Maybe she shouldn't have hired Mark Penn (whose mentor is Dick Morris--ratbag Repub pundit and strategist who visited with whores during his "work" for the Clintons during Clinton's presidency.) Maybe she should have had women run her campaign instead of having their names on her campaign staff but using men to run the campaign?

We watched fascinated the debasement of principles of our Democratic Party by leadership and worn out delegates----- the unprecedented atmosphere of controlled power. The DNC leadership stultifying a negation of all that democracy ought to mean was witnessed by millions of viewers, in the U.S and around the world.<BR/> <BR/>It is quite impossible to rig an election for one candidate Barrack Obama in a democracy against a stronger candidate Hillary Clinton selected by over 18 million primary voters nationwide as qualified to become our next Commander in Chief and get away with it without consequences. The DNC Chairman Howard Dean and selected committee members/delegates did, the spectacle that history will record is that our voices and 18 million votes had no value. <BR/> <BR/>Now the DNC Chairman Howard Dean and Barack Obama et al sends a clarion call for "unity" for all democrats to unite to support his candidate Barrack Obama. No man has the power to direct another to vote this way or that , it is reminiscent of tactics used by 'benevolent dictators' in third world countries. Chairman Howard Dean needs to resign his position at the DNC.<BR/> <BR/>We who elected Hillary Clinton as our presidential candidate in the primaries remain a civilizing influence in the midst of a brutalizing political process. We know our worth and power, and owning the power to control our own destiny.<BR/> <BR/>"No self respecting woman should wish or work for the success of a party that ignores her self .' ” - Susan B.

My heart goes out to Hillary Clinton as she has to travel with him, stand on stage with him, endorse him and pretend to feel good about this candidate of no substance and convince others to want to vote for him. She is one tough lady! She keeps her word which is more than Obama would have done had the tables been turned. Her speech was sincere, on point and made sense; his was glib, filled with slogans and basically insincere. His final comment at Unity, "we are not going to just change America but change the world" left my blood boiling. That kind of stupid rhetoric is not going to win over Hillary supporters, but he doesn't worry too much, he can always blame Bill and Hillary and kick them around a few more times if he doesn't win the general election...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-71409119572193790772008-06-30T00:59:00.000-07:002008-06-30T00:59:00.000-07:00Dear Marc,I watch the ongoing horror, not through ...Dear Marc,<BR/><BR/>I watch the ongoing horror, not through my fingers, but through my tears.

