7. No dupe, this is about someone LEAVING - a guy named Mike Henry.

From the posted article:

Mike Henry announced his departure Tuesday, a day after Maggie Williams replaced Patti Solis Doyle as Clinton's campaign manager. Solis Doyle had recruited Henry to join the team last year.

Henry was the campaign's main field architect and was best known for penning a memo last spring urging Clinton not to compete in Iowa. He called it "our consistently weakest state." The memo was leaked to the media, which embarrassed Clinton as she was beginning to build an organization in Iowa.

5. Who was the dumb ass that leaked the memo before the Iowa caucus?

Someone not happy about not being the head of the campaign?

6. This is a good thing.

The fact that Senator Clinton is changing the guard is a good thing. As a Clinton supporter,
<<<Puts on cup>>>
I am excited that there is new blood running the show. Her campaign, especially in the beginning came across as arrogant with the perceived inevitability. Now that things are not going as planned it is time for a change in strategy. I like Senator Obama. I went to see him a few times both in Boston and NH, and I have to be honest... I feel like I am missing something as I don't feel the magic with him. I did not get goosebumps when he spoke like I did with Hillary. Maybe he was tired. I can't help but worry that his candidacy be like a souffle that deflates in the general election. Once the freepers are turned loose.

I still think Hillary can pull it through. I believe she would make a better president.

8. I'm with you boston

I don't feel the magic either. This Obama thing reminds me of the GWB hoopla surrounding Bush 8 years ago and look how that turned out. Obama is a media creation just as Bush was. I hope Hillary can pull out of this.

9. I agree,

I wouldn't use the word arrogant for the campaign, disconnected maybe, but not arrogant. Best thing she ever did is
accept their resignations and replace them with people able to WORK 24/7 just like she does.

Obama's starting to get on my nerves. He's doing a Comedy Central routine that is really more like campaintainment rather than a "presidential" campaign. What do I care that he's "skinny and tuff"...bfd What is he going to do for me and HOW is he going to get it done..

I almost barfed listening to him in this vid of him in Baltimore...Telling people everything they want to hear to dupe them into voting for him.. You have to listen to the Lies to appreciate what I'm saying:

11. Forgive me, but her air of entitlement, that she's somehow

"owed" or "entitled to" the presidency, and her running on a campaign of "inevitability" and her pulling the misogyny card every chance she gets, is more than a touch arrogant. Not to mention her refusal to even acknowledge that she was wrong on the IWR vote, let alone apologize for it, and her vote for every single war funding bill put before the senate.

12. You may be right... she needs to develop a show of her own..

after watching the American Idol, "Obamarama Show". I hope she learns from it. Obama does well, considering he's tied to a "slum" landlord about to go on trial and doesn't care to explain his connection to his former campaign manager honestly. Plus the fact, he was caught lying to his audience about passing legislation for regulating standards for a leaking nuclear reactor. When in fact the legislation died before anything was done about it. And the lying "vote getters" I posted upthread, where he said in his video..."passing health care like they have in Congress"...:rofl:

So, what's your beef with Hillary? Yessss, I forgive you. Lessee, inevitability, entitlement, playing the misogyny card..SORRY, your talking points have zero cred being they are straight out of the Obama Anti-Clinton play book and sooo overused by Obama himself, one wonders who's really behind that avatar..if thats the best you can do..

10. There is no one to blame but herself the warmonger

Why Hillary Will Fail To Win The Nomination

* Hillary will fail because she is as stubborn as Bush.
* Hillary will fail because she is as arrogant as Bush.
* Hillary will fail because she cannot admit a mistake.
* Hillary will fail because she supported the war.
* Hillary will fail because she continues to lie about why she supported the war.
* Hillary will fail because people do not trust here to exit Iraq.
* Hillary will fail because she is an insider representing the status quo.
* Hillary will fail because she too is a divider.

Why Obama Will Be The Next President

* Obama is a uniter who will exit Iraq and talk with our enemies instead of attempting to bomb them into an attitude change.

The public is sick of this war for economic reasons. Polls show the single most important thing we can do economically is leave Iraq. That's all you need to know. There are plenty of reason to vote against Obama. I for one, will not like many of the programs he will support.

But there is one powerful reason to vote for him. That one reason is enough.

Obama is smart enough to understand you cannot bomb enemies into an attitude change and it is a waste of money to even try.
