George Bush said today that Hillary is unelectable.
Edited on Tue Nov-20-07 07:42 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
Wake the hell up people... she can't win! George W. Bush has never been wrong!

"President Bush and First Lady Laura Bush said Tuesday that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's experience as first lady has prepared her to handle the "pressure" of a presidential race and the White House, and the president said he believes Clinton will win the Democratic nomination but lose the presidency next year. "

6. and he might be right too.
George knows the machines are rigged .... the only problem is w/ a
landslide for Hillary (or any dem) "they" could not steal it. We need to
win by > 12 points to overcome the "machine fudge factor."

10. Poor George ...
... still counting on the math that Rove convinced him was a done deal in November 2006.

And if I might add: Many of us stated unequivocally in the 2000 election, as well as the 2004 election, that G.W. Bush would never be legitimately elected by the people of the United States.

And guess what? We were right - twice!

11. Is this a forecast
of the GOP saying outloud that they're going to steal the election again? If it is, I think we'd better see to it we have an ethical election when the time comes. They only to need to rig about 8 states (or even less) in order to guarantee chaos and a reign of terror.

If we take this at face value, it becomes just another soundbyte from the whackos on the right.

12. Well, I haven't been prepared to believe it yet, but if George says so
Then it's a dead LOCK that Hillary Clinton will be our next President.

14. Well of course he is going to predict that the Dem nominee is going to lose....
If he didn't, that would be like one of us saying that the Republicans have a chance to win in 08! And I know what would happen to anyone here if they ventured to say that the Republicans could win in 08. Hell, fur would fly. Bush was just trying to avoid the food fight that would happen if he were a Democrat on DU saying that the other party could conceivably win. He's basically into group-think too.

16. How the hell would * know about the "pressure"? His daddy's connections got
him into office, and after that, it's been Unka Dick's pResidency.

17. He had the same smirk...
that he had on Election Night 2000 when the Media called Florida for Gore.
The video feed was from wherever George was watching the returns with his father.
When the Meida called Florida for Gore, Bush smirked and said that the Florida results were wrong.
He KNEW!!!
He had the same smirk yesterday when he said Hillary would lose the GE in 2008.


Hillary nomination = the MOST risk for the least democratic gain.

19. Bush can TRY to get me to switch my vote to Sen. Clinton.
He can try appealing to basic oppositional tendencies, but even that will fail. :D

20. This is the same guy who said mission accomplished, and no
problems with the flood control in New Orleans, and there are WMDs in Iraq, and there is a tie between the 9/11 attacks and Hussein, and etc. etc.

:eyes:

21. What a 180. For the past year, Shrub's been saying SHE IS electable!!
Shrub has been pushing the "Hillary inevitable" crap all year long. What's with this change??
And how the f*** would Shrub be able to predict who our nominee will be???
