I will never forget how they treated Clinton. And I have no doubt they they would want to appeal to women voters and mitigating Palin's gender effect.

Quote from Hillary's book(Hard Choices).. The O Team's Rebuttal.. [View all] Cha Jun 2014 OP

A very strategic and politically motivated statement, IMO. NYC_SKP Jun 2014 #1

Someone asked on another site if she were trying to burnish her creds with.. here's the quote.. Cha Jun 2014 #3

LOL...what she says doesn't even make any sense... Cali_Democrat Jun 2014 #2

I know it doesn't make any sense.. especially when anyone who's been paying attention Cha Jun 2014 #4

Please ...nothing was off limits Evergreen Emerald Jun 2014 #5

There's no point in trying to overanalyze her statement, especially vs. their statement. No Vested Interest Jun 2014 #7

Sorry, bullshit.. it's calculated. And, I see no reason not to ask who she thinks she's appealing Cha Jun 2014 #8

Precisely - Hillary exaggerates when she doesn't have to. It's like she can't help herself (sad). InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2014 #41

I know.. I just want her to stop. She has a lot going for herself without embellishing. Cha Jun 2014 #43

I Think She Meant... billhicks76 Jun 2014 #10

I think "proven liar" ... 1StrongBlackMan Jun 2014 #11

Sorry, I don't think so it's a "bit much".. Cha Jun 2014 #13

I don't understand Hillary's need to promote a false narrative that is so easily refuted. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2014 #44

Ouch. ucrdem Jun 2014 #12

I hear ya, ucr.. this is back from June 5th.. Cha Jun 2014 #15

NO, WE need a candidate who DOESN'T need advisors. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2014 #45

I really doubt the Obama campaign asked Hillary to attack Palin for being a woman. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #14

Exactly, DI.. and Obama doesn't roll that way.. I think that's been pretty obvious after Cha Jun 2014 #16

Yeah. It makes little sense. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #17

I'll definitely vote for her.. my advice to Hillary? GET NEW ADVISORS.. hIRE Cha Jun 2014 #18

Plouffe said he wouldn't run the campaign but would advise. joshcryer Jun 2014 #20

If you look at the whole quote in context-- LuvLoogie Jun 2014 #53

The quote still makes no sense. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #54

I doubt they explicitly asked that. joshcryer Jun 2014 #22

Absolutely don't believe that. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #24

Clinton said she thought they "hoped" that. joshcryer Jun 2014 #26

And reason enough to grill her over that statement. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #29

It wasn't just her camp that thought that. joshcryer Jun 2014 #31

There was nothing to fall for. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #34

I agree. It just doesn't pass the smell test. Enthusiast Jun 2014 #35

Plouffe is sort of skirting the truth here. Obama's campaign absolutely tried it. joshcryer Jun 2014 #19

Using female surrogates to attack Palin is not the issue here... Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #21

Thanks. Cha Jun 2014 #23

She said the campaign was dismissive of Palin. joshcryer Jun 2014 #25

Of course it was dismissive. So was their reaction to Ryan's pick in 2012. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #27

She did not mention specifics. joshcryer Jun 2014 #28

Of course not. Because it probably didn't happen that way. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #30

She didn't say it happened any way. joshcryer Jun 2014 #32

I am not a President Obama fan. Enthusiast Jun 2014 #33

Obama's campaign wasn't stupid enough to pull a stunt like that. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #37

this may be a political move to appeal to the women who never got over JI7 Jun 2014 #36

No may about it. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #38

I remember that. Warren DeMontague Jun 2014 #47

And, maybe some palin supporters, too? Women in general except Cha Jun 2014 #39

Really throws meat to the HillaryIs44 crowd. Drunken Irishman Jun 2014 #40

Yeah, it's dripping with self-righteous.. big bad Cha Jun 2014 #42

So is Bob Shrum like, officially running her campaign now, or what? Warren DeMontague Jun 2014 #46

It is concerning as to why she feels she needs to go in this direction. Obama reached out to Jefferson23 Jun 2014 #48

Totally agree, Jefferson. Thank you.. well said.. Cha Jun 2014 #49

You think this is bad, by 2016 she'll be in full Kenyan Muslim birther mode tularetom Jun 2014 #51

Which would be a very unpleasant flashback to 2008 mode. Cha Jun 2014 #52
