“Can one even imagine a Female Hormonal, loud, crass President like her… battling Fundamentalist Islamic Extremists when Muslims don't even acknowlege 'the Female Gender?'”

I think you may be confused EC.
The Loud, Crass, President is the one all the world can't wait to get rid of, His Name is Bush. And he's on his way out thank heavens!

YOU are simple.

Ever heard of reverse psychology?

Don't under-estimate rove.

He got our sorry excuse for a prez, elected twice.

know how to govern in the majority. Hillary will not lose. You guys are dreaming. Does the country want another 4 years of a Republican Ppresident?

Before calling others stupid and remarking about their "low level brains" you MIGHT want to engage yours.

Dr Dobson has never been gay. It was Ted Haggard, Colorado Springs Evangelical Leader, that confessed to seeing a male prostitute.

Most people find it a bit ironic that "Madams" and Porn stars are coming out in support of Hillary, Bill Clinton's wife. It's just another reason Hillary will be the most divisive candidate in the next Presidential election.

Did Rove acknowledge that Hillary's negatives are coming down at the same time the republicans' negatives are going up? That she beats all the Republican candidates in one-on-one polling? Of course not. Rove has no vision for this country. His only vision was to win regardless of what lies had to be told. Remember what he did to John McCain in South Carolina? Distributing leaflets accusing him of fathering a black child. He is even willing to attack an innocent adopted child for the benefit of his ego. How can any decent Christian in this country stand behind or beside this truly evil man? He and his form of politics disgust me and the majority of thinking Americans.

Thanx Rove – for the free publicity!

Ask yourself, if Rove is a master of campaign trickery as he proved for G. Bush, why would he want to give publicity to someone who is a threat to republican presidency. Read between the lines.

Yes, you people ARE obsessed with Hillary! I've seen so many "HIllary is so delusional"-type comments here it's ridiculous.
There's more anti-Hillary books in the bookstores over the last decade than any other politician. Maybe there's more about Bush now–I don't know–but Hillary was NEVER a president (yet!).

He's just getting started. BWAH HA HA HA HA !!

The truth is that any of the major Democratic contenders would be head and shoulders above the lowly crowd of Republican pretenders. We should celebrate the fact that we have three such worth candidates in Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards. After the debacle of the Bush administration, we really have nowhere to go but up.

There are going to be spirited debates and disagreements among the top tier of Democratic candidates. That is as it should be. But focusing on scum like Rove just serves as a distraction. I think this is our election to lose and if we play it smart, we can take back the White House, and hopefully, our country.

I had never realized how small she is physically (she's 5'4") until she was standing next to the other candidates at the first debate. She almost seemed vulnerable, at least until she started responding to the questions presented to her. At which point she appeareed to me to be as tall as any of the men surrounding her. The more time passes, the more presidential she seems in my eyes. I think that our country we'll be just fine if she does become president.

How long has it been, Hillary, since a man has paid so much attention to you?

You wrote, "Obama has the same Washington insiders in his campaign that everyone else has in theirs, he gets his money from the same places the others do, his voting record on the Iraq war, since his election to the senate is the same as Senator Clinton's, with only one exception."

Let's be intellectually honest for a minute. Obama and Hillary share similar ideology but they are NOT the same.

Presidential campaigns are nothing more than a popularity contest. Rove, Gingrich, and the GOP are going to use every "negative" against whoever the democratic candidate turns out (Just like the dems, move-on.org, etc will use against the Republican).

What you have to decide – who is more electable – Clinton or Obama. Which person has more baggage? (Clinton -hands down). Which person has higher negatives? (Clinton – hands down). Who motivates the republicans to get out and vote? (Clinton – hands down).

As a conservative – I would be more concerned about an Obama campaign than Hillary. Obama is fresh, seemingly genuine/honest, and (so far) run a campaign without special interest dollars. Hillary represents the same-old politics of polarizing, dividing, and angry rhetoric.

That's my humble opinion.

What's Hillary's plan to restore Constitutional government?

When she has one, I'll look at her.

Meanwhile, IMNSHO, I look see her as having identified with her abusers, in classic Stockholm Syndrome fashion. Joining a prayer group with the very same VRWC types who were staging the coup against Clinton is a little bit much, I think.

And having identified with her abusers, she's become their candidate. Hillary won't change the Beltway one iota. That's why Rove is attacking her: He wants what he believes to be the base to rally round her.

Of course, I'd vote for Hillary in the general in a heartbeat. I'd rather be ruled by a sane emperor, like Marcus Aurelius, say, than by an insane one, like Caligula, which is what we have now. Nevertheless, I don't want to be ruled by an emperor or a monarch. I want to be governed by a President.

So, it's because I think Hillary will do little or nothing to arrest the trend of the country toward authoritarianism that she's not my candidate, nor ever will be.

