Clinton Slams Iowa; Praises New Hampshire's "Independence"
MANCHESTER, NH, Jan 4 -- When the press gave Hillary Clinton a chance to downplay her disappointing showing in Iowa, she took the bait. Over and over again.
"Iowa does not have the best track record in determining who the parties nominate. Everybody knows that," she told reporters after a brief photo-op at a cafe here.
Ouch. Of course, everybody also knows the senator's line would be different had she won last night. Instead, she echoed her spinmeisters in trying to suggest the momentum Obama gained from Iowa would not be a great threat.
"New Hampshire is famously independent. It is a place where people want to make up their own minds. They're not interested in what anybody else has decided. They want to, you know, look us up and down and make that judgment," she said.
And later: "This is a new day. This is a new state. This is a primary election where, you know, you're not disenfranchised if you work at night. You know, you actually can come out and vote. You're not disenfranchised if you're not in the state. You can actually send in an absentee ballot. So this is going to be a much more representative electorate, because we've got people who are going to be able to express their opinion in the way that we run elections in America and I welcome that."
She noted the turnout in Iowa was "huge by Iowa standards" but would be much less than what you'll see in New Hampshire and said she would do more to reach out to young voters -- mainly those under 30.
Clinton also reiterated her campaign's argument that she was always something of an underdog in Iowa.
"I was never the frontrunner of any significance in Iowa," Clinton said, repeating the line that this was partly because she was not from a neighboring state. (This is noteworthy because she was born in Illinois -- Iowa's neighbor to the east -- and often touts her Midwest upbringing and values on the stump.)
The senator was accompanied at the cafe by her daughter, Chelsea Clinton, and Bobby Kennedy, Jr.

She's sounding more plastic by the minute.
Typical Hillary...48 hours ago she was begging for Iowans to vote for her, now she is slamming them. It's time for a change! Go Obama!!
Hey..
How about one of Hillary's handlers getting her to remove those annoying "You Know" tics from her screeds.
Having a Kennedy there is REALLY the kiss of death. No wonder she was booed.
sounds like a very mad person-what a shame !!!
She is no longer even worthy of comment. Irrelevant is the only word that comes to mind... just like her husband.
Bye Bye Hilliary...Your 15 minutes are up...Thankfully
Hillary who ? Is she still running for Mrs. president. I thought she would have quit and buried her head in shame by now. Goes to show you what I know of politics!!
I'm not a political guru, but several of these comments are dissing Iowa, and I don't think that's a good idea. It seems to me that she should be trying to tell people why they should vote for her, not insulting a state because she lost. It only reinforces her image as being not particularly nice.
imagine that, both families kennedy and clinton trying to a nice spin on another debacle. crew em both
I'd sure like to see what accolades she heaped on Iowa before she lost. This sounds like a serious case of sour grapes. I'm copying this text so I can compare it to what she says after she loses the NH primary, too. If I were from Iowa, I'd be really mad reading her dismissal of my state. If she does somehow get the primary, I wonder if anyone in Iowa will remember these comments. I'm sure the media won't ever replay them if she ever has reason to set foot back in Iowa!

Ms. Clinton's comments after her poor showing in Iowa clearly suggest she has yet to grasp the winds of change sweeping across the nation. Considering the perception among many voters that she is disingenuous and opportunistic, her smarmy - if not outright derogatory - remarks about Iowa voters...which she never uttered before they cast their votes and deprived her of the early victory she hoped for...will do little to win over the swing voters of either party.
I'm a lifelong Republican who is fed up with the Bush administration for far too many reasons to list here; and since nearly every other GOP office holder I've heard has done little to seriously question him, the party has lost my vote at least for 2008.
When I watch and listen to Mr. Obama I harken back to the feelings I had as a child in the late 1960's. Even though on an issue by issue basis there are few areas I agree with him, he clearly strikes me as a man who sees something bigger than himself taking place in the world and I truly believe he wants to do what's right, not just what's right for him or his party.
Vince would wince if he were alive to here this line.
"This is a new day. This is a new state."
Sounds like a UN intrusion or take over to me.
-Honest
Wow, talk about sour grapes!
Her arrogance is beyond belief (not something new, but many are blind to the many instances of reoccurrence). I look at the faces of the people who support her and think, what is wrong with that individual. Is this a genetic disorder?

The Clintons have got to be the "slimyest" jerks ever to be in government.
what a load of crock. she is such a liar.
