She has been the populist forever (2.00 / 7)

and I cannot understand how Edwards supporters don't see that.


I didn't believe in god before the primaries and I still don't.

Huh? (2.00 / 1)

Who is this Populist Clinton and where is she running?

How many donors does this Clinton populist have?

It would be great to support a Clinton that didn't use k street atms when they need campaign cash.

Troll rated for (1.00 / 5)

I know you keep repeating it like a mantra.. (1.00 / 0)

but I just don't see the connection as being that strong. Obama supporters seem fairly oblivious to a lot of things that I would think intelligent people would notice.. like..


Universal healthcare IS a Democratic value
It's been defeated
Obama has the best $PIN that money can buy.

When hillary (2.00 / 1)

wins her coveted demographic by 60% and Obama wins his by 80+ you dismiss huge chunks of American votes with these boorish stereotypes.  

Parr for the course for this campaign.

Re: I know you keep repeating it like a mantra.. (none / 0)

Yes, but it may all be moot now. After the devistatingly close win last night in Indiana, Clinton's next goals are to raise the money to pay herself back and then work at being on the VP ticket with Obama.  For the sake of the party, perhaps wise voices will prevail and convince Obama to step aside and submit to being the VP. I really don't think he can win it on his own in November.

what nonsense (none / 0)

she is no more tied to k-street than Obama is.  He has been able to pretend he has more small donors partly because every sale of a button or bumper sticker as a donation and counts it that way.

When talking about who is populist, we are looking at POLICIES that will help people, someone who listens to the people and tries to understand their issues.  Hillary does that and she always has.


For Obama it now becomes: Faith, hope and CHANGE! And the greatest of these is Change!

Re: She has been the populist forever (2.00 / 2)

"You know a lot of those lobbyists, whether you like it or not, represent real Americans."
-Hillary Clinton, August 4th 2007

I wonder why no one realized, including her it seems, that she's been the populist forever.

Gee (2.00 / 2)

I wonder if she meant the lobbyists that represent unions, environmental, veterans, voter rights and consumer groups, the AARP, the ACLU, the NAACP.  I know "lobbyist" is a bad word, but all these groups have their own lobbyists and last time I looked they represent the concerns of real Americans.

Re: Gee (none / 0)

And those same lobbyists are the big-money contributers she was fielding the question about, hmmm? Get real. That's typical political parsing, "well, not all lobbyists are evil, so I shouldn't feel guilty taking money from any lobbyists."

Re: She has been the populist forever (2.00 / 1)

Ah, but she made those comments at the Daily Kos convention. And everyone who reads Daily Kos is a hatey hate hater. So it doesn't count.

Re: Clinton the Populist Beats McCain (2.00 / 2)

"More importantly, in key battleground states, Clinton beats McCain in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida, while Obama loses to McCain in all 3 states."

RCP shows Obama beating McCain in Pennsylvania.
