If you are going to have a Democrat, isn't Hillary really the best option? She is a lot better than Kerry and Gore. She is pro-free trade and voted for the war. If we are going to have a Democrat who else would you choose?

I don't normally respond twice to the same post, but this one seemed to warrant it.......is this the demeanor you are referencing....

I remembered this differently and, with after refreshing my recollection, found that you have bought into a GOP talking point. See: http://mediamatters.org/items/200507140001 .

Not that I think that Joe Wilson was being truthful throughout, but he never claimed that Cheney picked him.

(a) I used that term in reference to Bill Clinton, and he and HRC are very different people.

(b) Dissent.

HRC is surely not always warm and fuzzy -- and her political instincts were rudimentary in 1992-94. That said, I have seen no signs that she is sanctimonious, and I submit that no sanctimonious woman could possibly have: (1) married a young Bill Clinton in the 1970s, and (2) stayed married to him for 30+ years.

I like and respect her, and I honestly have never understood why she was so widely disliked. (Aside from those who disapprove of her decisions not to jettison Bill. I understand those opinions, though I don't reach the same conclusion.)

I venture to say that the passage of time and her repeated public humiliations on a personal level by WJC have combined with her hard work in the Senate to soften her image quite a bit.

It was vaguely funny the first time. Doesn't age well.

It may have not been a typo. I don't know. This was the first time I have heard someone refer to Gore that way. Basically, I have no clue to what that is about.

I haven't seen it in reference to Gore specifically, but "no-nothing" has shown up in a few different places which tend to be relatively typo free, so I though it might have a meaning separate from "know-nothing". Which use to disparage Dems would be amusing because the Know Nothing Party was basically absorbed by the Republican Party.

However, as Know Nothings were anti-Catholic, if it's meant as a signpost for conservative Catholics that this "no-nothing" is opposed to their values, then that's fairly clever.

I think that it is because they are women, Penske.

Who might, on average, be a bit sympathetic to the image of a strong, effective female political leader besieged by a largely white male hate machine. (More sympathetic in 2007 than in 1993). Also, see my post above re the effect of Bill.

Well, look at that.

Of course, I have always that the question of who sent him was entirely irrelevant.
