2. She's right. Hillary is insane, and she's obsessed with the presidency.
As crazy as the idea of her being president is, she actually thinks she should be president. She can't run a campaign, but she thinks she can run a country. She's nuts.

6. Hillary is insane, and she's obsessed with the presidency.
She's starting to remind me of someone who made a promise to the Mob, and is afraid of having her legs broken if she fails.

13. You may not be that far off
Edited on Wed May-21-08 05:53 PM by Zodiak Ironfist
Her husband let pappy Bush slide on all of that nasty killing of Central Americans. Too divisive to get into, you know.

Think she made any promises to the GOP, or do you think they are actively campaigning for her out of the goodness of their hearts? I know that it is said that the GOP wants to run against her, but they have been spending political capital helping her, as well. That seems to go beyond simple wishful thinking.

20. Do you expect any sort of a reckoning for the Bush crowd if she
gets into office? I don't.

18. The idea that she could become president wasn't crazy 6 months ago.
Maybe Hillary's suffering from some serious time lag. ;-)

Kudos to Rachel for nailing it with no nonsense language and a dash of humor, as usual.

44. No more so than saying Obama is insane and obsessed
with the presidency.

She's just running against your guy. It's not the greatest crime in the history of the nation - it's just a primary race. We have them every four years - no need to get so excited.

19. Yes, today was the last straw. She is indeed obsessed.
She is scaring me now. Her and her cult - ironic that's what they called us, when it's clear where the real "cult" is.

Pathetic and ugly.

11. I was thinking yesterday that a SCOTUS promise would be the best way to get rid of her.
I would think she would do a great job and would genuinely love the opportunity.

No thanks.

We need a justice in that team, not a politician.

36. The DC bar is just the federal multi state. She couldn't have failed
unless she took it at a different time than AR.

43. Tell that to Hillary. She admits it.
But then again, she isn't known for telling the truth.

Hillary Clinton failed the D.C. bar exam after law school, something she hid from her best friends for 30 years until disclosing it in passing in her autobiography, "Living History."


http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/24/AR2007052402479_2.html

If you don't like that reference, I actually googled for it. Take your pick.

Results 1 - 10 of about 26,100 for clinton +fail +DC +bar +exam

She fails to tell her best friends for many years and then puts the truth in her book?

This lady has serious,serious problems.

48. Ever? In any situation?
Is that really the way it's supposed to work?

I don't think that it is. I think in this case, she's supposed to defer because... wait for it... she's so far behind she cannot win. She can only hurt the party.

Nothing to do with Clinton's gender, though I suppose using that as an excuse is balm for some hurt feelings.

She's not afraid to see, nor to be, a strong woman.
