Where was Hillary's cry to let every state vote when she planned on "wrapping it up" Super Tues.?
Edited on Fri Apr-04-08 02:06 PM by jenmito
Why doesn't the media (or Obama surrogates) "remind" people that Hillary planned on winning the nomination by Feb. 5th? Why is she NEVER called on her ever-changing attitude/lines/goalposts?

ETA video of Hillary saying she planned on running 'til Feb. 5th. Link posted by mrJJ, post #14: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_eBIpEuO4U

5. What a phony. Where was her emotion for the IWR vote she "wishes she had back"?

4. They could still have voted...for her!
It's like her saying Bill clinton didn't have the nomination wrapped up until June in 1992, even though he pulled way ahead super Tuesday and by April it was clear that Jerry Brown couldn't win.

8. Not to mention when Bill "didn't wrap it up 'til June" the primary didn't start nearly as early
as it did this time.

10. No, but she tried her best. She used her "soft" voice, talking slowly, shaking her head,
acting like she really cared (except when she used MLK to try to minimize Obama's importance).

13. She said it took a president to realize MLK's "dream" as if MLK had little to do with the civil
rights movement.

15. Because she's completely full of shit.
At this point, if she said water was wet, I would have to go over to the ocean and check.

24. B,but that2 months ago! How many voters would have been "disenfranchized"?
Didn't she say Obama's win would be illegitimate if FLA/MI wasn't seated?

I'm so confused abour right and wrong now, Jenmito. Help me!

26. Many...
And yes, she DID say that.

It's easy-whatever Hillary says now is suspect and should be treated as a lie unless otherwise verified. :hi:

23. I say it from time to time.
Floridians (rather, FL Hillary supporters) themselves didn't give a shit about votes not counting until February.

Madfloridian's pretty much got me covered, though. :D

30. Agreed
I had a response to a thread yesterday with this quote too. Even if she got the 2024/5 needed, she'd still need to assume that her opponents wouldn't pull the 'pledged delegates aren't pledged so wait till denver' strategy, like she seems to be suggesting now

32. MI Flashback
October 11, 2007
Flashback: Does Michigan Matter to Clinton?

Hillary Clinton, during which she was asked about the Michigan primary:

"I personally did not think it made any difference, whether or not my name was on the ballot. You know, it's clear, in this election they're
having, it is not going to count for anything."

35. Exactly. I've expressed this a few times, the hypocrisy between her earlier ...
... "It'll be over by Feb 5th" stance, and her new, improved "I'm in it, to rig it!" stance.

I also have to chuckle at her admonishment of anyone suggesting that the superdelegates should unduly influence the remaining primaries, when she had collected 150+ superdelegates before a single vote was ever cast in January. Where was the concern for preempting the vote, then?

That's our Hypocritical Hillary.