Hillary C is a disgusting filthy beast. Her ambition ego and poor judgment is worse then GW Bush.
Yea yea Yea: Ever see those pizzas where the
machines missed the dough circle: The truely new day would be for both Clintons to pack their carpet bags and go back where they came from.
Weren't we told for months just how smart Iowan voters were? Didn't CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS et al tell us that these folks were the smartest, most savvy in America? Well, what did these smart folks say?
Today Hillary said that New hamshire voters were more independent, and that they liked to upset Iowa votes. Break that down:
* did she mean Iowans were NOT independent?
* if Iowans are smart, and New Hampshirites always overturn them, are New Hampshire voters dumb?
Tell you what...check track #3 on my music CD 'Hillaryous' and you'll get the picture. The album: Blaming America First--and she always does. I put liberal stupidity to music@
www.conservativemusiconline.com
Clinton is part of the problem, not the solution. She is Washington D.C. and can not shake it. She will not win. Too proud to see the trees even though she is standing in the forest. I hear her say she will lead and has experience...in what and how?
Dude. I came here from Drudge. What the f* is up with the Hillary "Hitler" pose on his landing page???
Hillary is a hack at best. She really has no idea how the world much less this country works. If we leave any decisions up to her, we are all screwed. I personally am waiting to hear how she will spin it when she doesn't come in first in New Hampshire either.
Perfect photo Hillary behind bars, in black no less, love it !
In Iowa she asked them to " look in my mouth " they did and saw lies. In NH they will look at her heart, see the evil and put a wooden stake in it.
Does Hillary ever stop complaining? She comes across a lot like Romney always attacking her opponents, blaming her shortcomings on others instead of addressing them. It seems like she isnt learning from her mistakes and instead defers them on to others. Her message, her attitude, and her campaigns tactics are not resonating with voters and attacking Iowa, Obama , or Edwards are not endearing her to anyone. It seems like she needs to escape for awhile and remember why she is running because right now I see nothing other than a desire for power.
Which explains why 3rd place is 2nd looser.
Ya, ya, ya...if she'd 'won' she would be praising Iowa. Look out NHampshire, she'll trash you too if you don't give her what she wants. Why is she trashing Iowa...oops, I forgot, that's the clinton style.
New Hampshire will support Obama. The country is counting on them to do the right, smart thing! NO MORE CLINTONS! Our national security depends on it. They ignored the Khobar Towers attack, the attack on US embassies, the lst WTC attack and the attack on the USS Cole. They emboldened terrorists and failed to recognize the growing threat of terrorism. bill clinton gives hillary NO CREDIT for anything in his autobiography because she accomplished nothing. Where are the records, huh?
It may be a new day and a new state for hillary but it's the same old clintons for the rest of us. We're suffering from clinton fatigue...we need CHANGE.
Typicel Hillary. SOUR GRAPES! IMMATURE! She is no lady, not a gracious loser, a sulking baby. A dangerous baby with dangerous ideas. Anyone woman would stay in a marriage with such a philanderer receives no respect from me. She only wants power to control OUR lives. The world's leaders, especially the dictators, see through her and are laughing and hoping she is elected. All in Iowa should feel insulted!
Ouch! Hillary you are coming dangerously close to insulting ALL midwestern states when you slam Iowa like that. Don't think this won't come back to haunt you in a general election. Be careful!
If she loses in NH, is Hillary going to slam them too and every other state after that should she lose? The Clintons are a piece of work; blame everyone but themselves for their own performance. We have sent them a message that we, America, wants a fresh start! Anyone but Hillary!
Even with vote fraud, Ron Paul cant be shut out. Vote Ron Paul, end the tyranny!
I suppose if she loses New Hampshire she will then trash the state for allowing people to vote in either primary. Unfortunately, Bill is not in AAA health, and if his heart problem resurfaces , he may not survive the next four years. Can you imagine the country being run by a devious/dishonest woman who has exhibited poor judgement in the past, and who might not have Bill ariund to guide her.
Spin! Spin! Spin!
Can you imagine, a country represented by a President Clinton and a Nancy Perlosi not to mention Barbara Boxer? God help America!
The Clinton Campaign's assertion that they were also the underdog in Iowa is a curious one. As recently as September, the campaigns chief consultant, Mark Penn all but declared Iowa a victory in the Caucus.
Hillary Clinton doesn't need to hang her head low after Iowa, but to dismiss the disappointment as something akin to a Cinderella who wasn't discovered is too much.
