Can anyone around here say anything nice about Hillary?

[Auntie Bush]

Just wondering? :shrug: If she's so awful...why/how does she get so many votes. I guess this place doesn't represent the real world.

[LittleClarkie]

1. I'm sure the Hillary supporters can

Do you not see the Hillary supporters?

[Auntie Bush]

18. There doesn't seem too be many. Almost every post is anti-Hillary.

One sure feels like a minority around here.

[Scairp]

42. I'm here

I know she's the only one who can do the job of president, and why others cannot see that Obama is too inexperienced and too new to the national scene to lead the country effectively is beyond me. At this point in his political career, he would not be an effective leader, he would fail and end up being a one term president. Who the hell wants that? Wake up all, Hillary Clinton has the experience, the smarts and the ability to lead. Obama just doesn't, period.

[bellasgrams]

45. Scairp-You are so right. There is no way BO can handle the job.

Bush has had almost 8 yrs of on the job training and look what he's got us into. Do we really want even 4 more years of a know nothing pres. Everyone said Bush would surround himself with smart people. Look what we got. Chaney's had more power than 'W'. We need a President that can and will think for herself, know what to do in an emergency. Will bring hope and peace back to our beleaguered country.

[Scairp]

43. Sorry

Duplicate post by me.

[Olney Blue]

2. I like Hillary's position on science funding.

[ErnestoG]

3. Yes. She'll make a nice Senate retiree.

[Hill_YesWeWill]

4. I think she knows a lot about policy nt

[ursi]

I admire her for putting up with Bill's personal issues, I divorced someone like that

so she has more patience then me.

[Kittycat]

16. I can't admire that, and I too divorced someone with similar "issues".

[Levgreee]

5. Despite campaign methods, which I don't appreciate...

(and which partly attribute to her political success) I know one of her largest goals is to help people, and that she is a compassionate person. It seemed like she was/is a good mother, too.

[Auntie Bush]

24. Thank you!

I'm starved for something positive. Sure there are her regular supporters but...I don't notice many average non-activists posters having much to say.
Just giving them a nudge to chime in.

[BlackVelvet04]

33. I missed that one....

she certainly has been a good mother because she and Bill have raised a very nice daughter.

[aquart]

Honey, we're just not that insecure.

Do you need reassurance about something?

[papau]

35. Is that fair? you have Murdoch(Fox News-NY Post) endorsing Obama - all Hill has is the NYT - Hill

folks should logically feel insecure.

POST ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA


January 30, 2008 -- Democrats in 22 states across America go to the polls next Tuesday to pick between two presidential prospects: Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

We urge them to choose Obama - an untried candidate, to be sure, but preferable to the junior senator from New York.<snip>

For all his charisma and his eloquence, the rookie senator sorely lacks seasoning: Regarding national security, his worldview is beyond naive; America must defend itself against those sworn to destroy the nation.

His all-things-to-all-people approach to complicated domestic issues also arouses scant confidence. "Change!" for the sake of change does not a credible campaign platform make. But he remains a highly intelligent man, with a strong record as a conciliator.<snip>

Finally, Sen. Clinton stands philosophically far to the left of her husband, and is much more disciplined in pursuit of her agenda.<snip>

[Coexist]

6. the first time I voted for Bill - it was really a vote for Hillary

I loved her cookie/standing by her man comments.

And I think she would make a very competent CIC.

[Catherine Vincent]

21. You know, actually that comment turned me off.

I don't know why, because I wasn't a stay at home mom but I didn't like Hillary during Big Dog's first years in office. Come to think of it, her attitude back then reminds me of Obama now. LOL.

[jillan]

7. She's fiesty...

a fighter, extremely sharp and quick thinking.

I think she would make a better President than her husband.

[samdogmom]

I think she and Bill raised a wonderful daughter!

It's a testament to their parenting skills. Chelsea handled the difficult White House years gracefully and has become a fine young woman. Hillary and Bill should be very proud.

[Nitrogenica]

8. It's not her fault that she's too divisive.

[TheDebbieDee]

25. Right-wing meme.......

[MonkeyFunk]

9. I can!

She's tough as nails, sharp as a tack and cute as a button.

[fenriswolf]

10. because all people know is they want a liberal now

Hillary has been called a liberal by republicans for decades now. They don't bother to educate themselves all they know is they want a liberal. Most democrates are voting on who they like better as a person. There both democrates so they will of course represent out interests right? wrong.

HILLARY IS NOT A LIBERAL, SHE IS NOT PROGRESSIVE, SHE IS A CORPORATE WATER BOY

[BlackVelvet04]

34. Why don't you go piss on someone else's thread...... n/t

[fenriswolf]

37. because this one was so inviting.

[Auntie Bush]

50. It was meant to be inviting.

But now you're dismissed. Run along now!

[fenriswolf]

55. ok doky

feel free to pop in to this thread for a good discussion

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=4304802&mesg_id=4304802

[Starbucks Anarchist]

11. She's very intelligent.

[Danger Mouse]

12. I've said several times she'd do fine and she's a hell of a lot better than any of the rethugs.

And I will happily vote for her in General Election if need be.

