Comments on: Hillary Clinton, Fratricidal Maniac

The New Republic: Hillary Clinton's Continued Run Is Damaging The Democrats' Chances

[hillsangels1]

People need to get updated across the board. New polls are indeed showing that Hillary beats McCain in the fall. Sorry, but she has won the states that the dems will HAVE to win in the fall. And CBS should have issued a disclaimer about this article from The New Rebublic (staunchly anti-hillary) because it is full of holes, all over the place. CBS, publish responsibly please.

From all the debates it is apparent that Obama lacks the "charm" when not on stage and in front of his own crowd reading from a prepared speech. Too bad it is taken this long or people to see that it takes more than pretty speeches to run this country. Also we have had a inexperienced president for the past 7 years do we need another one.

I think Mccain will win the national if Obama is the nominee. We already know everything about Hillary...and the Bill jokes are way over-tired. But I think we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg of Obama''s skeletons. From Nafta to rumors of gay *** with limo drivers to charges of his wife being a racist.....c''mon the Republicans can''t wait to get ahold of this guy.

Most people will vote based on emotion and not reason...so we will probably get the slick talker!
I will vote for Nader if Obama is the nominee and order my bumper sticker...."Don''t blame me I voted for Clinton!"

NOBAMA ''08

Thanks Hillary!! You are making our(conservatives) job so much easier in keeping the white house. I knew I could count on you to completely destroy the Democratic parties chances of winning. For once, I applaud your efforts.

GOD BLESS YOU, MR. CHAIT! As a Dem-leaning Independent, Clinton''s show of boorish behavior simply serves as a reminder of her past abhorent behavior. I find it remarkable how short our collective memory is. Hillary is about Hillary and her drive for power. God help the American people should they stand in her way.

Dear Jonathan Chait, thank you so very much for your article. It''s about time somebody began to state the truth of what is happening in this primary process. Our dear Ms. Hellary is currently making a shambles of our entire election proceedings. It is, at the very least, embarrassing before the world. She is becoming a loose cannon that someone ought to reel in.

I have not seen one pol that shows that Hillary beats McCain. You must be dreaming. Every Democrat better understand that we must vote for the person who will beat McCain. Not one pol has her doing that. Show us and tell us which pol shows her winning. Every pol shows her about 10 points down. He is up 10 to 12 points. Show me the money (pol).

She is the Democratic Party''s biggest liability. We couldn''t have possibly found a worse candidate. She is trying to sabotage Obama''s general election campaign even though he will most likely be the candidate and She is almost certain to lose. Way to back stab your own party Hillary! The Clintons are such scumbags.

CNN''s front page article right now, "Invalid vote keep Clinton, Obama stuck" is absolutely stupid. They basically claim that because FL and MI aren''t being counted that neither can reach 2,024 delegates to clinch the nomination without superdelegates. And that somehow the party "must" figure out how to count them to break the deadlock. But they conveniently omit the fact that a) neither of them are likely to get enough votes to actually pass the mark even if FL and MI *do* get do-overs, and b) the mark is no longer 2,024 if FL and MI are counted. So it looks like either their reports don''t understand how the system works, or they are trying to put pressure on the Dems to count FL and MI (maybe for HRC''s benefit, maybe for McCain''s...who knows).

[hotelguy60]

Every Democrat better understand that the goal is to win in Nov. I (and You ) better vote for that person. Show me the pol where Clinton beats McCain in Nov.

This article expresses my sentiments.
Hillary is "being" exactly what we have.
Her "quality" and "tone" is just "more of the same."
Her "fight" stance is precisely why we have wars.
Her "fight" position pushes people to fight back.
"Fight" is how America is seen and how America is seen is in need of an overhaul.
Obama''s "quality" and "tone" stabilizes.
A steady, consistent, firm, positive pulse.
I don''t think we should allow Hillary Clinton to destroy.
I think she needs a very firm "No."

[jon2012-2009]

"Imagine in 2000, or 2004, that George W. Bush faced a primary fight that came down to Florida (his November must-win state). Imagine his opponent decided to spend seven weeks pounding home the theme that Bush had a dangerous plan to privatize Social Security. Would this have improved Bush''s chances of defeating the Democrats? Would his party have stood for it?"

Please don''t compare Republicans and Democrats when it comes to political maneuvering and shenanigans. The Democrats don''t come even close.

I agree it''s a lost cause for Hillary but that''s her call. The fight for the nomination can''t get any more damaging to the chances of either candidate come November than it''s been from the beginning. Your concerns about the Democratic Party getting the short end of the stick in the general election as a result of this prolonged process seem a bit exaggerated.

Hillary basically endorsed McCain. Any democrat should absolutely denounce AND reject her. She doesn''''t care about getting a democrat into office, she only cares about getting herSELF into office. Hillary is a disgrace.

Hilary did none of that!! Look you are obviously one scared Fascist and you should be but the Democrat Party will decide which it will be and we''ll all get behind that person and move the nation forward. What OTHER choice do we have. The guy opposing them want''s to keep everything the same... that''s a non starter that''s for sure. Sieg Heil Bush

[pvperson]

Hillary is down by what, 5%? It depends on who''s counting I guess. This article says that it''s "4,000-delegate race", that puts her down 2 and a half percent. Why doesn''t OBAMA give up? He''s hurting the party, he may cost the democrats the White House, and blah, blah, blah. It amazes me that everyone automatically assumes that Clinton should throw in the towel when she still has a chance to win.
