In looking back to Hillary's
Dukakis debate debacle to clarify a point on Hillary's pointlessness, I saw the obvious. The type of obvious that sometimes slips by one because they are so used to seeing it.
Below is what most people have reported on which is Hillary's answers that seem to be bereft of any questions. That Hillary is scripted seems to be obvious. That she is badly scripted is more obvious.
Campaign call reveals Clinton debate concern
In a memo from the Obama campaign, spokesman Bill Burton said Clinton
“offered more of the same Washington political calculation and evasion that
won’t bring the change America needs.”
“The ‘politics of hope’ doesn’t mean hoping you don’t have to answer
tough questions,” Burton wrote.
Burton wrote that Clinton dodged questions on Social Security, Iran and
the National Archives issue. And on one of the more talked-about moments from
the end of the debate, Clinton’s position on a move by New York Gov. Eliot
Spitzer (D) to grant driver’s licenses to illegal aliens, Burton said, “Twelve
hours after the debate ended, the American people are still waiting for an
answer on Sen. Clinton’s position … She didn’t answer the question in the debate
and her campaign couldn’t answer it afterwards.”
What I glossed over was:
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s (D-N.Y.) top advisers, doing damage
control after the candidate’s debate performance Tuesday, told supporters on a
conference call Wednesday that the campaign needed more money to fight
back.
Huh, "more money to fight back"? Hillary's campaign, at a
bazillion dollars raised, needs more money? How much mascara and other men's wives must Warren
Beatty fore go to make sure this "seasoned" politico has enough money to be elected president of the free world? On the bright side, Hillary and team can't raise taxes to fund her campaign. If she could, we'd probably be looking at a 90% rate across the socioeconomic board, but it
would be for the good of the people which makes it
palatable. To Hillary.
Voters are to believe that Hillary has put together the best campaign staff since the plumbers fixed
watergate. But:
Mark Penn, Clinton’s senior strategist and pollster, and Jonathan Mantz, the
campaign’s finance director, told the supporters on the call, which The Hill
listened to in its entirety, that they expect attacks from Clinton’s rivals to
continue, and she will need the financial resources to deflect their
attacks.
Mark Penn and staff are just now picking up on the fact that Hillary's opponents might attack her again? This is the crackerjack team, the best that money can buy, but not quite enough money is had, that is going to get her elected? Why not rent
Dukakis' tank (and helmet) to just blast her opponents out of the water? It worked for Mikey didn't it and Mikey will try anything.
Money. Will the
Clintons ever get enough? At least Paris Hilton shamelessly gets and spends money on herself for
prurient reasons. Hillary will get or take money from anyone or anyplace to try to buy herself the power and respect she believes she deserves.
It doesn't matter if you are schlepping Egg
Fu Young, Hollywood fantasy, birch boards or
bullsh*t, you're going to feel a Clinton hand in your pocket. To a Clinton, money solves everything. Money can buy anything. Money is everything because once they have all the money, then, just then, they can begin to do all the good they believe they can. Nannies cost a lot of money.
BTW, that Clinton hand you feel in your pocket has nothing to do with love.
