If Hillary is already this divisive to her own political affiliation how divisive do you think
...she'll be for the rest of the country?

She's broken my heart (curled up in a fetal position eating chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream) by cheating on us with McCain, I'm disappointed in her .... I expected more.

Now Spitzer!?!?!

I'm going to get some chocolate syrup, sigh:..............I'll be running an extra mile tomorrow to burn off the calories.

1. Soooooo. . .
it's your belief that she knew all about Spitzer's involvement (as a "John") in
the prostitution ring?

Ya think that Spitzer told Hillary all about this when he didn't even tell his wife?

:eyes:

2. What about Barack being equally divisive? Just as many won't vote for him in the GE.

3. Divisive how, apart from actually beating Hillary?
Edited on Mon Mar-10-08 09:45 PM by Spider Jerusalem
If a bunch of Clinton personality cultists are going to throw a tantrum if Hillary doesn't get the nomination, are we supposed to care? Does it bother you that much that what was supposed to be a coronation has turned into a contested election instead, and Hillary is losing? If that's your problem, then one questions whether you belong in the Democratic Party, because that's a profoundly undemocratic attitude.

5. I have a problem with those who threaten violence if Obama is not selected and I question those
that question the loyalty of any who do not support their chosen candidate.There have been threats to Sen. Clinton and her supporters. When people think they are entitled to take an election by force, I have a problem with that. When 20% of dems say they will not vote for the candidate if it is Obama and 20% say they won't vote for the nominee if it is Clinton, there is a problem.That is divisive. There have been posts here and elsewhere that threaten viloence that the convention.That is in no way "unity".that is divisive.

6. There have also been clear statements from the Clinton campaign...
that she cares nothing for honouring the primary results and will attempt to gain the nomination through use of superdelegates even if she has fewer pledged delegates going into the convention. That is also divisive; and if that scenario comes to pass, it WILL trigger a rift in the Democratic Party, make no mistake.

7. But that doesn't negate the fact that Obama is equally divisive.
Ther is already a rift in the Democratic Party.They made it worse when they forced Edwards out for their "historic candidates" and when they didn't "fix" the problems of FL and MI. .

8. He's only divisive if you happen to be a Clinton supporter.
His campaign has done nothing as divisive as what's become standard fare for Clinton. I think that your suggestion that 'Obama is equally divisive' is somewhat tainted by your perspective. All he's done is WIN, and make Hillary's chances of winning the nomination extremely unlikely. That isn't divisive, that's politics. Suck it up and get over your disappointment.

9. Nothing is as divisive as the race baiting being done by the Obama Campaign

4. "...how divisive do you think...
...she'll be for the rest of the country."....

....I'd say, on a scale between 1 and 10, about 9-3/4....
