1. Why would he do that? You mean for sounding like a Vice President?
http://action.credomobile.com/sirota/2008/03/the_clintonlieberman_connectio.html

Clinton was actually even more brazen than Lieberman. Not only did she lie about her record, she actually went on the offensive attacking Obama over the very trade deal she has long championed, "rais doubts about whether he was committed to reworking NAFTA," as the AP noted. To use the Lieberman-Lamont analogy, that's would be like Lieberman not only pretending to be against the war, but actually attacking Lamont for not opposing the war more strongly. Even Lieberman wasn't cravenly dishonest enough to do that - but Clinton was.

Hillary Clinton no longer a Dem, it's time she learned the Zell Miller rule.

24. Hillary is in it to win it - and win it she will - for all of us.
Hill yes! ~ Yes she can! ~ Yes we will! ~
Registered Democrats support the lovely lady!
Outside undue influence is trying to pick a glass jawed empty suit!

35. That will never happen. If he somehow steals the nomination from Hilly, McCain
will crush Obama by more than 65% in the GE.

36. McCain can't crush a bunch of losers in the Republican Party. He's no match for Obama.
Sorry to disappoint you!

8. If you mouse over the links, they should show up on the bottom of
your browser. I'm using Firefox, and it works for me. :)

Most ProSense links tend to be vanity links.
I've followed enough of them to know that a) nearly 80% of them link to other ProSense posts, and b) most of the rest are insubstantial, irrelevant, and/or opinion pieces.

I've had to click through a series of five or six links to other vanity posts just to get to a source that doesn't even have anything to do with the original charge -- charges which tend toward the extreme.

But most people just see the underlined blue text and think, "gosh, there's a link, it must mean there is some Real Truth there".

I will give this to him/her -- s/he puts a lot of effort into it. It will be good to have that kind of commitment working to win the White House this fall.

--p!

12. She should be fired over one supposed "off the record" comment being reported by one source...
and now being parotted by sludge and other trouble-making outlets?

Nah.

30. OMG....I love it....
Admittedly, I was a huge S.P. fan long before this campaign season...But, I love her candor. If she said this, while not in good traditional campaign form, I'm fine with it. Can't say that I disagree with much of it.

I'm rested, I spent a great night with my in-laws, doing puzzles and drawing with my niece, eating dinner with my SIL and BIL. All good!

:hi:
