Has Hillary Burned You Out YET!!!!!!!


....she has me.

As I have posted here on DU several times I don't believe that she is being straight up with her agenda and she lack real sincerity and being truly genuine. Sadly Hillary portrays herself as an angry arrogant women who almost feels as though the office of the POTUS is an entitlement.

I really hate to throw this out there but somehow I believe Hillary and McCain are working together and no matter which of those two we elect we would still get 4 more years of BUSH policy's. Hillary's campaign seems to almost use plays out of the book of ROVE. The thing that is most scary to me is the suspicious support she is getting from the RIGHT. The Clinton's are to close to Bush and his family.


It is time for Hillary to demonstrate that she is a lady of the party and step aside. Her stubbornness is a telling sign that she will be like Bush where it is either my way or the highway. I don't think she has the personality nor the respect to heal the damage cause by the current occupant of the White House and bring respect and dignity back to the USA.

1. That's her goal. It's the "pox on both houses" strategy
She won't let up until the entire party is down in the muck with her. She knows she's lost for 2008 and she wants to make sure there's no Democratic incumbent in 2012.

6. No. But I am getting mighty tired of BOTH sides demanding that
either candidate stand down.

Would you please shut up and let the primary process finish? Thank you.

13. Yes! How about letting the process play out?
If you are worthy of the Presidency you are worthy of scrutiny. No easy paths to the prize.

7. America REALLY has a bad case of Clinton Fatigue.....


They're not defendable anymore.... they've burned ALL of their political capital with the general public years ago.... and with us hardcore Democrats in the past two months.


The general feeling for 3/4 of the country is simply now on mass sigh..... "Please go away, Hillary. Just go away."

Ban me. Ignore me. I'm sick of you Hillary haters. She conducting her campaign as whoever you support is as well. Evidently she's doing a pretty good job.

14. I respect her, but she is a real load
I was a huge lackey for the Clintons in the 1990's. I defended them against every absurd charge thrown at them, as well as some of the more serious charges. It was mentally very exhausting. I will vote for and support Hillary if she wins this nomination fair and square, but if she is the next president I'm not up for being a soldier in the Clinton Wars II. Somebody else will have to do that for the next four years because it won't be me.

17. Yes, unfortunately .

Yes, I am done. Like the previous person wrote, I was an early member of Move.On and stood by the Clintons throughout the 90's. I have also watched Hillary become a first-class Senator able to represent her state sufficiently well to gain reelection with 67% of the vote. But I'm done. Keith Olbermann captured the essence of the last several weeks of her campaign and it's appalling. Politics is one thing; personal destruction and lies are another. It is not enough to disassociate from these types of comments. For gosh sakes, this is exactly the racism, sexism, anti-semitism, anti-immigrant, anti-anything different attitude and behavior that we find so appalling in the Right wing. She should be expressing outrage and have made it clear there is no place for this in her campaign or her administration. Instead, she has allowed her surrogates and her campaign spokespeople to use doublespeak and twisted words to extend the news cycle. Where is her moral center? Where is her judgment? At the very least, where is her ability to restrain her own campaign. The best I can some up with is that "it's just politics" and that means "I'm done."

She may think that this is a path to winning PA and enough of the South. I, for one, am finished with her and her husband. I no longer believe that they have the best interests of America in mind. I believe that once they start playing the game, the game is all that matters. While I am worried that Senator Obama does not have the breadth of experience to counter a McCain challenge (although I think McCain will implode as the pressure mounts), I have no such doubts about Senator Obama's judgment. Her behavior now makes me think about the unthinkable: that I would rather error on the side of losing with dignity and more importantly on the side of justice and righteousness than to win and Irreparably tear the Democratic party and the liberal majority apart for generations. Democrats are better than this. The American nation is better than this and we need to take our country back. Otherwise, as Mike Malloy said this evening, we have nothing to look forward to but the slow, steady, and inevitable decline into corporatism, better known as fascism.