Its corpse rots in the summer sun for anyone with eyes to see. It is denied a proper funeral by party leaders and Obama supporters who hope their calls for unity will touch the naïve hearts of those who deny themselves the truth. <BR/><BR/>Chicago-style politics instead of the will of the people have decided the outcome of the party’s election process. Clinton victories include AR, AZ, CA, FL, MI, NH, NV, NJ, NY, MA, PA, PR,SD,TN and WV, but the neo-Dems have forced the end of her campaign and hooked their wagon to the unvetted Obama star. Clinton won the popular vote and earned more primary votes for President than any Democratic candidate in this country’s history, but the new DNC will have none of it. Before its Denver convention, it has decided to consolidate its party machinery with Obama’s campaign and move its operations from Washington DC to Chicago. Thus, the convention is nothing more than a celebration not of the party but of Barack Hussein Obama and whatever he believes. <BR/><BR/>This is about much more than Hillary Clinton; it is about country, principles and beliefs, and what will happen to that we hold most dear if this nation elects another untested incompetent to the highest office in the land. This is about the role of our leaders and their responsibility to citizens in a democracy. <BR/><BR/>I am writing it down lest we forget the actions and words of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse of FDR’s Democratic Party- Kennedy, Kerry, Dean and Brazile- who were once trusted keepers of the flame and who used that trust to foist an inexperienced, untested candidate on the American people in these serious times:<BR/><BR/>Donna Brazile:"My momma taught me to play by the rules and respect those rules. My mother taught me, and I'm sure your mother taught you, that when you decide to change the rules, middle of the game, end of the game, that is referred to as cheatin’.” (http://ascrivenerslament.blogspot.com/2008/05/donna-brazile-insults-whites-hispanics.html)<BR/><BR/>Howard Dean:“I need them to say who they’re for starting now. They really do need to do that. We cannot give up two or three months of active campaigning and healing time. We‘ve got to know who are nominee is. There’s no reason not to know after the last primary on June 3rd.” (http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/04/top_hillary_fundrasers_rip_int.php<BR/><BR/>John Kerry: "Barack Obama can be, will be and should be the next president of the United States…. I believe more than anyone else, Barack Obama can help our country turn the page and get America moving by uniting and ending the division we have faced…. Some have suggested in this campaign that Barack is guilty of raising 'false hopes.'... My friends, the only charge that rings false is the one that tells you not to hope for a better tomorrow.” (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22590831/)<BR/><BR/>Ted Kennedy: “I feel change in the air…. I believe there is one candidate who has extraordinary gifts of leadership and character, matched to the extraordinary demands of this moment in history. I am proud to stand here today and offer my help, my voice, my energy and my commitment to make Barack Obama the next President of the United States…. With Barack Obama, we will turn the page on the old politics of misrepresentation and distortion. With Barack Obama, we will close the book on the old politics of race against race, gender against gender, ethnic group against ethnic group, and straight against gay….I know that he’s ready to be President on day one….” http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/01/28/edward_kennedys_endorsement_of_barack_obama)<BR/><BR/>Remember in November these keepers of the flame and all the others we foolishly trusted; never forget that the untimely death of FDR’s DNC was deliberate and orchestrated. Democratic leaders worked together to circumvent the will of the people and empower an inexperienced candidate with questionable friends and associates. It must be remembered that others in high position allowed it, did nothing to stop it, and by their silence condoned it. We must be diligent and never forget that there are forces that want to dilute or even dissipate our collective power. <BR/><BR/>The neo-Dems think we’re fools who will eventually do their bidding. Remember in autumn the events of June 3rd and the voters of both Michigan and Florida, administer tough love, and remind the neo-Dems that actions have consequences. <BR/><BR/>The neo-Dems do not deserve nor have they earned both Congress and the Office of the Presidency. Like the Republicans, they cannot be trusted. We must have a President who will ensure the checks and balances of power that are founders valued. <BR/><BR/>Remember in November; it is time to take our country back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-79706740931773438962008-06-29T19:53:00.000-07:002008-06-29T19:53:00.000-07:00Hillary and Bill Clinton cannot fix stupidHillary and Bill Clinton cannot fix stupidAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-24029472076166816572008-06-29T19:52:00.000-07:002008-06-29T19:52:00.000-07:00OMG!!

If they proceed as Obama wants them to by denying Hillary a place on the ballot, then they get loud demonstrations showing party dis-unity. However, if they go against Obama's instincts (fears) and put Hillary's name on the ballot, they can be seen to be fair and just in the nomination process. The big "but" for the DNC is that to do the latter does risk that their favored son is not the eventual nominee - that they actually see democracy at work in real time at the convention. This probably feels like a catch 22 for them -damned if they do and damned if they don't. Their decision wil tell us a lot about the DNC - are they robust in their belief that the democratic process will produce the "right" result, or are they so frightened to go against their annointed candidate, that they will throw over their own principles to ensure his nomination?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3820377390281203107.post-19394612264541657622008-06-29T08:33:00.000-07:002008-06-29T08:33:00.000-07:00Thanks for reporting the "unity show".

History is already done. America prospered during 92 to 99 and Bill has his foundation that has helped so many around the world. Hillary, as first lady, senator and presidential candidate has done more for us than the selected democratic nominee ever has. There are reasons why we supported Hillary and not Obama. Hillary joining the Obama bandwagon is something she feels she must do to prevent a republican president and getting shafted from the dnc so that she can effectively work for the interests of her state and nation. But, as voters, and I'm not female, we don't want a far right agenda or a far left agenda, especially when we live in a nation that is basically down the middle. So, at this point, no, I will not stay home in November, I will not write in Hillary in November, I WILL vote McCain! With a dem increase in House and Senate, McCain will be forced to work across the aisle in order to get things done. And as far as RvW and SCOTUS picks, well, if the dems are so unified, let them actually BLOCK nominees. Remember, they helped allow John Roberts and Samuel Alito to be on the bench!
