Benson!

Believe it or not, the woman on the far right is supposedly a Hillary impersonator:

I could see that

Curt1s Stephens, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:02 (eighteen years ago)

You're right, but the way HRC describes her involvement makes it very hard to refute it any other way.

No, I know. I meant it was the weakest part of the Obama memo for this very reason.

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:02 (eighteen years ago)

she can tell people she told bill anything during his term that he did wrong was a bad idea and no one can refute it. HOW CONVENIENT

sinbad looks weird there

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:08 (eighteen years ago)

I don't think that's Sinbad.

Or as he's known to his friends, "Walter Oakes".

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:15 (eighteen years ago)

Sinbad speaks

This is brutal: The comic Sinbad mocks Hillary's claims that their trip to Bosnia together was dangerous.

"I think the only 'red-phone' moment was: 'Do we eat here or at the next place.'"

(via a gleeful Obama campaign)

(via ben smith at politico)

Mark Clemente, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:40 (eighteen years ago)

oh no, Sinbad's gonna start being ACTUALLY funny? This is a new paradigm.

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:43 (eighteen years ago)

More from Sinbad:

In her Iowa stump speech, Clinton also said, "We used to say in the White House that if a place is too dangerous, too small or too poor, send the First Lady."

Say what? As Sinbad put it: "What kind of president would say, 'Hey, man, I can't go 'cause I might get shot so I'm going to send my wife...oh, and take a guitar player and a comedian with you.'"

jaymc, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:46 (eighteen years ago)

Most Democrats have not been heard from at the polls. We have all been impressed by the turnout for this year’s primaries — clearly both candidates have excited and engaged the party’s membership — but, even so, turnout for primaries and caucuses is notoriously low. It would be shocking if 30 percent of registered Democrats have participated.

Is it me or is this not a bald-faced lie...? I believe its noted somewhere upthread that voting in the primaries in several states has EXCEEDED the number of Dem votes cast in the previous election.

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:48 (eighteen years ago)

Sinbad lolz

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:50 (eighteen years ago)

turnout for primaries and caucuses is notoriously low.

So... "I think people of Ohio very clearly said it should be me." (top of the ticket) is BS too, since only 30% have participated, right?

StanM, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

This is too easy, Clinton campaign. Please try to find arguments that can't possibly be used against you for once.

StanM, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 17:59 (eighteen years ago)

Supporters of Sen. Clinton also worry about young voters, male and female, who have turned out in large numbers for Sen. Obama. "Young students for Obama could stay home; that's one reason I am so furious at them," says Fran Reiter, former deputy mayor of New York and a Clinton supporter. "They are all excited about him, and they don't have any staying power. If Obama doesn't get the nomination, do they get angry again and crawl back into their apathetic hole?"

This is so ass-backwards. The sense of entitlement among HRC and her supporters regardless of the effect on the party annoys the hell out of me.

Michael White, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:03 (eighteen years ago)

basically they're saying too few democrats have voted. but the ones who like obama: too many.

dmr, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:05 (eighteen years ago)

Maybe HRC supporters are stingy and want to use their "president clinton" merchandise again. (or they've all still got their "president clinton" tattoos)

StanM, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:05 (eighteen years ago)

Is she going to pick Tipper Gore as her running-mate?

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:11 (eighteen years ago)

Silda Spitzer.

The wronged spouse ticket '08!

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:21 (eighteen years ago)

from Politico:

Nancy Pelosi tells Boston TV that a Clinton-Obama or Obama-Clinton ticket is "impossible."

"I think that the Clinton administration has fairly ruled that out by proclaiming that Senator McCain would be a better Commander in Chief than Obama. I think that either way is impossible," she said.

Also: "Nothing ever resolves itself -- it has to be resolved by some outside forces," she said.

Simon H., Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:29 (eighteen years ago)

Also: "Nothing ever resolves itself -- it has to be resolved by some outside forces," she said.

StanM, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:32 (eighteen years ago)

pelosi abt to drop hammer on clinton campaign?

jhøshea, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:36 (eighteen years ago)

Does Pelosi really have any more authority to tell Clinton what to do than Howard Dean does, though?

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:38 (eighteen years ago)

xpost: Unless the hammer is off the table, just like that Bush/Cheney impeachment :-/

StanM, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:38 (eighteen years ago)

i think she just did

xps

gff, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:38 (eighteen years ago)

other than saying they "disagree with her" the clinton campaign hasn't responded to the ferarro thing at all. obama campaign saying ferarro's comment demonstrates a "wink and nod" strategy of suggestive racial statements made by the clinton campaign.

elmo argonaut, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:40 (eighteen years ago)

well Pelosi said that the "dream ticket" was impossible, did she say something else?

akm, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:40 (eighteen years ago)

Pelosi can't do shit re: Clinton gimme a break.

member of obama's LGBT group resigned over an email talking shit about the clintons

"I think that the Clinton administration has fairly ruled that out by proclaiming that Senator McCain would be a better Commander in Chief than Obama. I think that either way is impossible," she said.

i.e. she just reiterated the Obama camp's characterization of Clinton's last round of attacks re: c-in-c readiness and experience

gff, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:45 (eighteen years ago)

Nell Carter would make a great VP choice for Hillary

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:46 (eighteen years ago)

She ded.

Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:47 (eighteen years ago)

yeah I know

Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:47 (eighteen years ago)

other than saying they "disagree with her" the clinton campaign hasn't responded to the ferarro thing at all. obama campaign saying ferarro's comment demonstrates a "wink and nod" strategy of suggestive racial statements made by the clinton campaign.

Obama trying to seize control of the "umbrage advantage" that's been so critical to the 2008 Democratic primary.

Clinton/Zombie Nell Carter 08

suzy, Tuesday, 11 March 2008 18:48 (eighteen years ago)

clinton supporter/PA gov ed rendell, on meet the press: "But, Tim, you run against uncommitted, that's the toughest election to win. I'd rather run against an opponent anytime than against uncommitted, and Hillary Clinton got 55 percent of the vote against uncommitted."

this guy's gotta be fucking kidding, right?
