4. Florida Democrats
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 12:06 AM by youngharry
Many women who say they are Democrats for Hillary are really Republicans trying to sway all women away from Obama.

Trust me, I know first hand of these tactics that go back at least to 1970 when many Republicans re-registered as Democrats and then volunteered for the Democrats campaign only to be able to destroy it from within. I would get all these women's names and check their registration. Guarantee they are either Republicans or recent switchers from Repub to Demo. The tricks have spread throughout the country

Start with the lady from NY, Ms. Christian.

Check her registration

Bank it.

It's all about propaganda, Rovian tricks.

8. The first time I saw this vid yesterday
I thought this woman was an imposter, because of the hat and the big, dark sunglasses. All the better to avoid being recognized as an RNC staffer.

OTOH, I suspect that Ms. Christian either is a performance artist or suffers from dementia.

16. another poster posted the other lady's public donation listing...
where it showed she had donated $200 to Hillary and works as a waitress in Manhattan. So she's real--which is really sad, when you think about it. (And because she and I have the same last name, too--though I'm certain she's not a relative!)

That $200 was likely more than she could really afford, and now that it's clear it was a complete waste, she's probably going through a breakdown of sorts.

11. So they'll be fine with a 3rd Bush Term. Which I gather HRC promised them as well.

17. Do you really think the Clintons care about the Democratic party?
When Bill was President, some of the most Republican policies were pursued and signed under his watch, such as NAFTA, GATT, banking deregulation and on and on.

Since then, he's been hob-nobbing with George HW Bush around the globe.

Clinton was probably the most Republican president we've had in 80 years. It would be more of the same if Hillary would have been president.

30. As I pointed out someplace else yesterday...
We'll get to see what Hillary is really made of.

Class act in the end?

Or Power-hungry fruitcake bent only on her own agenda?



I honestly hope she shows the better side of herself and beseeches her supporters to support (and vote for) Obama just as she would want Obama supporters to vote for her if circumstances had been reversed...

We shall see....

10. Nothing to see here
Just some of Rush Limbaugh's crazy aunts, girlfriends, and any other women he can pull out his ass to try to divide the Democratic party. I don't believe for one minute that Hillary's supporters will vote McCain in the fall. Hell, I believe a lot of Republicans won't vote for McCain. He treats his fellow Republican senators like Naomi Campbell treats her personal assistants. Arlen Specter and Chuck Hagel have called out McCain on his foreign policy. One of his campaign advisers quit because he won't campaign against Obama.

Trust me, NO ONE likes McCain.:puke:

13. Hard to imagine women supporting McCain
especially when they are basically saying they want Roe v. Wade overturned.

These two are Republicans for Clinton.

29. They are too old to care about Roe V Wade
That threat is useless against some of these post child bearing years Clintonites because they don't care about the country or other people, they just care that it's Hillary's turn according to them. There is some kind of weird personal investment in it, maybe a little too hooked on the past when women were even more disrespected than they are now. I dunno.

33. It makes me wonder if these same women would vote for Phyllis Schlafly
or even Condi Rice. . .just to get a woman in office.

I don't blame women for being impatient...when they are the majority of the population, they have every right to wonder why there hasn't been a woman president. But they should be asking why we've only had straight white men as presidents - not blaming an interracial man for holding them down.

15. Those aren't Democrats, those don't support Hillary.

Those are the kind of women who think Anne Coulter and Michelle Malkin are leading feminist voices, and think "supporting" Hillary is some kind of joke.

Although they are female, and outspoken, the problem with calling Coulter and Malkin-clones of this pattern "feminist voices", is that the pattern is not intelligent.

I don't think it's fair to identify Hillary with Coulter this way. This is the same kind of wrongness that would identify Obama with Farrakhan.

I think we should defend Hillary from these fuckers, not play their game.

18. And when these feminists lose us our right over our own bodies we will have proven
we have come a long way baby.

We are now as stubborn and stupid as powerful arrogant men.

Should you really want to "count all the votes"

....might I suggest you start with an attempt to count the popular votes in the caucus states. A glaring oversight in the Clinton logic that has shown to those of us who have supported her and her husband for almost 20 years that power can and does corrupt even our heroes.

No wonder they want to vote for McShame they have no shame.

19. Because the next CLEAR choice to Clinton is McCain
These women are idiotic and just lend weight to the notion of having to take a test to prove you are intelligent enough to vote.

When this whole mess is over, I'm sure Clinton will urge her supporters (although not willingly, I bet) to vote for Obama. Either that, or she will run as an independent... maybe with Lieberman as her running mate.

People need to get over themselves and vote intelligently rather than reactionary... of course, I'm sure the world would be a much better place if this were to happen.

21. Ploy
This is an RNC tactic that I have been seeing in a lot of places. For example they are going on line and posting things like. I am a life long "Democrat" but John McCain....It's simply a scare tactic and a transparent ploy.These people are either vile, crazy, or both..I could go on forever!!!

24. Dumb asses. If McCain is an Option for you - YOU are not NOW and Never have been - a Democrat
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 08:07 AM by Ferd Berfle
A switch from Clinton to McCain is absurd - politically, ideologically, rationally.

IF McCain is an option for you:

- You are the same sociopathic Ideologue that still supports Bush/Cheney
- You are Irrational
- You are probably an Authoritarian as described here: http://home.cc.umanitoba.ca/~altemey/
- You probably saw through Hillary's "democratic" disguise to her DLC Republican-lite core - and liked what you saw.
- You are willfully ignorant - "What's the matter with Kansas?"
- You are capable of ignoring, or approved of, Hillary's Rovian tactics and her Faustian deals with Murdock and Mellon Scaife
- You like triangulation, distortions and attempts to change the rules when you can' win buy the one you agreed to.



Hillary supporters that are actually Democrats and hold to Democratic ideals will vote for and support Obama just as Obama supporters would have done for Hillary if the situation was reversed.

This election was the Clinton's to Loose and they did.

25. From out of the blue
I just had a scary thought. Call me stupid for taking so long to catch on, but I think I just figured out their game. When the rigged results of the 2008 election come in, and McBush is the "winner" the media, and their fellow-travelers are going to have an excuse. They are going to say, Well it must have been all of those former Hillary supporters going to McBush that gave him the "victory". The media will not have to explain anything, Hillary gets to say I told ya so, and the Repukes get four more years to destroy the nation. It's a win-win-win situation for them. Think about it!!!! :argh: Just take two seconds to consider this.....

32. Repug ops and shit-stirrers...nothing more.
I spend as much time worrying about these phony cretins as I do getting hit by falling space-junk. They only exist because cameras are there.

Otherwise, they are inconsequential but desperate Rush Operation KKKaos minions with too much time on their hands.
