You guys really need to get a grip...
Edited on Sun Feb-24-08 05:43 PM by BlackVelvet04
Hillary never mentioned Obama. What she said was kind of like SNL last night that most everybody thought was funny except SHE never called anybody out.

You guys are coming across as pathetic.

1. Good luck...these people are not real Dem's. The harrassing posts are created by crazy people.
All of this Hillary Clinton hater crap is just a little too predictable.

3. Don't be disingenuous.
You know damn right well who she was referring to--don't play dumb.

7. Typical Hillary supporter.
Attack, attack, attack...then when someone defends, you back off, and act offended.

20. Blowback. Like knocking Howard Dean out of the running and sticking us with Kerry.
Which operative has the most success in demolishing Democrats? Robert Gibbs, Obama's communications director. I'd like to thank him for helping to destroy my candidate, he and Gephardt's machinations together.

Blowback will be the effect of people having time to compare notes and really dissect the Obama campaign against Hillary as they watch him go after McCain if he's the nominee. Then they'll realize what really happened and it will dawn on them that this guy Obama is really not a nice guy after all; in fact, he might be much, much worse than your average pol.

8. Not too many of us are really worried about it.
Why are you being so apologetic?

It feels better taking the high road. If Hillary wants to continue her antics, so be it.

18. Nah, most of us are just watching her crash and burn.
Some may be offended, but as an Obama supporter, I feel pretty confident. Actually even more so after her latest act.

Savor the moment. If you approve of these antics, then that's your call.

9. My only thought is that some are so emotionally invested in their guy
at this point, that any poke, no matter how humorous, prods them into hysteria.

19. The "drama queen" in this particular story is Hillary - hands down...
That was quite a performance ~ hand gestures, special voice effects and everything!

putting on a performance. I think you're projecting.

I'm sure she considered it a performance herself ~ it was political theatre.

41. Guess we weren't projecting (as you say) after all then...
I agree that it was funny on one level ~ but sad that she's desperate enough to resort to it.

12. So she is referring to a mythical imaginary friend?
I don't think that you could even get Mark Penn to buy that one -- but good luck!

15. She didn't refer to anyone.
But obviously something she said rang your chimes and made you think she was referring to Obama.

27. She didn't? Then what was the point, exactly?
If she wasn't referring to Barack Obama and his supporters, then she was building a straw man, is that what you're arguing?

Because if she was not taking a poke at Obama, what was the point of that emphatically sarcastic display? What, pray tell, was she talking about then?

34. I can't wait to see what today's Obama supporters will do when the Republicans attack
They can only wish it would be this mild.

Y'all need to grow some thick hide if Obama wins the nomination. You'll need it.

If an Obama supporter said that, you would accuse them of sexism.
