Hillary is now from North Carolina?
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 01:35 PM by truebrit71
I was skipping through the channels last night and stumbled across a Hillary rally in NC somewhere and guess what I heard? That's right, her good ol' boy accent is back!!!

"Here in Ca'lina things are diffrunt...."

Made me want to projectile vomit...Look I know she's the panderers panderer, but FAKING an accent???

Who does she think she is? Madonna? Gwyneth Paltrow?

:puke:

1. Obama needs to attack her with all of that. "She will say or do anything to get votes"

12. Look, he's facing an opponent who has NO shame.
The only way to counteract spin is with a consistent, strong, simple message that is repeated constantly on national ads and interviews. HRC has done an excellent job with this (ex: "Hillary is winning the popular vote, if you count MI and FL", "Obama can't close the deal.") Obama needs to do the same.

2. Obama does the same thing. The only one who wasn't faking their accent was John Edwards.

13. The only way Obama loses NC is if he is caught with a live man or a dead woman
I heard an NC talk show host say this to some MSNBC talking head this morning. Can she neutralize the ole' southern accent when she goes back and forth between IN and NC?

So what's your point?

30. North Carolina, listen up. She's insulting your intelligence.
I know you already know this, but I wanted to emphasize it.

She's from every state. She has every accent. She will do **anything**.
