Here's the proof the GOP is running scared of Obama, and are calling conservatives to prop Hillary up. There slogan is "keep her in it so she can win it"---TAKEN FROM RUSH LIMBAUGH's WEBSITE!!!!February 7, 2008
RUSH: Drive-Bys get hold of my thought, my consideration of helping Hillary raise money. They'll miss the reason. They'll just publicize, "Limbaugh is so upset at Romney getting out, he's thinking of raising money for Hillary, period." But the reason for raising money for Hillary is because that apparently my party is relying on fear and loathing of Hillary to get the nomination, to unite Republicans, who are, some of them, off the reservation. The Republicans do not seem to be relying on leadership in their party to unite the party. They seem to be relying on all these external things, nobody is going to vote for Hillary, negative turnout factor. What if she's not the nominee? We've got make sure she's the nominee if the Republican Party is to be unified. What more loyal thing could I do than to run a fundraiser for Mrs. ClintonRUSH: I'm dead serious about considering this. I mean, you may think this is a joke, but it is obvious. I've read things. I've seen things. I've heard people say things, pundits on our side, "Don't worry about McCain, Rush.Hillary is so hated and despised and loathed and so forth. That alone will unite our voters: the fear and loathing for Hillary Clinton." It appears that may be what our strategy is. Rather than get leadership, conservative leadership for our own party, it may well be that that's the thing -- and she's in danger of losing the nomination. Folks, here's this rookie who's been in the Senate for two years, and he's smokin' her on fundraising? Heis doing everything that he can and is succeeding, and she's had to borrow money and so forth? If our electoral victory in November requires her being in the race, we gotta stop him; because there's no fear and loathing on Obama. You can't run against Obama fearing him or loathing him or dissing him. It isn't going to work. He doesn't have the personality that makes anyof that fit. So we need to keep her in it so we can win it. I'll have more on this as I give future thought to this.
RE:
yes, definitely fishy things when ann colter & rush limbaugh speak.
it's so obvious what they are doing. but i'm not sure they realize the backfire potential when people realize that they are "considering" "voting" for her. it might turn even more people off to her.
but, hillary is the one magic bullet that can mend the war between who's a "real" conservative and unite the huckabees & romneys with the mcains. otherwise, if obama wins i think they'll stay home or vote in some protest way (maybe 3rd party), thus taking votes away from mccain, and obama can smack him down!
and if she wins i might just stay home or vote for nader...
i can't vote for war, and voting for her to me is voting for war.
i can't believe she didn't even back the Levin amendment, that was shocking to find out, since I've been upset by her war vote even thinking that she supported those guidelines!! ugh.
i love how accountability is so far removed from our country. actually, i don't love it at all. i hate it.
i cringe every time she talks about how this is "george bush's war". i wanna ask, "then why did you allow him to do it?"
plus it's really the Project for a New American Century's war, who petitioned Pres. Clinton to invade in 1998, and she never questioned it once when it came up again after 9/11?never felt any deja vu??? scary!
do people really want to regress? are people so desperate that they think replaying the clinton administration is what we need to do? that just doesn't make sense. that would turn the dial back on our country. and i don't want to repeat the last 8 years.
while i like a good fight, our country needs some aspiration of healing and awe from within; hillary is incapable of that. barack can provide both the fight and the peace.
bill was okay but surely not the be-all-end-all...and he has quite a lot of baggage.
wake up! i'm sick of the clintons. almost as much as i'm sick of bush. the majority of my life has been spent under a bush or a clinton or a bush AND a clinton (i'm from texas).
enough already!!!!
OBAMA 08
new bumper sticker
or: Hillary Clinton: from Wal-Mart to the White House to NAFTA
when the ridiculous "race war" question is asked tonight, Barack must address it for what it was, that Hillary implied a minimization of social movements at the preference of politicians. The example could have been Cesar Chavez or JFK, etc. and had nothing to do with race. The "fairy tale" comment by Bill is a little trickier, I think he again means the "idealistic brand" that Obama has in his favor.
I really like what James Clyburn said on CNN's Situation Room. Regarding FDR and important issues he knew he needed to sign into law, saying to citizen activists who had convinced him, to "go out and make me do it"
this is about the principles of social movements, momentum, and dreams versus the agendas of corporate america and the slow bureaucracy of politics. not race. hillary thinks the former is "false hopes". that's insulting.
so she is either jaded, or is not a fan of America's social movements like she claims.
