Craig Crawford says the Republicans will bring up Whitewater against Hillary

[CatWoman]

I think that's a dumb fucking strategery.

[babylonsister]

1. Good. nt

[tyne]

11. Hillary

Really though....

I love Hillary, and I think she would make a fantastic President, but, do we really want to waste all of our time swiping back at cons/repubs for her past? Hardball would be following every whitewater, every supposed reprimand of a SS agent, every angle of Bill's penis...I get exhausted just thinking about it. And where would our issues be in all of this? Buried behind the bullyit.

However, with Obama....now there's a person who can handle any adverse/mythical charge with a few well-chosen words. I mean...did you hear that guy tonight? The press has no choice but to fawn over that great man. They hang on his every well-thought-out word or idea.

I love ya Hillary, and you deserve to be President..but, we've got to win and Obama is our future. You'd be a great Sec of Defense or Sec of State.

21. I meant 'good' because it's a dumb fucking strategery.

RE: Obama, you should start your own thread if you feel that strongly. There are supporters here.

[Erika]

2. And so?

It's a dead issue.

[spanone]

3. Talk about beating a dead horse. But desperation brings out the best in the thugs.

[OneBlueSky]

4. and they'll all wear splotched blue dresses to their convention . . . n/t

[MADem]

5. People will be bored, and they won't listen, and then, for some strange reason, they will develop an

inexplicable urge to go rafting on mighty rivers, and they won't know why.....

[wtmusic]

6. Hillary should bring up Whitewater against the Republicans.

$70 million wasted.

[donheld]

13. Damn Right. She should get infront of Whitewater

That was investigated to death, and nothing found. Bringing it up should only re-inforce the issue that $70 million was spent and NOTHING found.

[rwenos]

20. Absolutely Best Strategy

. . . would be to go on the attack. Whitewater was a put-up job, it was a witch-hunt. it was malicious, and most of all, it was meritless.

It will be an interesting test of Hillary's mettle to see if she opts for this intelligent, aggressive strategy. Or if she plays it safe and soft-peddles it. Or, worse yet, squirms.

She's got a chance to show she's tough. Let's see if she can bring herself to do it.

[Trajan]

7. Well .... sounds like Candy just did .. eh ?

Right on cue ....

[evlbstrd]

8. She can easily make it a joke.

"Finally. Republicans are recycling."

[Viva_La_Revolution]

12. perfect!

:rofl:

[tyne]

17. That was perfect.

We're going to have to remember that one.

[Skittles]

9. of course it's dumb

but that's what repukes do

[CatWoman]

15. he also said that the concilliary tone Chimpy displayed towards Nancy

is a trick.

:hi:

[lvx35]

10. Oh god...Its almost a point against Hillary right there.

Just the fact that I SO don't want to hear that shit again.

[benny05]

14. I agree

And he implied that other Dem candidates should do the same. How stupid.

[citygal]

16. Didn't Kenneth Star spend about $50M on wasting taxpayers dollars?

On this? Please start covering actual news!!!

[CatWoman]

18. I think it was closer to 80

[EST]

23. Actually the total spent attempting to castrate Bill Clinton was

91.6 million dollars.

[illinoisprogressive]

19. Hillary will not hesitate to dish the dirt and be dirty first. she has a rovian

type guy who's job is to be dirty and throw whatever at her primary opponets. If -that is IF- she was to get the nomination, don't think she'd be the innocent poor victim that she likes to play.
she'll throw it first and be as bad as Bush and Rove.
So, yeah the repubs will go after her and with everything to remind people of the down side of the 90s.

[Erika]

22. Hillary will win but not thru the dirty tactics of the GOP

Where are you coming from?

[zbdent]

24. Start putting up signs saying -

"Republican reruns ... investigating Whitewater yet again ..."

[Anarcho-Socialist]

25. Sounds good for the Democratic Party

If that's the best the Republicans come up with. I hope the GOP and its allies spends a shit-load of campaign funds pushing the Whitewater deal, because every Democratic candidate will benefit from it as it is an inefficient use of funds.

[CTyankee]

26. She should talk about how the time, energy and money spent on that sinkhole

distracted us from what should have been our major objective: preventing 9/11 from ever happening. While Bill was hunting OBL his Republican tormentors concentrated on Bill night and day, trying to destroy him.

If the pubs hadn't been so determined to get Bill, maybe, just maybe, Bill could have put OBL away. He came close as it was.
