CNN - Clinton wins Indy racer's Endorsement

[my2cent]

The Clinton campaign on Monday touted the endorsement of Sara Fisher, the first woman to earn a pole position at an IndyCar series event.

"We need a president who will stand up for us and be a fighter for Hoosiers and all Americans," Fisher said in a statement released by the campaign. "Hillary will be a president who steers our country in the right direction and puts our economy back on track.

"Something Hillary and I have in common is our commitment to achieving our goals, leaving roadblocks behind and refusing to be knocked down," she also said. "Hillary is a doer and a fighter who keeps getting out there, going for the checkered flag.”

Fisher has completed in six Indianapolis 500s and will try to qualify for her seventh this month.

6. Good luck, Sara. The last female racer embraced by Clinton broke both ankles and was euthanized.

May the fates smile on you.

9. Dude, thats not very nice...Seriously!!!

I hope you self - delete that. Thanks.

11. That's not funny - and not because of Sara.

Sara can make her own decisions about racing and the strains it places on her and a non-living engine.

Eight Belles wasn't given that consideration and my heart is broken because of what happened to that lovely creature.

12. Not cool.

[BlueIdaho]

14. Not funny

This Obama supporter says enough already.

But - Indy cars run on ethanol - I thought HRC blamed raising food prices on ethanol production...

22. We both seem to have that elitist, snobbish sense of humor.

:evilgrin:

[NYDem Observer]

28. Funny stuff

:rofl:

Some people just can't take a joke.

[Lucky 13]

30. Please, dude. Stop with the horse comments.

What happened to that horse is AWFUL. It makes me sick thinking about it. Maybe I'm oversensitive, but I personally can't handle thinking about it anymore right now.

It's got nothing to do with Hillary and I wish we wouldn't discuss it here anymore. I come to GDP to discuss politics. If I want to talk about animal abuse and suffering, I'd go somewhere else.

[high density]

32. I'm a bad person

and I laughed.

[LTR]

33. That's sick

But funny!

:rofl:

I do have a crude sense of humor.

[Buzz Clik]

35. There doesn't seem to be any wiggle room on my little joke: ya like it or ya hate it.

:shrug:

[Aloha Spirit]

10. This guy is also on team Hillary, quite a coup...

[mkultra]

23. from there he should be able to see the pie in the sky.

[JBoy]

13. A very fitting endorsement.

Sara Fisher started once on the pole (Kentucky, 2002), but her best-ever finish is second (Homestead, 2001).

[faithfulcitizen]

18. lol! 2nd place endorses 2nd place. Good one.

[mkultra]

25. shut up man, second place for a girl is first place for mankind

[Upton]

16. How is this relevant?

Do you honestly think this endorsement will have an effect upon the race?

[JBoy]

24. Well, if Hillary wants to ride around on the back of her car, it will screw up the aerodynamics.

[Texas Hill Country]

17. nice!

[Bigleaf]

20. Here is a photo of Sara Fisher for you. Kind of reminds one of the Clinton campaign to-date.

Sarah Fisher and the AAMCO No. 5 Dallara/Honda took a hard hit at Michigan.

[Buzz Clik]

27. Now you did it. Here come the attacks:

"You sexist pig!"

"That's not funny. Seriously. Not. Funny"

"F@#% you, you @#@# &%^*@ $%+% eating piece of @#@^!!!11one"

[blm]

21. Hey Sara - check her record - she ROLLED OVER every time for the GOP just like Bill did.

And Hillary never stood up ONCE for any controversial issue and wouldn't stick her neck out to oppose Bush and Rove her entire time in the senate.

[Beacool]

31. Thank you Sara!!!

34. I'm holding out for the Danica Patrick endorsement (nt)
