Can Hillary be stopped?

[Rockstone]

I feel like she has the money and name.

I haven't liked her as a politician, because I feel she doesn't truly represent herself honestly, just what strategists tell her...

Can Gore get it over her?

Come on, think Rocky - America loves for the underdog to come back and set justice straight.

My fear is that she winds the nomination and loses the election because too many people are too backwards to vote for a woman. People pretend to be PC, but behind closed curtains - you know what happens...

That said, if she were to win, I would support her. But I would prefer Gore.

[Botany]

1. Whatever

[Rockstone]

2. Whatever

[wyldwolf]

3. I think people like you are creating Hillary supporters

I've always said her winning would be such sweet revenge on the right. Now I'm feeling that way about the left.

[Rockstone]

5. what are people like me?

[wyldwolf]

31. "People like you" are the "can Hillary be stopped?" crowd.

[jobycom]

4. I hope not. nt

[Lex]

6. She's not getting the nomination.

Call me psychic, but that's the truth.

[Ellis Wyatt]

7. let me see

pro patriot act.
Pro iraq war.

will make many democrats not like her when it becomes evident where she really stands on things.

Pro tax increases
Pro single payer
She's Hillary

Will make many republicans not like her when it becomes evident where she really stands on things.

She's not going to win president because republicans hate her, hardcore
She's not going to win the nomination because there is no way she'd get elected and because even if the republicans didn't hate her, the democrats wouldn't prefer her as their choice.

It doesn't matter how much money she has, or what her name is, she's got no chance.

Can we all please stop?

[Rockstone]

9. yes those were some of the things that bothered me

why is she even a democrat? it's like advisors told her support iraq and support patriot act and she said "OK!"

I feel like we have no chance against money and media. THe right wants to run against her and she is being foisted on us big time...

[billbuckhead]

12. Didn't Hil have an extraordinarily rocky relationship with Bill's advisors?

Didn't she fire Dick Morris.

[sendero]

8. Maybe not by us.,

... but she'll be "stopped" by the voters if she gets the Dem nomination.

[cynatnite]

10. I think our energy is better spent stopping the boy king

rather than another Hillary bashing thread especially since we don't know if she's even going to run.

[Rockstone]

11. the boy king stopped himself

I'm talking about big money and big media

if those things could sell the boy king, then selling us a sure loser as a candidate is a distinct possibility.

In fact, count on the right to do everything possible to stick us with a losing candidate.

[cynatnite]

14. boy king=lame duck=more dangerous=needs stopped

I'm not going to worry about 2008 this early.

[bagimin]

13. No

[oasis]

15. No.

[MzNov]

16. Why should she be "stopped" ?? She has every right to run

for any office she choses. Hillary will either win the nomination or she won't. I do not support her for president at this time, but she has the right to run!

:mad:

[Rockstone]

17. How do you feel about Kerry running in 08?

[MzNov]

29. I really really like John Kerry. But I like Al Gore better !

:bounce:

Either that or it's NED LAMONT FOR PRESIDENT, baby!

:woohoo:

[mzmolly]

18. Yes

in the primary races, she can and will be "stopped." But, if she's the nominee, I'll support her.

[Rockstone]

19. yeah I would support her too, if she won the nomination

I just don't feel she merits the nomination at this point with what she has shown so far and I think others could have greater appeal to a wider spectrum of voters. So I guess the fear is that she'll win the nomination by machinery and not by merit. And I am paranoid that the right will be part of that machinery so they can pick a loser for us.

[mzmolly]

20. Her machinery has been rusted and marginalized via the Dean machine.

:hi:

[nevergiveup]

21. If Obama announces he

automatically throws a wrench into her campaign strategy. Gore could also but I don't think he will run. I would vote for any of them if nominated but my preference at this point would be Obama.

[B Calm]

33. Who is Obama? He hasn't proved anything, other than the media

love fest with the guy.. I'm sick of all this who's going to run. We have two years to clean this mess up!

[Captain Hilts]

22. Why 'stop' any candidate at this point. I like having a choice. nt

[dysfunctional press]

23. if not before then, she'll be stopped cold on November 04, 2008...

let's hope that it's LONG before then.

[zulchzulu]

24. We'll see how the primaries play out...

I don't think she'll get past Super Tuesday...just my opinion. She certainly can run if she wants. The voters will decide...not the MSM.

[Gloria]

25. My impulse to drop my Democratic registration and return to independent

status has been resisted, because if I stay registered as a Democrat, I can vote AGAINST Hillary in the primary!

I refuse to vote for the one person who can't seem to revise her view of the original Iraq vote in light of all we know about Bushco now. Another 10 soldiers died today. Screw it, I'm not going to be manipulated by the insiders. I feel like we've been had. The Lieberman shit, Clinton buddying with the Bushes, Hillary triangulating all over the place. I want FIGHTING Dems, not triangulating Dems. And that includes the "triangulator in training", Obama.

I want substance. There are grownups in the party, but why would they want to step into the sewer? (Feingold, Clark, etc.)

[Rockstone]

26. a lot of good thoughts in there, sister...

the fighting part is what I like about Dean and Webb.

progressiveness and conscience is what I like about Gore.

[Gloria]

27. Yes, Dean, Webb, Gore...they've all broken free to some extent and

are dealing with the public with more honestly than most of the "leaders" who are working for themselves, not the country. They are "real." It's all about ego and power at this point for many in office. "Real" went out the window a long time ago for most of them.

[Warren DeMontague]

28. I think she has a very SLIM chance of winning the nomination.

All this blather about the "inevitability" of a HRC nomination is just that- noise.

The same people floating it as "conventional wisdom" also thought that our nominee in 2004 had to be someone who voted FOR the Iraq War. :eyes: Turned out that piece of poop was the biggest albatross around the guy's neck.

Don't listen to those waterheads... methinks they got in in their minds that it would be cool to have Hillary a while back (or maybe they really feel that we have to make stopping flag burning our number one priority :eyes:) and they can't adapt to reality. Rush Limbaugh's fantasies notwithstanding, Hillary is NOT going to be the nominee IMHO.

Frankly, I think if Gore does get in, it's his for the taking.

[pa28]

30. Dean had it wrapped up for a year before the Iowa caucus derailed him.

We'll let the campaign unfold and allow Democrats to decide. They'll make the right choice.

[xultar]

32. So you don't want a woman to run. How do you feel about a black man?

Don't feed the racist sexist machine.

PLEASE.

[andykef]

34. GORE '08

I think all the talk about Hillary means that Gore MUST make a decision sooner rather than later. Otherwise this might mean that Rodham-Clinton gets nominated and Democrats go down to defeat in '08 or that Edwards or Clark get the nod as the anti-Clinton candidate and both of these candidates will also be doomed in 2008.

I think the question is Can Gore be started? rather than Can Hillary be stopped. IMO.
