6 thoughts on “How Clinton Could Take the High Road

  1. I can’t but to notice that out of the 5 people on the panel in this clip, then only ones that had anything to say were the 4 white ones… I wonder what was going through the 5th persons mind, the only black person in the room…?

  2. The “black person” is Donna Brazile and I’m sure she’s in full agreement. Unfortunately, she’s become a focus of rage from the rabid anti-Obama Hillary onliners, so maybe she’s pulling her punches a bit. Her blackberry has been inundated with hateful, racist emails for months now (her address has been published by HillaryIs44, Taylor Marsh and others) and she’s been pretty fearless about responding to them. According to a blog that monitors HillaryIs44, she plans on releasing the emails eventually.

  3. I think Donna Brazile was perfectly happy to sit back and watch some white pundits say something sensible about race for a change.

    But Hillary will take the high road just after she’s diagnosed with a terminal illness, i.e. not any time soon.

  4. I agree. It isn’t in her characgter to take the high road. She will say the right things, of course, but she is busy now laying the ground work for Obama’s defeat: promoting the myth of her victimization in order to convince just enought supporters to stay home. The twin lies: she’s ahead in popular votes and therefore deserved the nom ( the nom isn’t determined by popular votes and she doesn’t have amojority) and she’s the champion of the disenfranchised ( the twelve HRC supporters on the DNC committee voted t strip Fl and Mi).

    I don’t know what we can do to defuse the victim complex that is developing amongst her supporters. There seems to be an assumption out there that women are owned a candidate this year. I’m fifty five, a life long feminist and life long Democrat, but I don’t think that other Democrats owe it to me or women to nominate HRC.

  5. I agree with wonkie, she aint got it in her to help anyone but herself. She has run a substandard campaign and the election results thus far reflect it.I don’t understand her latest claims that she has won more votes than Obama, according to realclearpolitics she only has the lead if you include FL. and MI. Obama was not even on the ballot in MI, If you just include FL. Obamas still in the lead. It don’t matter anyway cause we nominate on delegates! I heard her say if she was a republican she would be the nominee! Well she used to be a Goldwater Girl, so maybe she could make that happen, maybe she should get on McSame’s ticket, they would make a good team!

  6. Why isn’t the MSM using her words against her? September 1, 2007: “…Thus, we will be signing pledge to adhere to the DNC approved nominating calendar.” The so-called Four State Pledge.

    Given all the changes in metrics acceptable to the Clinton camp, despite her pledge to support the DNC rules, tells me that her word is simply not good.
