On Hardball...Hillary is still calling Obama her "opponent".
Edited on Fri Aug-22-08 02:27 AM by dkf
What's up with that?

They had a Hillary supporter saying they will be showing videos of people who say Obama committed voter fraud.

She also said that she will not be sad if Obama loses.

2. Oh. . Are we pretending it didn't happen or are we hiding it?
Edited on Fri Aug-22-08 02:29 AM by dkf

3. I saw that
What on earth was she thinking? She may have said it out of habit, but I can't imagine her making such a careless mistake. She's not known for being careless.

10. It wasn't very classy
Her political future will be affected by the way she behaves between now and November and I would really like to see her succeed. Anymore moments like that and she'll have a hard time recovering from the backlash.

7. Lawyers and politicans are trained to use words for their IMPACT on an audience.
I really have no patience with the "mis-spoke" crap. Someone whose entire life is invested in being a lawyer and politician develops the skill of using rhetoric, both oral and written, to influence others. It's the PRIMARY personal skill.

30. Actually i am suprised it got removed
It was an armchair psychologists break down of what is motivating Hillary.

Crazy in a daddy issue kinda way but hardly worth deleting.

24. The Actual Context, Sir, Renders Nonesensical Any Claim The Usage Means Continued Opposition
The word is used in claiming she has done a great deal to help the man who defeated her in the primaries, and the usage serves to emphasize these efforts, and make them loom even larger, by recalling their former status in conflict.

This is simply Matthews doing his usual "I hate Clintons and can't stand uppity gals at all!" schtick. The wretch is a toad, and has no more business presenting himself as a commentator on politics than he would have to step into an operating room to perform cardiac surgery.

28. That actually would likely lead to you being one of the best informed
You're not around to get caught up in the "OMG the sky is falling!!!" stuff that happens before all the facts are known on the latest drama. :rofl:

19. Thanks dkf for this info -- it's important (to me)
This type of stuff seems to get lost in the shuffle. But the devil is in the details. I have a feeling that the two U.S. political dynasties don't want a third to get started.

26. And the GOP Corporate Media
is keeping the Primary going with this crap. Why have a Hillary supporter on in the first place, except to gin up controversy going into the Convention? :eyes:
