Senator Clinton's new message: Don't get your hopes up and get real
Wow, that's inspiring. MSNBC just showed her saying it's time "to get real". This correlates with what she said in the New Hampshire debate about needing to be realistic. Who would vote for a message like that? Her message is just horrible. Presidents have always inspired and made the nation reach for loftier goals, a higher purpose.

This is not the way to win.

3. Well that's really uplifting...
Thanks Hills. If we wanted depressing crap like that we could just amend the constitution and keep Bush around.

4. Did you hear Chuck Todd say that they're basically giving up on winning
through delegates and are now going to focus on convincing people that Obama is unelectable? :wtf:

7. After the NH debate, when she said let's be real
The New Hampshire voters loved that message of wanting to get real and voted for it. So, it does work.

22. Keep lowering expectations. How inspirational.
Just makes me want to go out and knock on some doors and win one for "barely good enough". Yay mediocrity!
