Related: About this forumHillary Group working overtime
Has anyone else noticed that the Hillary group seems to be working hard to post as many smears as possible lately? I have noticed the two big ones they are promoting are the foreign donors, which happen to have had the money returned, and the fossil fuel lobby donations.
Also, the nasty way they respond to anyone that disagrees with them or points out facts is why I am glad to be blocked from their group. It is like walking into a Bill O'Reilly segment.
Seems like the Hillary group must be getting nervous. Just saying.

(15,480 posts)She is more to be pitied than censured,
She is more to be helped than despised.
She is only a lassie who ventured
On life`s stormy path, ill-advised;
Do not scorn her with words fierce and bitter
Do not laugh at her shame and downfall.
For a moment, just stop and consider
That a Clinton was the cause of it all.
Oh wait - no - that was Monica.
Good one

(3,226 posts)unfortunately the Cliton's have lived in a bubble for so long they have no real idea of how much most Americans are hurting. Hillary's biggest desire is braking the last glass ceiling and while we do need to finally have a woman Presedent it should be one that has not been bought off and packaged someone like Elisabeth Waren a true warrior for the working people of America

(20,166 posts)They've already alienated me to the point where I don't pay attention to them anymore. They've also done a splendid job of alienating me from their candidate.
Agreed. Actually it's more Hillary who is starting to alienate me from her self, but these bobble heads don't help.

(2,450 posts)The energy lobby is the elephant in their bubble and being tied to them, out in public, cannot possibly be politically beneficial. Not if you are a democrat. Last thing any dem needs, particularly one running for president, is to be associated with two brothers in particular.
Yesterday was too close for comfort so ... cue the freak out, damage control. They do not like sunshine, do they?
God forbid people know the truth, or even something close to the truth.

(14,255 posts)Just as ugly as 2008, maybe uglier. They don't have much to work with, while Hillary has a whole Rocky Mountain range of baggage. No matter how many times they drone she's been VETTED, they don't understand that the facts are still the facts, and the ugly ones are not going to get any prettier just because they are being repeated. A huge difference, these days, is that so many of us can look all the baggage up, and see for ourselves. This is why i supported Hillary in 2008, but cannot do so now. Her SOS stint did not make things better, but I do believe that, 20 years ago, we would not know anything near as much as can do now about what things actually happened. All online, can't be glossed over.
Looks like the era of Hillary just smiling and (stolen from Obama) brushing off her shoulder was very very short. IMO that was not what is wanted in a president, pretty much getting into an up close and personal snit with a Greenpeace volunteer, and then trying to smear Bernie in the same snit.
That incident reminded me of a skit from Larry Wilmore's show last summer.....at the time, I thought it was way too exaggerated
