Advice to HRC: Stop with the being surrounded by youth - it makes you

[Peregrine Took]

look old and "school marmie" - get a representation of the population, young, old, middle aged.

As you have a strident way of speaking and a forceful personality - sell those qualities - you are not "manufactured" - you are a real person, warts and all. You are a "what you see is what you get" type person because you are a fighter, a "slugger" not a shadow boxer. There is someone THERE - not just a poof of air, a lot of blah blah speak, the lightness of being Barack, etc.

Take several pages out of Edwards's book and move to the left - far left - and emphasize a populist message and the differences between your health care program and B.O's.

1. From matrons everywhere ... HRC will not disappear from the

public stage.

[iconocrastic]

2. She craves adoration

Real or manufactured - mostly manufactured - that's what really lights her up

[goldcanyonaz]

3. As does Obama. It's called politics.

[iconocrastic]

13. Hillary's is pathological

[goodgd_yall]

14. Obama wants to be liked

I've noticed lately how he will change his style to fit the audience. He'll kid with the young folks a certain way which to me has that "I want you to like me" air about it.

17. Whaaaaa?????

Most women crave attention: simple respect for their efforts. Most women don't get it. Ever.

She's pathological? Well, then I guess politics is out of the question for her? :sarcasm:

[iconocrastic]

19. "Most women don't get it. Ever. " - this statement itself is pathological

No sarcasm necessary.

15. You sound like a frustrated psychologist. n/t

[ElsewheresDaughter]

11. hear hear

[bigtree]

4. she began her adult life working on behalf of children. They've been her passion most of her life.

I think that concern has an appeal which makes sense to highlight.

[goldcanyonaz]

5. It's heart wrenching to see her trashed on a Democratic forum.

[Straight Shooter]

7. Yes, but Democrats come in all stripes.

Some are skunks, spraying whenever they're bothered.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

10. her resume is fascinating in what it deliberately skips.

books could (and may) be written about how spin was the underpinning of the campaign, until eventually the wheels spinned off.

[iconocrastic]

20. What a fall, from children's issues to bimbo eruptions

[jillan]

6. Are you trying to insult Hillary because she is a middle aged woman?

Shame.

Don't blink, kid, because you will be there before you know it.

[calico1]

8. Yep...

Sometimes I wake up and still think I'm 19. It happens pretty fast, doesn't it?

[woolldog]

9. You missed his point entirely.

He wants her to be real.

[Darth_Kitten]

16. Like Mr. Stiff Obama?

The man can learn to show some honest emotion himself.

[MonkeyFunk]

12. Stupidest thread of the day

but it's still early.

[Lucinda]

18. It's 9:45 EST

and its still right up there

[Beausoir]

21. Another new low from the Obamanation kids. Middle aged woman=BAD!!!!!!!
