Beginning to smell

like the price tag for Edwards endorsement of Obama will be the vice presidency. That will attract some but will utterly repel others. If anything does happen involving Obama and Edwards there'll be a lot of bandwagon jumping....both ON and OFF.

Go Hillary!

I think Gore is going to be

I think Gore is going to be named VP by either of the candidates when they get the nomination, especially if its Hillary. You know she must have a billion bumper stickers in a box somewhere that say Clinton/Gore that they have been itching to use up.

Maybe that's it.

I've believed in myself for decades. He sounds like he's trying to get me to believe in him when he hasn't "done anything for me lately" and it's a real turn off.

So ...

... what has Hillary done for you lately?

login or register to post comments | flag this »

  February 18, 2008 - 2:10am | bmcdaniel9

Wow

You really don't know?

Hillary Clinton:
opposed the nominations of both of the recent Bush appointees to the United States Supreme Court, John Roberts and Samuel Alito, and joined in the filibuster of Alito.

co-sponsored the Prevention First legislation in the senate and has introduced new legislation to ensure Medicaid coverage of contraception for low-income women.

led the fight, along with Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.) to force the Food and Drug Administration to allow emergency contraception to be sold in pharmacies without a doctor's prescription.

supported and is the lead sponsor of the Paycheck Fairness Act.

has supported raising the minimum wage every time it has come up in Congress.

was a leader in the fight to prevent the Department of Labor from undermining overtime protections for low-income workers, mostly women.

Darn, the list is way too long. I guess you'll have to do some research on your own.

Oh, and I loved her appearance at the 2004 March for Women's Lives! One and a half million femnists were there four years ago. Was Hillary's opponent there?

The same people who helped bring Jim Duncan in his role as the man contracted to do nothing and multi billion dollar PERS deficits will also be deciding who will be the democratic nominee?

Superdelegates

Given the Democrats have disenfranchised the good people of Florida and Michigan the superdelegates should consider this in their voting.

That is just like the way they tried to disenfranchise military voters in the election you are whining about. That is also the one where every impartial recount has shown Bush won Florida and all but the extreme lefties can even admit that now.

They should break down and vote proportionally with their state as a general rule. Then again the elitist limosine liberal view is they know better than you so as one of their brothers or sisters you should go along with them.

As an aside, the Caucus process favors supervoters and should be eliminated in favor of primaries. It is really no different than the superdelegate process. It also explains why Obama is cruising in Caucus states where he has mobilized the supervoters better.

The good people of Florida and Michigan...

...should thank their state idiots for disenfranchising them.

The DNC is only applying the rules that Florida and Michigan chose to disobey.

This whole flap is a total reflection of Hillary's air of "entitlement." The other candidates follow the rules and she does not, then she expects the DNC to reward her for refusing to be a team player.

There is a reason Obama got 75% of the Alaska Democratic support. The Superdelegates should remember that if they want to keep those influential positions that give them their status.

They move up primaries

and that justifies taking away their votes?

what reason is it that Obama won 75% support from AK Dems?

Is it that we are a state that constantly supports politicians for putting form above function? Rhetoric over results? Talk over experience?

Obama is Palin with different social views.

What's he done for all women?

I've been paying attention for a long time to people fighting for equal rights for all women and I never saw or heard his name until about a year ago.

Meanwhile, I've noticed Hillary has been working for all women, children and families here and all over the world for over 35 years. What's he done for all women?

She's taken leadership roles over and over promoting women's health, safety and equality. What's he done for all women?

She held up the senate on confirmation of Bush's nominees until she got what we wanted on Plan B. What's he done for all women?

After graduating from Yale Law School with honors, she didn't go to a corporate law firm. She went to work for a nonprofit, the Children's Defense Fund, not for a select group of kids but for all kids. What's he done for all women?

While I expect many, many Alaskan men don't care to help women secure the equal rights they were born with (which Hillary will very, very definitely do) why wouldn't all Alaskan women want that?

That is nowhere near where I was going with my post.

You are the resident militant feminist on here so I suppose that explains your tangent.

It is amazing to me that the feminists in this country stood by idly for the most part during the Monica Lewinsky fiasco. The silence was near deafening with a couple of notable exceptions.

It harmed the feminist movement. It is impossible to stand up for women's rights and then not be after blood when the President of the United States is a letch and has been a letch for a long time. Bill Clinton clearly has little if any respect for women.

The Clintons are all about playing politics. Hillary would have left Bill a long time ago if she had any convictions at all. It would not have allowed to run for office in the future however.

You can call it a double standard that it would have hurt her. The problem is until modern day feminists quit playing political games and actually start to stand for something they will remain what they are... a crazy aunt in the Democrat coalition.

And by the way, Hillary will abandon you in 3 seconds for political expediency just like her husband did.

Stereotypes again

Feminist men and women carried the Mat-Su caucus on their backs. Before, during, and after it was over. What did you do?

Not sure what you're saying here,

but I was at the Mat-Su caucus, and I didn't see or hear anything about "feminist men and women." Sounds like more revisionist history to me.

Huh?

Are you confusing "militant" with "unshackled?" Assertion and aggression are two very different behaviors.

As a character who appears to live on this blog, what is your resident role?

My cohorts and I are very realistic about what we can expect from politicians--to promote and support policies that serve our best interests.

Feminist men and women stand for equal rights. That's not nothing; that's everything.

Has name-calling been an effective method for you to shut people up who express a point of view that doesn't interest you? Isn't that classic batterer's behavior?

No

The word I wanted was militant.

There was an occasion once when the Womyn's International Terrorist Conspiracy from Hell (WITCH) wanted to douse my college president with red paint soaked tampons, or at least we hope it was paint. The effort was thwarted when a couple of innocent bystanders toppled their containers. It was but one of many escapades. Why do they replace the "e" with "y" when they hate the Y choromosone too much? Perhaps that is where womben comes from?

The thing is WITCH really is no different than NOW. The rhetoric and the agenda are the same. Principles get lost in the shuffle chasing the agenda. It is no different than other fringes whether it be environmentalists or evangelicals.

There is a lot that gets lost in the "equal rights for equal pay" arguments. Many women do choose to take time off for families or other activities and it tends to affect career advancement and paycheck. I know Dr.(Mrs) Sdog who goes by her own last name has made that choice to a certain extent.

One thing that is going on is the fringe has consumed the public school system. Normal male behavior is being repressed by political correctness. The result is boys are becoming less and less of a percentage of incoming college classes. The militants seem to forget that equal does not necessarily mean the same.

The use of the word "batterer" by you is exactly what I mean by militant. That along with the flying tampons and burning bras that tend to be the trademark of the feminist movement. It is full of vitriol and hate.

If you consider "crazy aunt" and "militant" to be namecalling you really need to grow some thicker skin.

Bang! There goes my toy gun again.

And well-stated, too. But you delude yourself if you think Hillary's agenda is all about women.

Right

Hillary is not at all a one-issue candidate.

McCain would beat up Hillary's primary opponent on national security but it will be a nonissue between Hillary and McCain as they are both strong candidates on national security.

women's rights

You are right on. Even the black man had the right to vote before women in this country. Women need to step up and stand up for themselves. Those women stepping up to vote for Obama due to "white guilt" need to look and be aware and acknowledge "treatment of woman guilt". Be good to yourself and other women first. Women have had generations of being second class citizens. Make women issues first.

Lewinski's ex boyfriend's wife for president!

So I guess when you see the state avoid a contract, merit principle, and educational qualifications so they can hire a sexual plaything into an unannounced position then you would get it. Discrimination works both ways, and President Bill C. had a favorite whitehouse page.

Quid-pro-quo happens without checks, is the court's true definition of corruption, and your Democratic chairs associated with state hiring policy sponsor it. Even if it does violate the state executive branch ethics act. Get a clue who these people are, who pulls their strings, whose they don't pull, and why they commit to Hillary.

Sex discrimination / favoritism is a double edge sword- if you don't know that ask Billy. Don't pretend otherwise until you figure it out.

I doubt it

I am a social liberal and I suspect stags is as well. The thing is issues like abortion, school prayer, same-sex marriage creation, etc. are way down on my list of importance.

Hence, I hold my nose and put up with the Huckabee crowd. The problem is there has been no party for a fiscal conservative like me for about 6-8 years now. It would also be difficult to win an election without the evangelicals.

The Dems face the same problem as lawyers, labor unions, limousine liberals who want to feel good and the entitlement crowd do not always see eye to eye.

It often comes down to who controls the crazy uncles the best in American politics. You notice Howard Dean and Al Sharpton seem to be locked in a closet somewhere. The Rs are actually doing a far worse job of controlling the fanatics right now.

If there ever was a time that a 3rd party candidate would have a chance this would be the year. It would have to be a strong conservative Democrat most likely from the South. It would be analagous to Lieberman in CT.

Here's a dark horse prediction. Lieberman could become McCain's running mate. Unlikely, but not outside of the realm of possibility.

Good stuff

A McCain-Lieberman ticket would be a step in the right direction toward diminishing the stranglehold partisanship has on the system. But I agree it is unlikely. Any other thoughts on who it might be? Do you think the country is ready for another Bush so soon, even if Jeb -- the smart son -- were interested?

I totally agree about fanatics. The Rs are in danger of breaking under the dead weight of an overreaching far right. The Ds need to be not so drunk with euphoria that they forget to do some major soul-searching and house-cleaning.

Whatever the outcome of the election, there is certain to be a major shift in voting patterns. Like him or not, Obama has a lot to do with that.

How about Bloomberg as a serious third-party challenger?