[goldcanyonaz]

13. Hillary Clinton is a superstar in my eyes. Going to work for her starting tomorrow.

[Auntie Bush]

54. Good for you goldcanyonaz.

Keep us informed on Hillary's latest doings. Thanks in advance. Go get em.

[mathewsleep]

14. she has hair.

[FrenchieCat]

15. Loved Her Red Suit!

[Auntie Bush]

31. Well, I hated her yellow suit.

lol Good move! Got your message.

[MoonRiver]

17. She's a fighter and defender of Democratic values I hold dear.

There's more but I am tired and about to retire. :)

[grantcart]

19. great Senator for the state of New York

[DesertFlower]

20. she's intelligent and

definitely qualified to be president. i voted for obama in the primary, but if hillary is the nominee i will support her 100%.

[we can do it]

22. I Like Hillary

She'll probably gain my support, but my first 2 choices have been excluded by the media........

[BeyondGeography]

23. She's still kinda good looking

and smart, too.

Hey, her support is real. I was out in the NYC streets at rush hour today handing out Obama flyers, and many of her loyal faithful trudged right on by like yours truly didn't exist. Some even winced. Or maybe they just hate politics.

Barack has his friends here, too, of course.

[MonkeyFunk]

28. How do you know they were Clinton supporters?

Lots of people walk right by people handing out flyers.

[BeyondGeography]

36. Because they had giant H's on their foreheads

I'm in Hillaryland here in the northwest Bronx. Just about all the adults vote and they vote Democratic. Call it a vibe, if you will.

One kid with a weird hat with earflaps did shout out John McCain's name, though. I think he may have been armed.

[MonkeyFunk]

41. LOL

yeah, stay away from people in hats with earflaps.

[newmajority]

58. Arnold J. Rimmer is a Hillbot???

[newmajority]

26. I'm sure she loves Chelsea very much

maybe even Bill too.

[tammywammy]

27. She looked great a the SOTU!

That color looked good on her. And she has a really good hair cut right now too.

[napi21]

29. I'm really torn between who to vote for now. Our Primary is Feb 5th, and

I was absolutely sure I was going to vote for Biden! He's gone now, and I lilke things about both of the remaining candidates, and I dislike some things like both. I've spent way too much time watching political coverage on TV and reading DU and a lot of other web sites.

Hillary is a very smart woman, and she HAS met a lot of the World leaders, knows how the WH & the Senate work, and has also learned what doesn't work. I like her health care policiy because it sounds like one that COULD pass! I don't really like the idea of a US dynasty.

Obama is also a very smart man. Taught the Constitution in a law school. Is very optomistic...sometimes TOO much! I'm not usually a pessimist, but too much optimism is just unrealistic!

[BlackVelvet04]

30. sure....

she's intelligent and savvy.

[nonconformist]

32. I think she's an incredibly strong person.

To be as vilified as she is, to stand up and take that crap day in and day out from both sides shows how strong she is. I really admire that.

[Auntie Bush]

39. Me too. I don't know how she does it.

[Nailzberg]

38. I like her jacket.

[Yossariant]

40. Madam President

[newmajority]

53. You're supposed to say something nice.

Not fictional.

[martymar64]

44. AS PT Barnum said

A sucker is born every minute. I'm shocked that so many people fall for her hustle. I just plain don't trust her. She surrounds herself with creeps like carville and Rupert Murdoch and Norman Hsu and is trying to make us all buy mandatory insurance or lose our jobs. She also plans to keep us in Iraq for the next eight years and supports outsourcing our jobs to india and china.

It reinforces my sinking feeling that Americans are basically chumps that will fall for any line of bullshit. After all, Americans voted in Reagan, Poppy and Baby Bush.
I'm so ashamed to be an American today.

[bellasgrams]

48. Well one of those creeps you just mentioned is endorsing her

so I guess you better take him off your list.

[martymar64]

60. I'm giving up on politics

This elections has totally alienated me from the process. In fact, I don't see how I can live in this world anymore where everything good in it is crushed and destroyed.

If I don't post in the future, please have somebody check to see if I'm still alive. Right now , I'm not so sure I will be.

[TheDonkey]

46. Nice hair.

[tandem5]

47. not lately, nope... this discussion forum is ugly. nt

[goldcanyonaz]

49. She's not Obama.

[newmajority]

56. Hey! This is supposed to be a "nice" thread

Why would you say something mean like that about her?

[Canuckistanian]

51. She sure doesn't sweat much for a medium-sized woman

Sorry, I got nothing.

[Alexander]

52. She will continue to be a good Senator from New York.

[Tatiana]

57. She was against NAFTA. n/t

[ronnykmarshall]

59. As Clinton supporter ..

and a new resident of Silver Lake (Los Angeles) ... I'm meeting more and more supporters of Hillary every day.

And being away from DU has made me see that the world really doesn't revolve around the bullshit and childish crap that is posted here.

Nice to get out in the REAL world.

[DiamondJay]

61. she is smart, abitious, and a Clinton

[juajen]

62. You bet! She's a buoyant, brilliant, beautiful and ballsy barrister whom destiny calls..

As her presidency nears, we should all be grateful that a woman of her stature has presented herself to our country. We are blessed.
