Ha. I said that. Those are my exact words, at least as far as I can recall (it was well over one or two months ago, no?).


Yeah. I have this special thing. It's called a memory. Apparently, you don't have one because, after (insert the time), you are free to call people out with impunity for [insert the charge: stalking, "bitterness", hypocrisy, obsessing over (x), sneering, being too (insert)-centric] while you have all well and good forgotten that you've done the EXACT SAME THING.

Do you know what "wimp" means, you puss?

Who's crying?

Just as we were writing her off (again), just as Barack Obama's momentum surged nationwide (again), just as the polls gave her a good kicking (again) - up stepped Hillary and out came the tears. Again.

Hillary weeping her way to the White House. Pathetic. Come on Obama!

I'm surprised to see you of all people confuse possible correlation for assured causation.

I would be even more surprised if he got your point.

Unlike you, Gopher, I am a qualified English teacher as opposed to an unemployable layabout. I understood the point perfectly as a result. Actually, although I didn't intend to correct him, Kuros was wrong as he very often is; I did not confuse possible correlation with assured causation at all - I merely pointed out that Hillary appears to be attempting to weap her way to the White House. It's extremely cynical but one would expect little better from the Clintons.

Oh, how sad it is to hear that from the higher man.

As long as you admit its appearance, then I suppose there's no real dispute.

From stating the fact of the existence of something, it does not follow that I am attributing any phenomena as assured causation a priori.

Hillary Clinton's campaign manger is out.

From the Wall Street Journal.

Hillary Clinton Replaces
Her Campaign Manager
Associated Press
February 10, 2008 4:55 p.m.

WASHINGTON -- Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton has replaced campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle, naming longtime aide Maggie Williams to the top job.
CAMPAIGN SHAKE-UP



Ms. Solis Doyle announced the shift in an email to the staff on Sunday.

"I have been proud to manage this campaign and prouder still to call Hillary my friend for more than 16 years," Ms. Solis Doyle wrote. "Maggie is a remarkable person and I am confident that she will do a fabulous job."

The move comes a day after rival Barack Obama swept contests in Washington state, Nebraska, Louisiana.

Ms. Solis Doyle said she will serve as a senior adviser to Mrs. Clinton and the campaign, and travel with Mrs. Clinton from time to time.

Ms. Williams will begin assuming the duties of campaign manager this week.

In a statement, Mrs. Clinton praised Ms. Solis Doyle and said she looked forward to her continued advice in the coming months.

"Patti Solis Doyle has done an extraordinary job in getting us to this point -- within reach of the nomination -- and I am enormously grateful for her friendship and her outstanding work," Mrs. Clinton said. "And, as Patti has said, this already has been the longest presidential campaign in history and one that has required enormous sacrifices of everyone and our families.

"I look forward to her continued advice in the months ahead," Mrs. Clinton added.

Both of the examples given in this thread are cheap shots.

This will be interesting.

If Clinton wins, the Democrats will have royally pissed-off black voters. So many Democrats owe favors to the Clintons. I have a feeling that many Superdelegates owe them favors, and would vote Hillary as the winner in the end.

I don't think Obama would want to be VP under Hillary, even if she asked. Not with the way Gore was treated while under Bill. It's public knowledge that Gore was pretty much pigeonholed and snubbed by the Clintons.

This is also another interesting article:

Well, I guess she should lose. How dare she evoke emotion. [/sarcasm off]
