

71. Cant wait till I'm gone?

Hold your breath!

[Starbucks Anarchist]

47. Hillary would ask Mark Penn what time it was.

And he'd charge $5 million for the favor.

[saltpoint]

50. LOL!

[mohc]

15. So now we are using the tried and true

"I'm rubber you're glue..." strategy. Maybe Richardson should come out and say Bill Clinton said to him five times "to his face" that it would be fine with him if Richardson endorsed Obama.

[Hope And Change]

18. Let them bark...

[easy_b94]

20. This just grind my gears

[AspenRose]

24. LEAVE BILL RICHARDSON ALONE!!!!

[easy_b94]

27. You know .......never mind

[dave29]

68. bwahahaha

hahahaa

[BattyDem]

28. "Obama can't win ... so I'm going to endorse him!"

Yeah ... right. :eyes:

[EnviroBat]

31. This is just fucking pathetic already!

So blatantly Rovian a tactic. This really takes all.

Screw the Clinton puppets. We see who's really pulling the strings now, and we can't have this shit in our future.

[mtnsnake]

32. Unless MSNBC says exactly WHO said this, it is just more fucking HEARSAY from them

This is nothing but innuendo and you know it, but look at all the Obamawhiners taking it and running with it, even though it's pure rumor.

[SoFlaJet]

44. yea we know snake

you Hillbots prefer top get your news from more reputable outlets like Fox

[mtnsnake]

48. My remote control is programmed to skip over Fox

but nice try, Jet.

[NDambi]

53. You should recommend Hillary does the same...lol

She won't go on CNN or MSNBC for interviews, but she'll go on Faux News..

Pathetic

[Diego360]

54. Top Hillary Adviser: Richardson Privately Said Obama Is Unelectable

Top Hillary Adviser: Richardson Privately Said Obama Is Unelectable

[IsItJustMe]

33. Sorry, I would believe Bill Richardson over Hillary. Hillary has a track record for the whole world

to see. Of course, she will say anything to keep the spot light off of her.

[kevinmc]

36. HA HA HA ..... So F*cking predictable. The HRC cabal is like Tommy "The Liar" Flanagan....

Yeah...That's the ticket.













Paid for by

[my3boyz]

37. MSNBC also reported that CORZINE said that now he reserves the right

to change his vote if Obama wins the popular vote. He said he is not guaranteeing that that is the way he will go but wants to reserve that right.

[easy_b94]

40. hmmmmm I wonder

[dkf]

45. Ooh. Now Bill can go after Corzine.

:popcorn:

[karynnj]

46. She's in real trouble if Corzine said this

He was a very early endorser and even before that very close to the Clintons.

[shadowknows69]

39. She's lost her freaking mind

[ampad]

51. And she has lost this election

Are we suppose to believe the woman who claimed she ran under sniper fire or Richardson who endorsed Obama. She is a pathological liar. I only wish she would get better at it.

[Catherina]

43. I'm speechless n/t

[BlooInBloo]

49. Yes - It's everyone else! It isn't THEM! hahahaha! They're insane.

[Bigleaf]

55. I didn't have sexual relations with that woman, my wife. She was dodging sniper fire at the time.

I'm going to believe them over Richardson? Okay. Sure,

:eyes:

[mtnsnake]

58. You should post that at FR where there are even more republicans than there are here

I'm sure they'll get a kick out of it.

[ORDem]

56. Their treatment of Richardson looks so petty and childish. When are they going to get over it? n/t

:nopity:

[Mme. Defarge]

57. Maybe, in her sleep-deprived state,

she's confused about the date and thinks it's April 1st?

[IndyHatedByBothSides]

59. The problem with Richardson...

...from the Clinton perspective is not the endorsement but Richardson's character. The Governor of New Mexico is generally perceived to be highly loyal and highly honest. In other words, someone with impeccable character. His endorsement of Obama sends a strong message that "character matters" this campaign.

[book_worm]

61. The Clinton's have got to get over it. He endorsed the other guy--life goes on!

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

64. yes, this is all part of Richardson's plan to make sure the Democrats are defeated!!!!! I'm series!

[cooolandrew]

65. For several months Richardson said publically they are both great candidates and..

he told his story of Obama helping him in a debate, which he found gracious and clasy.

[DarienComp]

66. More evidence that they're going after the "low-information voters"?

Because, certainly, it's an insult to the intelligence of anyone who pays attention.

[dave29]

69. You don't stick with the Clintons, they will stick you.

This is the politics I'm ready to kick to the curb.
