133. are you REALLY calling Hillary's reaction to Ferraro
Let's deconstruct this hedged, equivocal definition of "strong" you've contrived to make excuses with, shall we:

"I don't agree" - Yeah, that's a strong rebuke. way to discipline that campaign member :eyes: love that take charge, clean house attitude :eyes:

"Regretable" - Racism is so so regretable :eyes: this is the strongest way to counter it indeed :eyes:

"supporters on both sides say things that veer off into the personal" - sure, just a personal quip (like 'you wear ugly ties') really :eyes:
and she just veered, fell asleep at the wheel so to speak :eyes: that's why she's still defending the comments, in HRC's name no less :eyes: that's why she still hasn't rejected that pathetic excuse for a resignation letter (i.e. blatant non-apology, bait more defamation) Ferraro wrote :eyes:

"we've all had to rein in members of our campaign from time to time" - like demanding Samantha Power's head on a stake within hours of the story breaking but then refusing to even hint at the possibility of merely scolding Feraro until it blows up as it has :eyes:

--------------------

or how about Maggie Williams' pathetic attempt to blame Obama and deny any wrongdoing whatsoever (Williams is Clinton's campaign manager, is she not? If so I defy you to explain how this OFFICIAL campaign release is a swift and strong response:

"Senator Obama’s campaign staff seems to have forgotten his pledge. We have not. And, we reject these false, personal and politically calculated attacks on the eve of a primary. This campaign should be about the leadership we need for a better future and these attacks serve only to divide the Democratic Party and the American people." :eyes:
"eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: :eyes: wait, not sure the point's across ---> :eyes:

False attack on HRC/GF????? yeah, strongresponse there :eyes:
Personal attack on HRC/GF????? yeah, strongresponse there :eyes:
Political attack on HRC/GF????? yeah, strongresponse there :eyes:
Calculated attack on HRC/GF????? yeah, strongresponse there :eyes:

so much eye rolling at your ridiculous attempt to wave off as a "strong" response the Clinton campaign's willful negligence in addresing this issue, that one could get an aneurysm.


Let's make sure we have you correctly ::: "strong, as it should have been" ...? some issues you should really let go of. Samantha Power was one for the entire Obama camp; Ferraro is one for HRC's. in my humble opinion :eyes:
