6. She was pretty good..."Fabulous" is the choice for mindless drone partisans
She did a very good job, and probably helped her chances in the Super Tuesday states a great deal.

Who goes around say that she was "fabulous" on a television show? Fanboys and girls of all stripes make me queasy.

18. In this context
Nice try on the implication of homophobia, though. Very above-board. :eyes:

22. I guess when accusations of homophobia are so prevalent and false
Any little thing can touch off a response.

My apologies for the misreading. :hi:

Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 12:24 PM by BlueJac
That must be some kind of joke.


I get sick to my stomach when I see her face.

She belongs on Potato Heads show, "Tweek the Press"

Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 12:26 PM by flpoljunkie

33. Full of awe would actually be "awesome," now and maybe forever diminished in its meaning.
It is an "awesome" loss to the English language. And I don't mean that kindly...

9. improvement over New Hampshire
she looked poised and answered the questions calmly, did not go ballistic over baiting by Russert, the voter that asked
the question where you teared up, voted for Obama. Although I am not a Hillary fan, the MSM will not win points by
brow beating her over the tear episode. We have a president who put us into a war based on faulty intelligence and
has had over a year of vacation while in office and they want to do a political bash over a tear. Wow, what
objective journalism this is.

11. The one part that really stayed with me
was when they were talking about the pardons and some of the Clinton Era scandals and it solidified by belief that we don't need another Clinton in the White House.

She's a savvy lady though, I will give her that.

34. Yeah, that part was sad for us and for her. It is hung around her neck so that her
message will always be marred by it.

She did well in the context of HRC and there were times she sounded very presidential. The pardons thing was unfortunate and the truth is we don't know what she did or didn't know. A voter's quandary is how to square that with some of her better moments, exhibiting leadership and savvy (to use your word).

12. missed the tv show but read QUOTES from her appearance about Dr King -- nothing short of embarassing
DOUBLETALK IN THE EXTREME ... could someone who voted fabulous please find the quotes:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4051457

and explain how these are logical and factually justified.

Barack Obama (or John Edwards, if he had a serious chance) would so be a stronger candidate than Hillary Clinton in Nov it isn't funny

Democratic pols across America are agonizing over the prospects of having her at the top of the ticket

14. is the last choice
supposed to be "awful" meaning bad or "aweful" meaning "I am in awe of her"

polls can be so confusing

16. I suspect there are people answering this poll who didn't even watch
It's totally pointless. There are preconceived partisan feelings during a primary campaign and most Obama voters are going to say she did terribly and most CLinton supporters are going to think she did great.

26. Pretty darn good...
Actually I thought it was outstanding. I didn't vote "fabulous" 'cause I don't like the word...it sounds like you'd say about a clothing design collection.

I don't agree with HIllary on everything, but she sure took control of the interview and didn't allow Russert to get away with his usual "gotchas." Bringing up Lewinski, indeed. She handled that with dignity and some humor.

28. And we want someone this polarizing as the nominee?
If she can't bring the Democratic Party together, what makes anyone think that she will bring the country together?

I don't understand the thought process behind that. Maybe if I have a little koolaid . . .

31. I'm against nominating HRC.....
... for a variety of reasons, and I only saw about 1/3 of the MTP, but I thought she did pretty well.

She didn't take much shit from Potatohead, that's an accomplishment in and of itself. :)

35. She did a good job imo
Under a withering assault from Russert she held firm. I thought she acquitted herself quite well.
