2. So can anyone tell me the rationale behind her attacking MoveOn
an organization she would want on her side if she won?

Can anyone tell me that this is a smart strategy?

If she is willing to alianate Democratic supporters at any cost and then not thinking ahead that she may need them is she really the leader we want?

6. Just like her comment to Bill back when he was president... "Screw Em'"
Just like all the latte liberals, boutique states, small states, red states, purple states and even the blue states that didn't vote for her... Screw Em.

It's clear that she doesn't give a shit about anyone but her and those that support her... And the later is always on thin ice.

9. People trying to dismiss this as a "radical group" are missing a critical point
While it's true the general public may not care much about MoveOn, they DO care about a growing resume of (real or imagined) "mis-truths" and contradictions from Hillary.

Taken individually even *I* (as an Obama supporter) don't think these things are that big of a deal (Sniper story, etc). The problem (for Hillary) is what happens when you view them collectively.

Besides, there IS a problem with ripping an organization that helps push and raise money for a ton of progressive cause.

11. Care to share some?
:popcorn:

For someone with such vengeful attitudes against anybody who doesn't go their way, it's sure tough to be in a business where you depend so much on support of others.

She probably didn't think that one through too much, although, I must say I am glad she exposes herself like this. If there something good about the kitchen-sink strategy, it's this.

12. Another self fired torpedo that is going to sink the Clinton Campaign if she stays for the long term
And it will blow right through that ship and will target her seat in congress.

Shame on you Hillary!!

13. Hillary is running defense for Karl Rove's future indictment -- by dividing future consensus
Methinks we are meant to react this way. Hillary's behavior has changed radically, but it doesn't add up.

This is a lot like the Strategy of Tension in Italy in the 1970s. We are being divided for a purpose. We are meant to react

The Democratic Party is being so effectively divided, completely unnecessarily, that the crimes of the Neocons will slip away unprosecuted by any future Congress, because consensus will be destroyed.

Hillary seems to be running defense -- a very sophisticated defense -- for Karl Rove.

15. What thinking indeed!
Yeah their supposed original reason for existence was to fight off the Bill Clinton Reich Wing attackers, that must have been all a ruse they set up for this present day when they could blind side her with their dirty tactic of ....endorsing her opponent! Those warmongers!
