Hillary Clinton Ran a Bastardized Campaign and Now Demands That She Be Elevated to the Throne
Her so-called "leadership" of running her bastardized campaign has been a major failure and revelation into her poor management skills. WHAT HAS THIS WOMAN EVER MANAGED THAT HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL? WHAT, exactly, makes her "worthy" of the nomination despite the fact that she lost it? The fact she has ovaries? The fact she is married to Bill Clinton? What, exactly, makes her QUALIFIED? Obama is running CIRCLES around her in every relevant metric.

She can't be serious with this bull crap. She is basically demanding the party nominate a proven LOSER. Obama has already proven she is a loser by winning the most delegates, popular votes, states won, and raising the most money, despite the fact she is a "name" with the establishment behind her. She couldn't even rout Obama in Indiana coming off WEEKS of media Obama-Wright bashing and "bittergate" and SHE, yes SHE, got routed in NC by 14%. She has moved the goal posts so many times, changed the rules, and people are actually still giving her the time of day. That is what's got me confused. Why are people even still entertaining this crap? There are winners and there are losers. Hillary is the loser in this situation. The sooner she comes to grips with that, the better off the Democrats will be.

She does not care about you. She cares about HILLARY.

2. One could argue she ran Wal-Mart well...
If you count union-busting and fake "made in USA" campaigns to be "successful".

3. Yes, how could I forget her term on the corporate board of Wal-Mart
which, by the way, she got for being the wife of Bill Clinton, then governor of Arkansas. What has this woman done, ON HER OWN, that has been successful? My GOD.

6. BO can't manage the top of his desk; YOU KNOW you're in trouble.
The voters will speak and BO and his supporters MUST LISTEN. BO can NOT disenfranchise Florida and Michigan voters and expect to get away with it; BO cares ONLY about HIMSELF and doesn't care what Florida and Michigan voters want.

8. this has to be satire.
Edited on Sat May-10-08 05:39 AM by bowens43
Just in case it's not.

1. the voters have spoken, they chose Obama.
2. Hillary didn't give a flying fuck about the voters of Michigan or Florida until it became apparent that she was being rejected by the American people.
3. Obama can't manage the top of his desk? LOL! he came out of nowhere and easily defeated the candidate who most considered to be inevitable. He did that by running the most well organized and managed campaign in the history of our country.
4. In trouble? Obama is WINNING across the board.

10. Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, California, New York, Massachusetts............
WHO won? BO can't win the BIG STATES because THEY are much tougher to manipulate. HRC won Florida. Obama didn't bother to put his name on the ballot in Michigan while HRC certainly did. obama himself has admitted he can't manage the top of his desk; certainly managing the WH and the country far exceeds his capabilities. The ONLY satire is that BO thinks he is qualified to run for President.

13. The 'BO can't win Big States' argument is crumbling
Edited on Sat May-10-08 07:37 AM by Triana
A surveyUSA poll showed that if the California primary were held TODAY, Obama would win it. A LOT has changed in this race since theirs was held. May be the same with other states too.

As for Ohio, now that all the provisional and absentees are counted, it turned out NOT to be the double-digit win we were initially told it was.

And Indiana? HELLO! Hillary "won" Indiana by about the size of the "Operation Chaos" vote - what was that 1.1%?

Puhleeze with the "Obama can't win the Big states" meme.


It's crumbling right before our very eyes.

17. Announced yesterday if California did a do over Obama
wins it! So what do you think about that? Good thing HillBill showed her true colors in her dirty tricks campaign season rather than it be too late and she were sitting at shrubs old desk, reusing shrubs same ideas and leadership skills (skills? )

"The people never have been interesting to the Clintons, not in organized, confident form. They have been interesting as election props and poll numbers, and interesting as victims, atomized, whose pain could be felt, causes championed, and misery exploited. They are interesting to Bill on rope lines, as exemplars of popular adulation and individuals to be charmed or lectured. Hillary used to hate the rope lines, hate being touched, and in the 1992 campaign she used to make sure that big men were around her to keep the plebs at bay. That changed as her ambition grew and she discovered Purell instant hand santizer. Having purelled universal health care as a live issue for a generation, she's back at it, just where she wants to be, as an answer to a murmured prayer, among a populace mobilized for nothing but elections."

12. A black man named Barack Hussein Obama came out of nowhere
and won the hearts and minds of American voters.

That wasn't a fluke.

14. Um, it was the Hillary camp that just refused a plan to seat them
Not Obama. Also there's the annoying fact that even if we did take the unjust route of seating them as is, Hillary is still behind by insurmountable numbers. Next argument?

voted for the rules in 2006, and voted to impose sanctions on the two rogue states in 2007. Where've you been?
