Edited on Fri May-16-08 09:36 PM by jenmito
"So from my perspective, you get up every day and you get out there and you make your case and you reach as many people as possible. That's what I intend to do, so I'm in it for the long run. It's not a very long run. It'll be over by February 5th."-Hillary Clinton

She also knew MI wouldn't count-"Well, you know, It's clear, this election they're having is not going to count for anything."

Times sure change, don't they?

3. Yeah, that's true. I just hope she has finally come to terms with it.
She told Katie Couric she WILL be the nominee and she doesn't even THINK about NOT being the nominee. I hope she started thinking about it now!

2. Did Hillary REALLY mean to disenfranchise all those states that wouldn't have voted yet?

Oh my, she did!

Tsk, tsk, Mrs. Clinton.

18. Yes. June 4th is the new Feb. 5th.
She never planned on running against someone like Obama.

14. But Not so fast........
Obama wrecked her well laid plans...she was caught after February 5th with no battle plan, and the war chest was nearing empty...the primaries were her's to lose, and lose it she did. She has no one to blame but herself.

19. Exactly. And if she couldn't see OBAMA coming, how was she going to see a TERRORIST coming?
Very Bush-like.

15. "I'm in it for the long run. It's not a very long run." Um, great.
I think we dodged a bullet back there, not unlike the Hillary didn't in Bosnia.

26. There you go again - using somebody's words from the past as some kind of witness
against their words in the present, just because the two sets of words are completely inconsistent and mutually contradictory. As if that meant something.

When did that become OK?

30. Hillary said to Katie: "It will be me."
First election failure since 1980. And this one could have been different.

positive about your candidate and stop tearing mine down.

40. Why don't you defend your candidate when confronted with facts? Oh right, you can't.
Because she actually said that, and it reveals her arrogance and hubris at thinking she wouldn't have a serious fight ahead of her.

41. I've started MANY positive threads about Obama. Do a search. Hillary needs to be called out
on her hypocrisy. And you supporters need to be "reminded" of the things she said BEFORE she thought she'd lose the nomination.
