Not Flamebait (puh-leese!) Who runs Hillaryis44.com?
I don't want to start some dumb thing about people's theories or suspicions.

I am just curious whether it was ever factually resolved who backs or runs the site.

(Google is not my friend on this one -- I've tried.)

Thanks

3. Thanks for the effort. Saddly, "Domains by Proxy" is for folks who wish to be anonymous
hence the mystery.

2. Hi Kurt_and_Hunter...
I'll try to find out for you using a WHO IS site...

It may take a little while. Please be patient.

Respectfully,

Al

9. Yes. The owners and administrators of domain names used to be able to be found with WHO IS engines.
I've been a software analyst and computer engineer since the mid 1990s. Things have changed quite a bit and it looks as if finding site ownership is no longer possible.

Why do you want this information?

Respectfully,

Al

15. Hi Al. It's real sleazoid Obama bashing pretending to be a Hillary site. There was some
buzz a while back about it, but nobody ever tracked it down, so I was curious if I had missed an expose along the line.

It's clever. Really sets Obama folks and Clinton folks at each others throats.

8. I heard that some news outlets tried to track it down and this is what they say:
they said it is registered to someone in DC. The name is kept from being discovered and you cannot find out who it is.
they feel it is insiders because of some of the stuff they write is very inside the beltway.
the guess is that if it is not from the campaign direct, it is someone associated with the campaign.

11. Lots of Republicans in D.C.
The giveaway is that they refuse to criticize Republicans on that website.

Show me someone from Hillaryis44, and I'll show you a Freeper.

14. My wife, Radio_Lady, could try to contact them through their webmaster.
She is a recognized member of the Portland, Oregon press. She brought it up on her computer and said, "It's pretty! It's pink!"

They also have www.hillaryis44.ORG That must be a non-profit.

Here's what I found in the ABOUT link:

ABOUT

We started this website because we believe Senator Hillary Clinton will be an excellent 44th President of the United States. Senator Hillary Clinton will be the Democratic Party’s nominee for President because she is not only the best candidate running, but she is also the one candidate that will without doubt beat the Republicans and restore sanity to the White House.

For the next year, we will bring you news and commentary of the 2008 race for president. Our focus will be on Senator Clinton and the Democrats. Once Senator Clinton wins the nomination we will turn our focus to the Republican nominee.

Although we feel that Senator Clinton will be the nominee (we thought that way back in March 2006) the race, as always in a democracy, will be an exciting one. We will have lots to say especially with regards to the media and blog coverage of the campaign. We will keep an especially sharp eye on “progressives” or Democrats who repeat Republican talking points to undermine Hillary or any of our candidates.

At the left hand side of our website we have posted permanent commentary pages on certain issues such as Iraq which we will continue to update.

Feel free to comment on our posts and to send us any tips, which we will keep confidential.

16. investigative reporters have tried. It's well hidden.
Edited on Thu Oct-04-07 09:35 PM by Kurt_and_Hunter
They are paying for anonimity.

If you found out you could publish a piece in at least Slate, but it's a dead end.

It seems like a RW disruption project.

10. It's a Republican clearinghouse for oppo research.
They test fire memes like Rezko etc to see which can gain traction amongst Democratic and independent voters.

13. Makes sense. I put nothing past Hillary, but it's so ham-handed and crude that
it comes off as a perfect "rat fuck" where you slime two people for the price of one.

Next question, why the fuck can people promote it here?
