I have absolutely NO respect for Hillary Clinton.
Edited on Wed May-21-08 03:33 PM by sparosnare
She lies. She breaks rules. She puts her own self-interest above her allegiance to the Democratic Party.

A few weeks ago, I was willing to give her a chance; she has proven once again she won't do the right thing.

That's really about all I need to say.

Repect must be earned; not expected and demanded. She's done nothing to earn my respect.

4. It matters to me and my daughters -
Edited on Wed May-21-08 03:34 PM by sparosnare
3 of them. I'm trying to raise them to have integrity and make good decisions even when it's difficult. Hillary is an embarrassment to women.

21. I agree.
If it mattered to her she wouldn't do and say the things she does. :hi:

3. She is totally embarrassing herself now
and the party. I never thought that could happen - ever. Too bad she has destroyed the Clinton legacy. This is what will be remembered by many.

6. She is a disgrace
to the Democratic Party, and to women who wanted to support a capable and principled female candidate for our country's highest office.

7. The Clintons never have had much respect for rules and laws
And then they leave it to people like us to clean up their messes and defend their indefensible behavior.

Not me. Not anymore.

9. Why don't her supporters see that HRC would only betray us once again, if elected
She would vote on another IWR in a heartbeat if it served her own personal interests.

10. i'm sure that as soon
Edited on Wed May-21-08 03:39 PM by griffi94
as she finds out that you feel this way she'll drop out of the race and then go on teevee and endorse obama while denouncing bill and begging your forgiveness for having been so insolent as to not do things up to your personal standard. you should e-mail her and tell her that you don't respect her and i'm sure she'll jump up and get on it. please keep us posted. LOL

22. right
unlike the voice of reason posts that preceded it.
i'm sure hillary lays awake nights worrying that you don't respect her, because after 20 years of getting dumped on by every right wing nutbar in the country losing your respect will be the straw that breaks her back. LOL

26. The poor woman.
She is so embattled; I feel so very sorry for the pain and torture she endured because she was Bill Clinton's wife. Let's make her the nominee! :eyes:

29. you're missing my point
i'll type it real slow this time.
hillary doesn't give a flying fuck if you respect her. especially if earning your respect means giving up a fight she's committed to before the last primary is over. if the dnc wanted the primaries over with by now they should have started them earlier. when the last primary is over then i'll worry about what happens next. you seem to be POd that she won't quit because you want her to. something on the order of 17 million voters don't want her to quit.

31. I get your fucking point.
My post is how I feel - which I am entitled to write if I choose. I know Hillary doesn't care about those of us who don't support her. She'd better care though - if she were to be the nominee, she'd want us to vote for her.

33. oh i see
well since you feel like that it must be true. as dr phil says "feelings are facts"
maybe an e-mail explaining to hillary your feelings would convince her to drop out for the good of the nation.

42. Respect is Basic
Why does Obama get respect at least, even if people vote another way?

Why do so many people NOT respect Hillary?

A good friend of mine proudly declared she supports HRC "because she's been through so much.". What a way to choose a president! :crazy:

I've heard that from many women; it's disturbing. As if she's been nailed to a cross or something.

46. It sold well
the martyr theme...:eyes:

Once there was something to admire about Hillary's comeback...but it's obvious she had to make some big compromises along the way.

I feel sorry for the women who have identified with Hillary's struggle. They're pawns in a bigger game.

16. I hope you see
How this long primary fight has been not good for either candidate and how taking this to the convention will only make this worse. At the beginning of this people liked both of them. Hate is growing on both sides. This goes on one more month people will hate the opponent more than they hate Bush.

23. The Clintons and the DLC have NEVER had any allegiance to the Democratic party
The only difference now is that their desperation no longer allows them to conceal their absolute hatred and contempt for the base of the Democratic party, and the rules and processes by which our candidates are selected.

25. Count me in.
Edited on Wed May-21-08 03:46 PM by atufal1c
I think we're being boiled here. She is going to drag this out as long as she can and wait for another shoe to drop, like the Wright one. If it does, she'll insist that Obama's unelectable. If it doesn't, she'll have killed Obama's chance to win and preserved a chance to run against an old Republican in 2012.

And I flat-out denied the above two weeks ago.

In fact....it's time to go to her website and I'll add another contribution to her campaign.
I truly like and admire her, she'll be a great Madame President.

I mean, 'nothing' is zero, and there are many minus numbers below zero.

39. No respect++
She lost it all with her Rovian tactics, Sniper-gate and her determination to throw the election to the Repukes if she's not coronated.

The SDs need to drop the bomb and end the race, and she needs to be completely ostracized.

I think she is nuts. She is bad for women and for the Democratic party. I just want her to go far, far away and never come back to MY country.