After all, if she wanted to get some cred on restoring Constitutional government, it would have been very simple: She could have brought the Senate to a halt to prevent the passage of the Orwellian "Protect America" Act, preventing FISA from being gutted, along with the Fourth Amendment. Instead, she went on vacation, which I guess was more important to her.

Too bad. Maybe she's learned from her health care disaster in the first Clinton administration that left so many without any coverage. And it would be great to have a woman as President. But I put not gender, but the Constitution first, and I don't believe that Hillary does, either in words, or in action.

No matter what repugnant-cans try, it will not work this time. the "internets' will defeat the ignorance they depend on to get their favorite criminal (aka the gop candidate) elected.

they need the small minded to accomplish their agenda, so if some of you are still supporting them, get therapy or whatever it is you need and make sure a democrat is elected.

only the fate of the world depends on it.

anyway, it's time for a woman to be president, how much worse can she do than the idiot men who have been taking us down the toilet for too, too, long.

women rate in '08!

I work in publishing with a fairly well-rounded group of people, yet ask any question in any setting about politics and you hear either about how broken the system is or how uninterested in politics someone is. We let our leaders define what patriotism means, hear the constant drumbeat of that message through the MSM, talk radio, and opinion pages, and latch onto those beliefs which match our own. In this time of lazy thinking, where polemicism and partisanship pour from the screen as easily as cereal from a box, we lose our way, we forget that democracy is an experiment in action.

Once the people divorce themselves from it's covenant, there is nothing to stop a regime of consistentcy from taking over the levers of power. Sure, the emphasis of priorities shifts between parties, but the money still flows where the influence is found, one hand washes the other, no matter who leads the nation. We have no one to blame but ourselves. Spit your venom where you like, but take a good look in the mirror when you do.

As for me, given a choice between a candidate running on morals versus one running on understanding, I'll take the one who understands the world every time. Republicans have no such candidate, Democrats have a couple. We can no longer acquiesce our desire for morality-based leadership, which by it's very nature is intractable and unresponsive to challenges, to informed, considered, realistic governance. Anyone who is honest about this fact will not dispute that we need a change in the direction of reason, no matter how anathema to our political inclinations it might be.

It's time to abandon the false divisions constructed by the power elites, embrace the peaceful conflict of ideas inherent in our Constitution, and BELIEVE in democracy again.

Another LIE by Carl Rove. According to the Gallup poll, 52% of Americans DISSAPROVED of the job Bush was doing in May, 2004, and yet he went on to win the election (or at least, it was close enough so that he could steal it).

The thing about Carl Rove is that he ALWAYS lies. The only question is figuring out why.

Thanx Rove – for the free publicity!

Of course she can win. She will win.

And Obama is helping here there too. He is in the way of the other candidates getting any traction. His blame tactics do nothing to enhance his status.

So, go ahead Rove – and anyone else. Give Hillary some more publicity and make sure we get to hear about her more than all the other candidates put together!

Wrong. Clinton and Gore cut hundreds of millions of government spending in 1993, which took a modest recovery and turned it into the roaring economy of the 90s, resulting in a budget surplus that the Repubs promptly lost.

Alan Greenspan, however, IS responsible for slowing the economy down in the late 90s, blaming phantom, non-existent inflation fears for raising interest rates until, indeed, the economy tank.

Try again.

So we'll conclude that not only does she not have success and financial responsibility, but she has no experience budgeting to avoid a deficit.

Mitt Romney is a flip-flopping liar. Hillary's husband BALANCED THE BUDGET while in office. The Repubs have destroyed a budget surplus, and replaced it with the biggest deficit in HISTORY.

Sounds like you don't know much about financials yourself.

That's right, Sternberg. Anyone, like you, want to laugh at her "vast, right-wing conspiracy?" The one that got us President Howdy Doody, Criminal Cheney, the Iraq war, the Constitution turned off, the rich richer with tax breaks, etc. etc. etc.

Now, your comment smacks of a scared little boy who doesn't want his mama elected president.

Get over it, kid. A big "girl" is about to become president.

And if Karl Rove isn't obsessed with Hillary Clinton, then he must be in love with her. He talks about her all the time.

Sounds to me like a little high school girl type of conceit on her part.

Mr. Can't Write His Own Text doesn't have a snowball's chance in Hades of becoming the nominee. You said second tier, not sixth.

And just think how her husband will do campaigning for her. Didn't Bill have about the most effective election machine in Democrat history? Can you imagine Rove et al skewered by TWO Clintons at once?

Priceless. These two ain't Gore *or* Kerry.

Why can't the democrats choose an electable candidate? Any one BUT Hillary on the Democrat side is a gauranteed victor. However if Hillary is the candidate I fear this is going to be a repeat of the '04 election.

More of the Divide and Conquer tactic brought to you by RasRoven.

..AND WHO DO YOU THINK PAID HIS SALARY AND GAVE HIM COMPUTERS AND ALL THOSE OTHER TOYS TO DO HIS WORK? ALL OF US...SAY IT AGAIN....ALL OF US.

WHAT A JOKE!
