<i>worth repeating

the whole clintons have baggage / she's polarizing / etc. issue may not be "fair," but it wasn't invented for election season. it's just a fact!</i>

I'm still amazed that so many democrats could be unconcerned with or unaware of this aspect of Clinton as a candidate.

It could also be really painful to have these 90s partisan media-narratives brought back and the culture war debated indirectly around her persona. I can't see ever voting for McCain but the Dems might deserve the lose the GE on principal if they choose to reignite the Clintons conflict with the "attack machine."

SUSA has Clinton up 17 in OH, her lead due entirely to women - http://politicalwire.com/archives/2008/02/12/surveyusa_clinton_maintains_doubledigit_lead_in_ohio.html

*sigh*

how many of those women are voting for Hillary because of what she symbolizes, I wonder

Shakey Mo Kristol

I was making a joke about daria's complaints about Obama/symbolism on one of the other threads deej

(btw there are few people I loathe more than Kristol, who reminds me of the prototypical smug rich Jewish kid at the bar mitzvahs I attended as a child)

'prototypical'

YAH I HOPE HE JEW-DIES

This is Rush Limbaugh's way of standing down in his war of words against McCain?

were the Jews you knew all rich or only the ones who had bar mitzvahs? were they all smug or only the ones who were rich?

and what about the christians' bar mitzvahs?

aren't all jews rich?

i think only the smug ones?

some are rich some wear funny hats

aren't all jews rich?

Some of us are.

Define "rich."

I am Jewish. Some of my Hebrew school classmates were richer and more conservative and smugger and more assholish than others.

wow this has a lot to do with primaries guys

jewmaries

Some of my Hebrew school classmates were richer and more conservative and smugger and more assholish than others.

in a prototypical way

Are you saying discrimination against Jews isn't worthy of discussion?

Oy vey. We already need a new thread to get back on track.

VA exits - Obama ties Hillary among whites, wins Seniors

guys lets go back to the old thread

Women voters: Obama 58, Cliton 42

Women voters: Obama 58, Cliton 42

so uh this is when people will be saying was the beginning of the end for hillary?

ahahahaha

she will hold out until Ohio and TX no matter what

yah but theres a good chance shes fukd right now

she is up 17 in oh

not for long

(in polls obv)

fun parlor game from ambinder:

To the Secret Service (technically to the WHCA), President Bush is Trailblazer, Laura Bush is Tempo, HRC is Evergreen, Bill Clinton is Eagle, Dick Cheney is Angler, and Barack Obama is Renegade.

John McCain respects the Service but has said he is wary of their presence. On the trail, he sometimes has security around him, and those tough veteran buddies and his big burly advance guys provide a nice circle of protection..

But the United States Secret Service has not yet been authorized by the Department of Homeland Security to provide him with a detail, according to a Secret Service spokesman.

Opening up a can of worms here, but when they do, what should his code name be?
