Do you think the Clintons like the game too much?

[Onlooker]

Let me start by saying I really don't dislike Clinton. But, her transparent call to seat the delegates of Michigan and Florida, the clever way her campaign brought up race in the election, her occasional and clever use of gender, the hardball tactics used in Nevada, and so on strike me as too dishonest. It seems to me Obama and Edwards are doing far less than Clinton in terms of playing us. It's as if the Clintons are applying the kind of tactics that Republicans applied against Bill Clinton, Gore, and Kerry. Should she win, I'm sure she will Swiftboat the Swiftboaters, but there is something very unseemly about her campaign, even if it gets her elected President. Then again, the last 2 elections, as well as the impeachment of Bill Clinton, have shown that scorched earth politics works and the alternative does not. Still, I don't like it.

1. It is the water she and Bill swim in, they cannot be any other way. Bite the heads off babies to

win. In "The Crying Game" it is their nature, they cannot help it.

If she wins the nomination and the General Election, MoveOn, Kos, DU, Howard Dean and the rest of the people that built this rejuvenation of the party that brought her to power will be dismissed. She will consolidate power around her the same as Bush.

3. Call to seat delegates= right to vote for those states. I want a candidate who respects

my right to vote - especially after the two Johns who didn't even bother to say a thing in 4 years.
And yes, they like campaigning - and it shows. Not a problem for me.

4. Oh, come on, you surely see why she's doing it, don't you?

Think she would call to seat the delegates if Obama took most of them?

6. The whole country is begining to ask that question

Bush has proven ego can be a dangerous thing

7. Well said.

That's where I'm at, as well, with it all.

8. It's the power

the ability to be able to strike out at their enemies that they love and they will stop at nothing to get back in power, even if it means dividng this party over matters of race.

9. Yup. I just hope the American people see through and reject those tactics before it's too late.

If Hill is our nominee, the race is going to be ugly, ugly, ugly, and we all know that the uglier the politics are, the less turnout we have. Hill's anything goes tactics disgust a lot of voters, and that's bad for us as a party, and bad for our democracy, too.
