Run Hillary Run.......Everyone else Run For your Very Lives
This is the game plan........Run Bill, get Hill elected.........he won't have a word to say when
the evil deed is done mind you, it will be Hillary's sandbox all the way. Don't for one second underestimate Billary.
Why America would even consider a ticket with Bill implied as partner, is testimony to the perverse power the MSM still holds over the American People. Frankly it is neck and neck as to who was worse for this country and the free world, Jimmuh or Bill (see sidebar Fifth Column).
But remember, this is who she is;
Senator Clinton wrote to supporters on Tuesday, "Based on the information that we have today, Congress never would have been asked to give the President authority to use force against Iraq. And if Congress had been asked, based on what we know now, we never would have agreed, given the lack of a long-term plan, paltry international support, the proven absence of weapons of mass destruction, and the reallocation of troops and resources that might have been used in Afghanistan to eliminate Bin Laden and al Qaeda, and fully uproot the Taliban." For those of us who have expressed admiration for Mrs. Clinton's votes both for the war and for the $87 billion to fight it that Senators Kerry and Edwards voted against, it's a sickening reversal. She's saying, in retrospect, that the war was a mistake.
And even worse, now Human-Car-Alarm Susan Estrich, a law professor and former campaign manager for Michael Dukakis in 1988, has written a book called "The Case for Hillary Clinton," in which she argues her election would be a liberal "dream" and prevent a complete conservative takeover of the Supreme Court.
She even disses Time columnist Joe Klein, who says Hillary should stay in the Senate so her presidential campaign doesn't turn into "a revisitation of the carnival ugliness that infested public life in the 1990's." Ms. Estrich shot back: "Since when do columnists get off telling the candidate who is ahead in every poll that she's wrong to run?"
Hey Susan the Right has been wondering for years where columnists get off doing lots of the things they do - the least of which is voicing their opinion - Atlas
Ms. Mapes soldiers on, peddling her line that she and Dan Rather were victims of a conservative cyber-lynch mob that CBS caved to. But for someone who dishes it out in her book, Ms. Mapes isn't exactly eager to confront her critics.
[her book has] been trashed by CBS as "revisionist history" and slammed by both the Columbia and American Journalism Reviews, hardly bastions of conservative sentiment. John Fund, WSJ Political Diary
How persuasive is the media sway? 43% of the Country Believes We’re in a Recession, Pouting Pundits of Pessimism
Tom at BizzyBlog went to the source for the "in recession stat" and found that:
- 35% rate the
national economy as excellent, very good, or good and 63% rate it as bad,
very bad, or terrible.
- 13% say that the economy is getting better, 36% say
it is staying the same, and 50% say it is getting worse.
- 17% say they
believe the economy will be better a year from now, 20% say it will be the
same, 61% say it will be worse, and 2% are undecided.
This is beyond
absurd, given the REAL economy we're in, and I blame the WORMs (Worn-Out
Reactionary Media, known to most as the MSM) read it all at BizzyBlog (btw the best business blog, IMHO)

Re: Paul v. Clinton et al,
Holding Hillary Clinton Accountable for Campaign Finance Fraud in Hiding $1.2 Million I Contributed to Her 2000 Senate Campaign.
Dear Friends,
Earlier this year, the federal government prosecuted Hillary Clinton's campaign finance chairman, David Rosen, for election fraud, in a case based on my "whistle-blowing."
Rosen was not convicted. However, jurors publicly stated that they believed that there had been wrongdoing committed by Hillary Clinton's 2000 Senate Campaign, but they were not convinced that Rosen was behind it. I agree with the jury's conclusion that a "higher up" was involved. I know that "higher up" is Hillary Clinton. I know, because the $1.2 million in-kind contribution that Hillary Clinton hid from the voters of New York and the Federal Election Commission was my personal contribution to her campaign. I know that she caused false statements to be made to the Washington Post, and three fraudulent reports to the Federal Election Commission, in order to hide my identity and the amount that I contributed, in violation of various Federal laws.
Although only David Rosen was criminally prosecuted for her actions, Hillary Clinton is currently a defendant in the first ever civil lawsuit against a Senator and a President for fraud--the historic civil suit I have pending in a California Superior Court. The Clintons conspired to use a business deal that I was negotiating with President Clinton to induce me to become Hillary's largest contributor through three fund-raisers I produced and underwrote. This included the largest fundraising event of her campaign, the Hollywood Gala Farewell Salute to President Clinton, which was the centerpiece of the Rosen criminal trial.
The biggest legal defeat experienced by the Clintons, since Paula Jones won the right to sue a sitting President, has been the validation of my civil fraud suit against both Clintons by the California Supreme Court, when it rejected David Kendall's appeals to throw my case out. On October 14, 2005, a California Court of Appeal again denied a request by Mr. Kendall that Senator Clinton be dismissed as a defendant from the case. Now I am poised to begin discovery and prepare for a trial of both Clintons on the subject that will expose Hillary Clinton's personal misconduct in orchestrating the campaign finance fraud that assured her election to the U.S. Senate. But to continue my fight in this landmark civil fraud action - which will once and for all convict Hillary Clinton in the court of public opinion for her misconduct and doom her chances for election to higher office - I urgently need your help.









Aw shucks, Pamela, thanks.
Estrich has been telling everyone for years that Hillary can't win. Someone must have upped the Kool-Aid (Kook-Aid?) dosage.

Tom: I remember when the Kerry campaign was attempting to go to town that Bill and Hillary were all over the media.... Susan Estrich wrote an op-ed titled, "Will the Clintons Please Shut Up?" and it spiked (not printed) by ANY newspaper in the country.
Christopher Anderson in his book, "American Evita," wrote how the Clintons deliberately sabotaged a lot of the Kerry campaign resources so that Hill would have the best opportunity in '08 or '12.
Edward Klein's book, "The Truth About Hillary," sums it up well. I laughed when I saw that Senator Clinton's office was labelling Klein as a "right wing hatchet man".... nothing could be farther from the truth. Klein was foreign editor of Newsweek and he was also editor-in-chief of the New York Slimes Magazine.

Thanks for filling in the holes Mr. Carney. I especially remembers the "spiked" part of the Estrich story now.

No, please run, Hillary.
The MSM has always had a love affair with Mrs. Clinton. Softball questions, plugs for her book, fawning adoration and occasional bootlicking.
It's kind of bizarre to watch. I can't recall anyone in the press giving Hillary a hard time in an interview, can you?

I don't know why you guys are fussing. Jimmy Carter was one of the best recruiters the Republicans ever had and I believe Hillary would surpass his record if elected.
