Clinton Fading from Inevitable

Senator Clinton fading

Employing innuendo and half-truths against Sen. Barack Obama, Sen. Hillary Clinton and her husband, the former President, have introduced the politics of personal destruction to the Democratic presidential campaign. They bear responsibility for cheapening the tone of the contest.

Sen. Clinton began distorting Obama's record in Monday night's debate and yesterday began airing a television attack that twists a recent Obama statement about former President Ronald Reagan to the point of clear inaccuracy. Bill Clinton, meanwhile, has wrongly accused Obama both of injecting race into the debate and of running a negative campaign against his wife.

You think that Democrats lying is something new? Then you must be a partisan because for almost 8 years Democrats have relentlessly attacked George Bush and the Republican Party with lies and deceit but it didn’t matter because partisan Democrats believed that Republicans deserve to be lied on and have their record and words distorted.

But what is new is Democrats lying on one another and distorting Democrat words with the perfidy that they usually reserve for Republicans.

Barack Obama just devastated the Democrat field in South Carolina with 55% of the vote in spite of the Clinton campaign’s lies. These are lies that are normally reserved for Republicans and using them against a fellow Democrat poses a major problem for the Clinton campaign because if the Clinton’s win the Party’s nomination they have already shown that they are willing to say and do anything, right or wrong, true or false.

What this means that everything that they say is now cast in doubt. They will not be able to draw honest and principled Independents, Moderates and Liberal John McCain Republicans.

Who is going to believe anything that the Clinton’s say except the hard left partisan Clinton supporter. That means that only those who care nothing about anything except getting Hillary elected for whatever unfathomable reason that they may have, whether it’s because she’s a woman or because she’s a woman. (There’s really no other reason to vote for her) will vote for her.

Hillary’s fade from inevitability comes because the stark reality is her followers can no longer nod their heads collectively and blame Bush, the Republicans and the vast right wing conspiracy for Clintonesque politics of personal destruction.

Because her attacks have targeted fellow Democrats the partisan Democrat zombies that usually hang on her every word are now waking from their lockstep sleepwalk and are questioning Bill’s and Hillary’s truthfulness.

There are some that will never question a Democrat like the rabid Ultra-partisan Eleanor Clift who tries desperately to convince herself that Clinton tactics and lying are actually good for Democrat politics. And there are some like the Los Angeles Times Opinion page that at least raises the question about the Clinton’s and their unscrupulous campaigning.

One thing everyone is willing to acknowledge and that is the Clintons have damaged Democrat politics by exposing Democrat tactics that would normally go unquestioned if those tactics were used against Republicans according to Ronald Brownstein.
Well, that’s not how I heard it, Bob, But if that were the case, you know, we all have to compare and contrast our records. That’s legitimate. You know, the idea that somehow someone’s record, someone’s words are off-limits, I’ve never—I’ve never seen that in American politics, to be, you know, reflective of my experience.

And I think it’s important that we draw these contrast. You’ll have to look at exactly what was said, but that’s up to the commentators.
– Sen. Hillary Clinton, To Face the Nation
In her interview on to Face the Nation with Bob Schieffer Sen. Clinton said, “You know, the idea that somehow someone’s record, someone’s words are off-limits, I’ve never—I’ve never seen that in American politics, to be, you know, reflective of my experience.”

Another lie Hillary the facts are your records as first lady of Arkansas and your records as the first lady of the United States of America are locked up safe and sound until 2012 by order of President Clinton. So that puts your record and words off-limits while you send your dumpster divers to dig up Sen. Obama’s Kindergarten essays. Do you think that's fair Hillary?
The lack of access is emerging as an issue in Hillary's presidential campaign: she cites her years of experience as First Lady as one of her prime qualifications to be president. Like other Democratic candidates, she has decried the "stunning record of secrecy" of the Bush administration; her campaign Web site vows to bring a "return to transparency" to government.

But Clinton's appointment calendar as First Lady, her notes at strategy meetings, what advice she gave her husband and his advisers, what policy memos she wrote, even some key papers from her health-care task force—all of this, and much more documenting her years as First Lady, remains locked away, most likely through the entire campaign season.

After all of the hype of the Clinton campaign we have seen Hillary for ourselves and judged that she is not inevitable she is not even certain to win the Democrat nomination.

If Democrats sign off on Hillary and accept her as their nominee they are making the statement that they approve of her lies, her deceit and her rapist husband. That statement is that the Democrat Party has selected another loser for the third consecutive presidential election and like Hillary the Democrat Party is fading fast into political irrelevance.

Judge the lies and deceit for yourself!

    I am deeply begrieved this morning to learn that the Kennedy Family has joined the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy, to join the ilk of Ronald Reagan sycophants, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, et. al. Such a nefarious betrayal dwarves the scale of betrayal by Judas, Brutus, and Cassius by Ten Orders of magnitude! That Caroline Kennedy would endorse that Black Upstart Barack Hussein Obama to give cover to her Monkey of an Uncle Teddy, as he hides behind her skirt, for his Monday stab-in-the-back against President-Elect Hillary Rodham Clinton is most obscenely unthinkable! Even President Bush would not sink to this depth of Evil Depravity! There will be Divine Retribution for this Heinous Crime!

    Teddy Kennedy (that besotted Womanizer! that bloated Walrus! that flatulent puffed-up Toad!) has chosen to bite the hand that feeds him by financing “The Big Dig”, not to mention the other earmarks that go to that miserable sewer called HyanniASSport and the rest of that putrid State of Massachusetts. Hillary will show him and his ilk! Just wait till you see the cost-cutting legislation, not to mention the Executive Orders that Hillary is planning to enact! There will be some Civil Rights rollbacks! There will be some more Welfare Reform! Wind Farms will go up is Teddy’s backyard in the new Green Environment Act that Hillary’s planning. That precious Eternal Flame over JFK’s Grave is going to be put out. Hillary will not tolerate such an act of disobedience worthy of Divine Retribution.

    Hillary will also remember her friends and her enemies. I am pleased to announce that the Ku Klux Klan, for their faithful service, will be eternally pardoned for their transgressions. Hillary is forgiving, and will even welcome Al Gore and John Kerry back into the fold. Teddy Kennedy, even now there is forgiveness for you, if you would only abjure your endorsement of Barack Hussein Obama!
