Sorry Hillary, but making fun of Barack's message of unity and hope is NOT going to help you get substantial wins in Ohio and Texas -- the only way you'll be able to stay in this race. You are not going to steal his supporters by making fun of them. You've already tried that, and he kicked your ass in the debate. He knows there are challenges, but you seem to only want to fight with people rather than getting things done in Washington. Just because it's a challenge doesn't mean it has to be a ridiculously bitter fight, which seems to be your goal.
Your campaign almost went bankrupt, to the point that you had to donate $5 million to it. Oh yeah, Hillary, where are your tax returns and a list of the donors to the Bill Clinton Presidential Library so we can get a clearer idea of where your money is coming from? We know Bill got paid $20 million by the Emir of Dubai for a business deal supposedly gone bad, though many have speculated that the $20 million payoff was more of a political ploy by Dubai than anything else. We all know they got blocked from trying to buy some key ports in the U.S. They are looking to buy more political power and influence in an effort to get more of their interests passed into law.

If you can't even properly run a Presidential campaign, then how the fuck are you going to run the country? You are overspending and already in big debt for the campaign. This spells a disastrous time for America if she is elected. If she can't run a damn campaign properly, then no one should trust her to run the government properly -- particularly the government's budget.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
That's fucking embarrassing. I feel sorry for her right now. She wants to win so bad, she's going to try anything. Watch how ugly it gets this week. And be sure you watch how Obama will stay above it all. He won't stoop to her level. Can you imagine Obama mocking Hillary?

Exactly. If you saw her yesterday, she was whining that Obama was engaging in Karl Rove politics. Well, wasn't she the one who said she was vetted and could handle Karl Rove politics while Obama is too inexperienced? Every single lie and cheap shot she has thrown at him, he has handled with grace. The worst examples of Karl Rove politics came from her campaign:
1. In New Hampshire, she has caused a deep rift in the Democratic Party because she sent out a letter attacking Obama's position on abortion. It was incredibly misleading and made him look like a Republican, when in fact liberal watch dog groups give him a 100% rating for his abortion views. It was so misleading that some of the powerful female members who signed it have come out and admitted that they wish she had never sent that letter out and they wish they had never signed it because it's misleading. This, my friends, is known as gender-baiting. It is the equivalent to if Obama sent out something to black voters telling them that Hillary Clinton would take a right away from them. Barack did NOT complain about this in New Hampshire. He handled it with class and grace. He congratulated her on her victory, even though it was a cheap one through gender-baiting. Read about it here:

2. Accusing him of plagiarism and then turning around and doing it herself in the same telecast, all the while stealing his campaign slogans constantly during the campaign. The plagiarism charge was a very serious one and a cheap shot considering all the stealing she has done during this campaign. The debate highlighted her constant theft of John Edwards and Bill Clinton and there are instances of her stealing "Fired up and Ready to Go" as well as "Yes we can." There's no bigger hypocrite out there than Hillary Clinton right now.
3. Larry Sinclair. I am almost certain that now we know he lied, we will eventually find out that the Clintons were behind it.
4. Bill Clinton's race baiting in South Carolina. Classic Karl Rove politics.
5. Fear mongering about Barack's health care plan, also classic Karl Rove politics.
He has not complained about any of these and has even turned the plagiarism thing into a humorous situation. She could learn a thing or two about class from him.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
I think she should just drop out now and show a little integrity. While they are close at the moment, there's no way in hell she can win and Hillary and her advisers have to know that. Her poll numbers have went in the same direction everywhere for months- down. The country is not interested in a Hillary presidency.
If Obama wasn't in the race, she would probably have the presidency handed to her on a silver platter(due to the weak opposition on the republican side). But history has placed an obstacle in her path, and she cant get around it.

The polls show Barack up by around 10 on McCain and Hillary down by around 10 to McCain.

Good point about her statement on Karl Rove politics. I do remember her saying that. She is just getting desperate. Obama has definitely handled it well, i think it's just his personality, but I hope it forms a change in political campaigning where people learn to take the high road, and dirty tactics no longer work. I don't think so, but it's possible.
As for Hillary, if I were her, I'd stay out of the national spotlight, not address Obama, concentrate on herself, not play dirty, and campaign HARD in Texas & Ohio. Big cities, small towns etc etc etc. Then hope for the best, and if you fall pretty far behind, graciously bow out.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
I told you she'd get dirty.
Take a look at this. She sucks.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
Hahaha, check out the editors note at the bottom of Hillary dressed as an Amish woman!!
I wonder if this is some backdoor agreement where she is admitting defeat but is getting these things out in the public eye so McCain will not be able to bring these issues up. This really seems to ridiulous for even her to think a picture will win her the election?? The picture isn't even that bad, I was expecting much worse.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
She just sunk to a new low. She's basically begging for votes now. Trying to make that picture an issue in this campaign is just complete stupidity.
The reason she has went insane is because she always expected to be president. She never cared about being a senator. She viewed it as a stepping stone to the white house. Now that her dream is literally dead, she is willing to do anything for one last chance. Its too late. Her next chance would be 2016 and she will be too old by then and no one will give a shit about the Clinton name.
Hillary, its over. Not only are your presidential aspirations dead in the water, but you are most likely serving your last term as a senator. 2008 proved two things: The country is suffering from Bush/republican fatigue, and people are remembering what they disliked about the Clinton "dynasty", and it outweighs the positives from that era.
The american people want a fresh face running the show.
Re: Hillary keeps digging her own grave...
New Texas poll: Obama 50, Hillary 46. This loss would be the fatal blow to Clinton. In Ohio, it's now 51 to 40 in favor of Hillary. Last week she had 55, Obama 34, so he's closing rapidly as she slowly loses ground. By next week, it'll be close, which also is a fatal blow for Hillary. She needs to win Ohio BIG, by a 60-40 margin like Obama has been winning. If she just gets 50 to 55 percent, she won't gain enough delegates to change the game.
