You are one of the worst of the worst.
You are an embarassment to this site and to the Democratic party.

17. Read what Larry Johnson says in "No quarter"
As I have said before, I have had the opportunity to brief Senator Clinton twice on terrorism and Iraq during the last three years. During the course of my career at the CIA, State Department, and as a consultant, I have briefed in one form or fashion more than 60 members of Congress, a Vice President, and a President. I have participated in briefings for the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other senior military commanders. I entered my first meeting with Hillary with strong reservations about her competence (based entirely on what I had heard and read in the media). I walked out of that meeting very impressed. Hands down, I found her to be the most impressive person I had had the privilege to brief.

Why was I impressed? First and foremost, she listened. I have briefed folks who get the 1000-yard stare–they drift off and start thinking about something else. I also have briefed folks who get the panicked look from not understanding what I am talking about. Hillary was different. She listened intently, but she also grasped the substance and nuance of the issues we were discussing. Second, she asked tough questions that showed me she was genuinely searching for viable policy options. I had a similar experience with Senator Joe Biden, only that was during a hearing.

But unlike many members of Congress who rely on some aide sitting at their side to pump them with questions and information, Hillary could think on her own. She did not need “Foreign Policy for Dummies.”

Hillary also is one of the few members of Congress who understood the difference between Special Forces and and Special Operations Forces. You would be shocked at the number of Senators and Representatives who are supposed to exercise oversight of the military and do not understand this basic point.

9. Curious to see if....
this primary season births a new, powerful third party.

Scary to wonder if it will be a Grassroot Democratic Party, or a DLC centrist spin-off.

I only write this knowing that I'm not the first to see the possibility, for better or worse.

I shutter to think?

12. Let her run with McCain.
I'd love to see Rush's dittobots try to hold their noses and vote for McCain/Hillary ticket...

16. OMG - if it were a McCain/Hillary ticket
the right would abandon the republican party and form a new party.

They would not pinch their noses and the convention would be a hoot to watch. :rofl:

13. Unfortunately, she's got us on that.
We need her to end her pro-McCain campaign. As much as it's wrong in principle to give in to such behavior, I can't think of any other way out that won't end up in an automatic McCain victory.

15. I doubt she wants that. Plus, McCane doesn't want her anywhere near. She is just very selfish. nt

18. This is strange. When I listen to TV, I am hearing them say
Hillary must put Obama on the ticket. Just the opposite of
the headline in the post.
