1. I'll listen to her again when she repudiates her war vote
Until then, she can go fly a kite.

2. I feel the same. Both her and Bill have lost me...
Edited on Tue Oct-14-03 10:27 PM by Flying_Pig
Bill came out to campaign in California for Davis and the NO on recall vote, and there was hardly any fire over it. It did not mobilize the Dems. Bill supported the war too, and gave support to Blair. It concernes me, why any Dem, from anywhere, would do ANYTHING, to give this president more power. The votes and support in the Congress from some of these Dems, for bills like the recent Syrian Sanctions, and Bush's war money request, are only empowering PNAC and Bush, helping his "re-election" efforts, and giving him the tools to wage more war. Why are they doing this?

4. Dems supported the war because we made the mistake of...
Trusting Bush to at least run a god damn war. Looking back I would've never supported a war now because of the Bush administration's policy. Bush's fuck ups have moved me from slightly conservative to moderate-liberal.

15. Rick Lazio would've probably been a better senator for New York.
No disappointment on which way he would vote.

5. Ditto
The last few times I've seen her on TV I have been struck by how smoothly and charmingly she says absolutely nothing -- that at least that could ever be construed as controversial. She used to appear to stand for something -- now I feel like every thing she does is filtered through the possibility of her one day running for President.

8. I wish she'd run
I'd love to see Hillary run for prez, either now or in 2008. She's a scorpio, isn't she? We really need a woman prez, it would totally realign our sicko war-driven nation. :thumbsup:

16. Oh please... as if women would not go to war...

"We really need a woman prez, it would totally realign our sicko war-driven nation."

as if there are not just as many greedy women as men who would seek to profit from war.

17. Well, lets all trash Hillary then . .
. . I had no idea that Denise "doshed" up her senate campaign - whatever the hell that means.

Maybe we can start a movement of Dems to get a Republican to take over her Senate seat. That will fix her wagon.

Now if we could just keep her from speaking out so rudely against Republicans - because anyone whose campaign was "doshed up" by Denise Rich certainly doesn't deserve to speak for liberal values.

Maybe you could start a "Kill Hill" group here at DU. Please don't put me on your list.

13. Iam happy when anyone slams the right !
The Clinton's have the right to slam them again and again , after what they did for eight years plus, to the Clintons. These threads that are nothing more then bait for us Dems to start doing what I call eating their own. Bill Clinton was one of the best Presidents this country has ever had, and he has his record to prove it. Even with all of the hatefull things the repugs did to him ,he still kept his miind open to all ideas ,reguardless of who it was coming from .Thats part of what made him so great,a open mind willing to listen to all sides and make an informed decision ! What we have now is a exact opposite of what we had ! Lets leave the Clintons alone ,the are still the shinning stars of the Dem party !

18. Is she correct?
New York Senator Hillary
Rodham Clinton says the 2004 election will be
a battle between the extreme right and
moderate Americans. In one of her strongest
condemnations yet of the Bush administration
she blasted the President and the Republican
leadership for the direction it is taking
America, likening it to a roll-back of the clock
to a time when “they didn’t have to deal with
women or gays or anybody else.”



Senator Clinton is absolutely right on with this comment. I especially like the fact that she framed the "battle" as one between the extreme right and moderate Americans. Compared to ideas and opinions floating around in Canada, for instance, most of us are no where near leftist. All the people who will be marching in DC come October 25? 99% of them are moderates. Good for Senator Clinton for telling it like it is with that statement.

20. Clintons
I can't help but think that she would like Bush to win in 2004 so she could make a run in 2008. For all that President Clinton did for the USA, they are still a power-hungry couple. I don't believe it would be beyond them to want to trainwreck the Dem nominee this year so she could make a clean run in 2008.

21. Sure, some women would
be as likely to wage war, but of all the women in politics that I've noticed lately, I bet they would have a different take on it. Anyway, it would bring a different energy to the wh, and I bet it would energize voters as well. And Hillary is one of the most experienced imho.

22. Just how would the Clintons go about making your "trainwreck" happen?
Edited on Thu Oct-16-03 12:44 AM by oasis
If the Clintons have the power of "willing" events to occur, why should they waste time by waiting around to be president of the U.S.?

They could rule the world.
