1. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[book_worm]

2. Was she Hill's campaign manager once upon a time?

[southern_belle]

8. Yes she was...

37. Patti Solis Doyle=Reality

"If Barack Obama’s the nominee, I’ll do everything I can to get him elected,” Solis Doyle told Politico."

Wolfson ..not so much..Wouldn't want to offend his sensibilities or would I?

"I intend to be working in the general election for Sen. Clinton," said Wolfson. "I find any other speculation offensive."

4. Quick! Lock the doors!

[KittyWampus]

she's incompetent. Who would want her?

[Occam Bandage]

13. I'm sure we can find good work for her.

Something like knocking doors or buying coffee and donuts. Just make sure to find something she can't fuck up as badly as she did Hillary's campaign.

[AllentownJake]

14. She's not incompetent

You don't get to be a campaign manager if your incomptetent. She would be an asset to the campaign and she will be taking orders from Axelrod so chill.

[KittyWampus]

18. she was campaign manager because she was a crony. Why do you think Hillary LOST?

Doyle spent her days watching soap operas and NOT returning phone calls.

[AllentownJake]

21. She ran the campaigns for Senate in 2000 and 2006

So she isn't a total loser.

She can be an asset.

[Occam Bandage]

19. As much as I might like to poke fun at the Clinton staff, this is largely correct.

She wouldn't be aiming the guns or laying out long-term strategies. She'd undoubtedly be useful in whatever limited responsibilities Axelrod gives her.

5. Clear out another spot under the bus

It's getting crowded under there.

[ronnykmarshall]

17. and polish a new halo.

[PBS Poll-435]

6. We are counting on ya Patti!

:-)

[samdogmom]

22. Why would we count on her?

She mismanaged Hillary's campaign to the point of "in the red" financially! How the heck can she help Barack? I understand she has a following in the Hispanic community. But she's coming from Hillary's campaign and she has no training in working well as a team member. Who is going to shadow her and keep her in line?

Barack does not need the divisiveness and back-stabbing that goes on in Hillary's campaign transferred to his smooth operation.

[PBS Poll-435]

28. Patti can do it!!! Props, girl!

(For the next two weeks)

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

9. No thanks. Hillary can keep her.

[southern_belle]

10. Apparently she wants to help the Obama campaign

in the general election.

[ORDagnabbit]

35. um...she didnt do such a bang up job for Hillary...why use her? n/t

39. Latinos {nt}

[AllentownJake]

11. Everyone Chill

She had a very succesful career before the Clinton Campaign. She is very well known for her work with the Hispanic community and would be an asset to the campaign.

Sometimes a job doesn't work out for many reasons. She is competent she was just in a bad position.

We are going to have Clinton people on our team so get used to it.

[KittyWampus]

20. wtf? Watching soap operas all day isn't being "just in a bad position"

[Occam Bandage]

23. She was put in a position she couldn't handle, on a campaign full of incompetence. Doesn't

mean that she is completely useless.

[AllentownJake]

24. Exactly

We are going to have Clinton people working in the campaign in a month everyone better get used to it.

[ronnykmarshall]

12. Something is up.

Don't you guys think?

There's all this talk about the Obama and Clinton camps starting to merge. Joint fundraisers? Michelle's nice comments about Hillary.

Uh, did Barack and Hillary have dinner and not tell US????

[Occam Bandage]

15. Heh. No matter how badly some of us might want to prevent it from happening,

this party is going to reunify within a month, and it's going to be stronger than ever.

[tularetom]

16. Sure, just roll that great big wooden horse through the castle gate.

I don't like the smell of this.

[blm]

25. Like when Hillary 'donated' Wolfson to Lamont campaign - then he started losing.

All of a sudden, Lamont's 'message' had difficulty getting out in the general election.

[nebula]

26. Having a spy/sabateur inside the Obama campaign

would be useful for McCain in the GE.


and also good for Hillary's run in 2012.

[4themind]

27. I think she oculd be benificial in the right roles

possibly with outreach to latino community/political leaders, quite a few of whom were upset when she was initially canned.

[soaplover20012001]

29. mark penn cometh

god

[nebula]

30. I think she will attempt to sabotage Obama's campaign

to help Hillary in 2012.

[TexasObserver]

31. of course you pick her up, and pick her brain

You don't let her be in charge of anything. You find out all the ways you can go around Hillary to get to her contributors. You use Doyle to help pick off delegates and superdelegates.

Good Get.

[alteredstate]

32. I hope she joins the Obama campaign team

She has a lot to offer.

[sniffa]

33. HRC makes a peace offering to Obama

[Vote2008]

34. Freaking funny!

[nebula]

36. I hope he isn't dumb enough to take the bait

just say NO to anyone from the Clinton campaign!

[my3boyz]

38. She said in a statement that she is with Hillary and has been with her for 17 yrs..She can't

be trusted!!!!!!!!!!!! On top of that the people in the Clinton campaign said she was responsible for a lot of the mistakes. Why in the world would the Obama campaign want her? She would probably be a traitor and try to destroy Barack's chances so that Hillary could run again in 4 years.
