Hillary supporters, here is a thought for you,
Instead of asking Democrats to accept Hillary's republican behavior, why don't you ask her to act like a Democrat ?

Has this simple thought ever crossed your minds ?

1. I reject your premise
Hillary is a Democrat, and she behaves like a Democrat.

7. As the above picture illustrates, right?
Why would a "Democrat" associate with people like Murdoch and Scaife, especially when they dedicated an entire decade to attacking her and her husband?

All this, Hilary is evil, she's rotten, etc. that begins the premise reflects not on Hilary, but on the person who writes it.

stumbling all over Axelrove's slime campaign against one of our BEST Democrats just so you can get Obama into the Oval Office.

I doubt that you even like Obama as much as I do --you just hate Hillary.

6. I don't think they are racist at all..
That makes the fact that they will use race-baiting to win even more despicable.

This shit ain't that complex, really.

The Clinton's are fucking ego-maniacs, with a delusional sense of entitlement! They suck! :puke:

9. Sorry, the race-baiting comes from obama's camp...the memo and
his deliberate distortion of Hilary's quote about MLK...Obama is about as low as you can get.

33. They aren't racists. They just hire racists to speak for them.
But that's really not much better, is it?

And Obama with McCain.




You know, this habit that Obama supporters have of claiming someone is a Republican simply because of a photo...it's stupid.

14. Hillary is more liberal than Obama
Based on their voting record, according to GovTrack.us, Hillary has more consistently voted the Democratic line

24. from the Weekly Standard - somehow they don't see her as a Dem either....
Edited on Mon May-05-08 08:19 PM by peacebird
"And better--or worse--she is becoming a social conservative, a feminist form of George Bush. Against an opponent who shops for arugula, hangs out with ex-Weathermen, and says rural residents cling to guns and to God in unenlightened despair at their circumstances, she has rushed to the defense of religion and firearms, while knocking back shots of Crown Royal and beer. Her harsh, football-playing Republican father (the villain of the piece, against whom she rebelled in earlier takes on her story) has become a role model, a working class hero, whose name she evokes with great reverence. Any day now, she'll start talking Texan, and cutting the brush out in Chappaqua or at her posh mansion on Embassy Row.

In the right-wing conspiracy, this adaptation has not gone unobserved. "Hillary has shown a Nixonian resilience and she's morphing into Scoop Jackson," runs one post on National Review's blog, The Corner:

She's entering the culture war as a general. All of this has made her a far more formidable general election candidate. She's fighting the left and she's capturing the center. She's denounced MoveOn.org. She's become the Lieberman of the Democratic Party. The left hates her and treats her like Lieberman. . . . Obama is distancing himself from Wright and Hillary is getting in touch with O'Reilly. The culture war has come to the Democratic Party.

She might run to the right of McCain, if she makes it to the general election, and get the votes of rebellious conservatives. Or she, Lieberman, and McCain could form a pro-war coalition, with all of them running to pick up the phone when it rings in the small hours. The New York Times and the rest of the left would go crazy. Respect can't get stranger than that."

as for me - a liberal, progressive - HRC is little more than McSame.
If she gets the nomination, I will not vote for her.

17. Blarch, here's a thought for you.
Instead of being a concern troll or posting flamebait at Clinton supporters here.

Do some positive advocating of your candidate.

23. My candidate is the nominee.
Your candidate has stated that McCain is more qualified to be President than Obama.

True democrats are pissed about her attacking our party. She attacked our (activist) base and attacked our nominee....while praising McCain.

Fuck her.

:rofl:

Ms Prez of the College Pubbies and Ms Goldwater Girl? IMO, she just needs to be honest ~~ which usually is an impossible thing for her to do ~~ and go over and officially embrace the evil side of politics. She is like them...and not like us.

JMHO

36. Obama has claimed that...
unifying people is in his DNA. So this picture simply shows that Hillary has already done something that Obama promises to do if elected.

Good try though...
