Let's nominate HRC, build a bridge back to the 20th century!!!

[Nimrod2005]

Nice Senator Obama, brilliant!

[Dogmudgeon]

1. And Teddy can extend it back to 1970

Obama will hamstring himself with all the openings he's giving to The Eeevil Hillary.

--p!

[aquart]

2. It's so wonderful that you have someone to feed you dialog.

Much simpler than having to think for yourself.

[rodeodance]

11. Lapping it up.

[southern_dem]

31. Yeah, because no

Clinton supporters post talking points on here all day long. Come on, there are TP spouters on both sides.

[Yossariant]

3. Let's nominate Barack and build another bridge to nowhere

[rodeodance]

7. serious--that is a great campaign slogen--I am going to pouch it from you.

[rodeodance]

9. OBAMA-THE BRIDGE TO NOWHERE!

[rodeodance]

10. correction: Obama-The bridge to the VISION THINGY!!

[Yossariant]

15. Optometrist?

We never know What Obama Really Means

[Beacool]

25. Damn, I was going to write the same thing!!!

You took the wind out of my sail! LOL!!!!

[Maven]

28. LOL.

[depakid]

4. That's actually the Clinton's greatest appeal

If the US slides into recession- or worse, people will be pining for the Clinton years. Never mind that they sowed the seeds for much of what has come to pass.

The vast majority of Americans don't know a lick about economic policy- but they can and will make associations to what they experienced in the 90's.

On the other hand, Obama has no credentials whatsoever in economics- he's an untested and unproven quantity, who's never governed and, unlike McCain has limited experience in the Senate.

Not exactly something his campaign would want to draw attention to.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

5. won't happen.

If we relive the Clinton years, Bill would pull some other stupid move that would energize the opponents, paralyze government, and distract us from serious issues. And then, in a reflexive response to Bill's behavior, Americans then elect another BushBot, probably even worse than the Wth. Eight more years of Bushisms would be totally unacceptable.

[shaniqua6392]

8. Sometimes I do long for those days.

Somehow we were able so save a significant amount of money even though we earned less. And when Clinton was in office, we had a baby and I was able to stay home with her for several years and we still were not struggling as hard as we are now with both of us working. Now we just live paycheck to paycheck and can't save a dime because we are taxed to death and everything we buy costs a fortune.

[rodeodance]

12. Obama thinks he in into the future but he keeps bringing up the past.

[Nimrod2005]

21. Sick and wrong....YUK!

[rodeodance]

6. First Obama wants to take us back to Reagan, then 196os-now he has the AUDASITY to

to whin about clinton!

[Perry Logan]

13. The 90's were sure better than what we have now.

[Adelante]

14. I love that line

:)

[Freida5]

16. I would not mind taking a "step back" if it erased the damage of the Bush years before we move

forward to solve the important problems we face. Obama is certainly not a bridge builder. He does not have the experience.

[Nimrod2005]

22. Welcome to DU

[TexasProgresive]

17. Since Dumbo took us back to the 19th century

We need a bridge to get us to the 20th.

[meegbear]

18. I'd rather be here now ...

than relive that nightmare of peace and prosperity. :scared:

[Rockholm]

19. I'll take the 20th over the 21st at this point.

So far, the 2000's have pretty much sucked. Thanks Bush.

[Byronic]

20. That's a Bill Clinton v Bob Dole line

that Obama is quite cleverly using there.

Clinton's 'Bridge to the 21st century' beat Bob Dole's nostalgic 'Bridge to the 20th century' back in 1996.

[elixir]

23. I can't wait until HRC addresses the "bridge" comment. She'll take him apart w/ the facts.

Big mistake Obama.

[suston96]

24. Bridge back to the 20th Century? What a dumbass statement....

If someone builds a bridge from the 20th Century to the 21st Century like the Clintons did, there already IS a bridge "back to the 20th Century..."

Ya see, bridges go in two directions and......uh, never mind. It's a difficult concept meant only for bridge engineers.....

[Texas_Kat]

26. Actually, he seems to crave approval from the 60's-- his plan is to reinvent Camelot, right?

[cobalt1999]

27. Hillary should steal that and use it for herself.

Many people would LOVE to go back to the booming 1990's. Government surpluses, growing job market, skyrocketing stocks, respected on the international front.

If I really thought Hillary would bring all that back, I'd be a much stronger supporter.

[Tom Joad]

29. Hillary! Murdoch LOVES you, he truly does.

Can't forget what Bill did for him with the telecommunications act. It's common folks like that she can count on.

[AtomicKitten]

30. Obama's political jujitsu is strong, grasshopper.
