I am trulley amazed at the spin going on here about Hillary Clinton.

[William769]

If it's not about Campaign contribution, it about how many campaign contrbutions by how many people (who cares money talks & bullshit walks) or right wing talking points from the 90's!

George Bush watch out, some people are trying to outspin you!

1. I just heard a significant amount of spin right now on the radio

about how the Democratic field has suddenly become "so tight" and that because McCain and Hillary travel with large entourages, Big Teevee politics has finally come to Iowa.

6. Good for Her!

Money is money, and all Candidates will need money for this election.

9. Money comes with strings attached.

[juno jones]

12. yes it does...

...and money from citicorp, goldman sachs, et al is dirty money, possibly even blood money. I will not vote for her because she is too beholden to those who screw us.

7. Damn,.... Nice work, Skid

--- That list scares the hell out of me. With no more than one or two exceptions, I don't think any of those contributors would be supporting a presidential candidate who intends to do the sorts of things I want to see done. And those Wall Street contributors suggest to me that Social Security will again be under "privatization attack" in a theoretical Clinton administration. Jesus Christ!

[William769]

10. "Social Security will again be under "privatization attack" in a theoretical Clinton administration"

No thats good. :eyes:

8. Thank you. I was wondering about that.

2. i'm having a hard time putting this together

What exactly are you saying? That people are overselling Clinton's lead in the money primary because more people are writing checks for Obama?

4. no.

What I am saying is the Clinton haters are getting delusional!

If Obama is getting alot of checks good for him! I hope all our candidates raise alot of money. But some posts are really fucking stupid.

11. Hillary Clinton is the corporate, DLC candidate.

She's too far to the right. I don't see how that can be read as a "right-wing attack from the 90's".
