Hillary Clinton renewed her call for party unity behind Barack Obama during the Democrats weekly radio address yesterday. Clinton was asked to give the address following the Dems big week in Denver by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. She hit home stumping points for Barack about how his presidency along with a Democrat-controlled Congress would revitalize the economy and lead to more affordable college education. Clinton said that the gap between Democrats and Republicans "could not be wider."
Hillary's name is naturally being tossed around quite a bit since Friday's announcement of Sarah Palin as the second woman in history to be a major party's VP choice. The NY Times has two articles today about how women, particularly Hillary supporters, are reacting to the pick. The Week in Review talks to some of the most stung Clinton supporters. These include two women who teared up during Hillary's speech on Tuesday yet refused to even watch Barack's on Thursday (and instead turned to the uplifting movie The Squid and the Whale). Despite not seeing his speech, one Clinton supporter felt confident that Obama "is not good for women" and "doesn't have a message.
Maybe a picture could be worth more than a few thousand of Hillary's words in changing the minds of the most devoted within the "sisterhood of the traveling pantsuit." In the following video, Hillary shows that she is so committed to party unity that she'll even snub a kiss from her husband in order to embrace the Democratic candidate.
Maybe a kiss from Bubba counts as "more of the same."




If Obama had chosen Hilary - would anyone care to guess who McCain would have chosen?
what the L's wrong with that headline?

Condi Rice

I am a diehard Hillary Rodham Clinton voter. I am pleased to state and share that I am voting for John McCain and Sarah Palin in November.
John McCain's running mate Sarah Palin brings experience, proven hands on projects that have already shown her desire and excitement for "CHANGE" and "HOPE" for all Americans, proven hands on experience in addressing the ENERGY CRISIS and truly help people in need. Sarah is a hard worker, very willing to take on whoever to get the job done, and I done like Sarah's eager drive very much and she is the person that I would like in Washington - working for me.
"YOU GO GIRL" "YOU GO GIRL" "YOU GO GIRL"
VOTE - JOHN MCCAIN / SARAH PALIN
"A VOTE FOR 'CHANGE' AND 'HOPE' IN AMERICA"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Barack Hussein Obama repeatedly disrespected Hillary Rodham Clinton and even said from his own mouth that Hillary Rodham Clinton would be on anyone's short list for Vice President and Obama NEVER contacted Hillary. I can't trust a person like that nor can I vote for a person like that.
ENOUGH OF BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA.
ENOUGH OF MICHELLE OBAMA.
ENOUGH OF REV. WRIGHT.
ENOUGH OF REZKO.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
After taking a very close look at John McCain and Sarah Palin -- they are a team. The team that I want in Washington Working for Me.
I truly believe that John McCain and Sarah Palin will work endlessly to address the concerning so dearly and close to all America's. With this team - I truly believe that the ENERGY CRISIS will be addressed, the job market improved, housing, the war, education, etc. focused on and addressed.
Hillary Rodham Clinton is the right president for America. However, it did not happen. Then, Barack Hussein Obama failed to do what his mouth spoke of.
However, Sarah Palin, is an a person with lots of energy, drive, hands on hard worker, that appears willing to deal with whoever to get the job done and I am very happy to VOTE FOR JOHN MCCAIN AND SARAH PALIN.
AMERICA TRULY NEED THIS TEAM IN WAHSINGTON --- GETTING AMERICA BACK ON TRACK! John McCain and Sarah Palin "CAN GET THE JOB DONE!"
GO----JOHN MCCAIN / SARAH PALIN
GO----JOHH MCCAIN / SARAH PALIN
"TRUE CHANGE AND HOPE FOR AMERICA"
"TRUE CHANGE AND HOPE FOR AMERICA"
"TRUE CHANGE AND HOPE FOR AMERICA"

It's DISGUSTING to see how phoney this Hillary POS is.
NOW she's all smiles and hugs with Obama. BEFORE she was slinging mud at him left & right and acting like the true c*nt that she is, refusing to step aside even WAY AFTER it was painfully obvious she had no shot at being nominated.
American politics is a f*cking CIRCUS. I hope you all shrivel up & die.
"After taking a very close look at John McCain and Sarah Palin -- they are a team. The team that I want in Washington Working for Me."
You probably had to stick your head way up into your own azzhole in order to get "that very close look".

If you were representative of hillary's supporters, she would weep.
Blondshag,
Are you nuts? Palin is anti-abortion! Don't wory about Hillary -- she's getting ready for 2012. Meantime, we had better get a Dem in. If Obama doesn't do it for you, write Hillary in.
Looks like Blondshag really used to spam for Hillary and now is doing McCain/Palin.
Choice quote - "I agree with Magic Johnson, Barack Obama is a ROOKIE!!!!" or "Barack Hussein Obama NEEDS to resign from his Senate seat - immediately."
Gotta love stupid people.
It looks like that "huge chasm" between the Democrats and republicans is really just a gash.
Blondshag, go ahead and hand over the keys to your uterus to the Republicans if you want, but get your zombie propaganda style outta here. Your post looks like some kind of cult chant, and that's not the kind of woman a real feminist -- or someone who cares about women's rights -- aspires to be. Congratulations! you're a Stepford Republican!
These Hilary supporters who are voting for McCain make me sick to my stomach, and are the reason I'm a registered Independent.
