Every dollar Hillary spends now goes to helping Republicans. |
|
It amazes me that this year, the Democrats have raised so far probably near 10 times the amount of money Republicans have. The excitement and sense of anticipation for a Democratic president is/was at sky high levels. McCain is broke. Nobody is giving to the Republicans.
Every dollar that Hillary is spending in this campaign is no longer going to campaigning on her issues, her capacity to be commander in chief. Her money is now being spent in attempting to frame Obama as an angry black man, an inexperienced fool, and now an elitist.
It blows my mind that in this latest attack on bitterness, she's discouraging by her attacks a candid discussion of the issues so vital to this country. She's attacking honest assessment of our problems, she's attacking what it is to be a Democrat.
The Republicans have NOTHING, no money and no support, and she is spending millions in personal attacks on the eventual Democratic nominee for President of the United States of America.

1. Don't forget about the "John McCain has experience" ads she's made for them. |
|
Aiding and abetting indeed.

7. I haven't and I think a lot of voters won't either. |
|
She's running a 'general' campaign as to a primary campaign and trashing the eventual nominee. People can see this and I don't think they'll forget.
The damage she's doing to her and Bill's legacy will also stick, considering Bill as the big dog of the Democratic party, by extension, she's also done damage to the Democratic party in that sense.

3. Pretty much sums it up |
|
She is just staying in for 2 reasons now. Gather enough contributions from the middle class (whats left of it) to repay her savings account and inflicting enough damage on Obama to prep for her 2012 bid.

6. What happened to the Clintons indeed. |
|
Another thought on this. The Clintons are still a very big part of the Democratic party. I had really thought it would be absolutely fantastic to see Bill and Obama campaigning together. That would have been electric.
In tearing down Obama, they are both tearing down themselves, and tearing down in Bill Clinton probably the most identifiable and universally liked Democrat. This is another shot at the Democratic party. Sad.

8. It's unbelievable, isn't it. The Clintons are turning their name into sh*t. |
|
I was never a big Clinton fan, but I thought he was an OK president and Hillary would be too. Not any more.

10. The Big Dog was the face of the party. |
|
By having Bill wallow around in the mud for her campaign, how in the hell do they expect to have him help campaign for Obama during the general? I know the answer to that, but it's a pitty that they took the most recognizable and liked Democrat and destroyed him during this campaign as well.

9. Naturally. She wants another crack at it in 4 years instead of 8+ (= never). |