Coming into this campaign, Hillary had the best national organization as well as EMILYs list people, the network of fund raising.
To sum this up, Hillary blew a lot of political capitol. 'Underdogs' never had the political capital in the first place.
Liar. Liar. Liar.
Given her advantages of preceived incumbency, money and organization she should have won Iowa easily.
Her comments speak volumns of her disdain for the collective intelligence of the voters.
Perfect picture at Drudge. The woman DOES belong behind bars....:)
So typical of Hilda. Run down the State you were praising only a day before. What a transparent phony.
She doesn't even have the grace to say that she lost fairly and now it is time to move on. NO she has to disparage the state, as though it was in the wrong and not her!
Do you really want someone like this in the White House? Selfish, brittle, NOT and ounce of self-awareness, hypocritical. No way.
whatever hillary!
just bow out why dont u!
I'M RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT AND I PROMISE THIS AND I PROMISE THAT, AND EVERYTHING WILL BE MUCH MUCH BETTER IF I'M ELECTED!!!
Sound familiar, How many times have you heard it in the past
I really hope she isn't our next president. If she is I shall eliminate the news programs from my listening schedule. Hillary and her husband are the most dishonest people ever to be in office!! I can't bear to look at her.
So then, what's going to be her excuse Tuesday night?
Yeah now Hillary slaps Iowa. This right after she praised Iowa Thursday night after her extemely poor showing. Take your toys home Hillary...
Hillary states what is wrong with the Iowa caucus system...
Love
dar
amazing
Oh, how sad... It's awful watching a poor loser who's about to tail spin and free fall down to oblivion... But then again, she never did anything to "earn" her "frontrunner" status... Bye-bye Hillary.... Hello "hope." David G.
Clinton cites her expience as a factor. At what? She is a political operative at best, never holding a position of authority until she carpetbagged to New York ( silly voters). She has done very little as a New York Senator for the people of New York and has not paid any attention to her "adopted" state in a long time! I know,I an a Western New Yorker. Can anyone cite her experience as a leader,out in front, taking the heat for her decisions? If so,please refresh me and ,oh, defending Black Panthers don't count nor consorting with Communists.
Why does the message from Hillary seem to change with each passing day, each passing poll and each passing state?
This woman is a joke.....Talk about spin...
What's her position on anything? She doesnt know.
Check on who she surrounds herself with....doesnt that tell the whole story......???
I am glad Hillary thinks Democrats in Iowa are insignificant. This should show everyone how she will be a very divisive President, and pit those for her, against those who do not. Hillary puts real fire in my belly - she's definitely not Presidential material.
Why can she not be gracious in defeat? Obama's win was a vote for civility and the politics of unity. I really think Hillary doesn't get it. She thinks by being negative-- toward Obama, toward Iowa, -- then all of a sudden she will get the votes she needs to be the party's nominee. We as a country are sick of the politics of spin. We want honesty, presence of mind and good judgement. When Washington (and Hillary) voted to start a war against a country that never attacked us and that didn't even pose a threat, at that moment we needed politicians and leaders with judgement, people who could step outside of the spin and make good decisions for our country. her pattern of behavior in the past and even now shows SHE is the one who is not ready on day one to lead our country.
Hahahahahah!
I wonder what she'll say when she comes in 2nd or 3rd in NH!
And the day after the NH primary, she'll slam the people of NH too. Is there no end to the Clinton's hubris?
Ron Paul took over 10% in the Iowa caucus, handily beating Rudy Giuliani and finishing right behind both Fred Thompson and John McCain. This despite that Rudy Giuliani made more visits to Iowa than Ron Paul. And, entrance polls showed that Ron Paul took first place (29%) among independent Republicans!
I simply can't stand this woman.
Do we REALLY want another clinton back in the W.H.?? My God Hillary would have to be COCKEYED to be President,That being on eye on the Government and another eye on her SKIRT CHASING husband Bill!!!This country can't take another Clinton IMPEACHMENT!!
I am extremely disappointed in Hillary's attitude after the Iowa vote.
Its not just about whether or not you win the favor of a state, not every state is going to accept a candidate.
Everybody pays attention to the attitude of a candidate as the election moves forward.
She just insulted a state by saying "Iowa doesn't have the best track record in who a party nominates. Everybody knows that." Wow.... talk about slamming voters for coming out to vote in the first place.
If she slams Iowa just because she lost the first state, what does that really say about her concern about our country as a whole? Do we really want a "leader" who doesn't have her heart in our country?
Sorry, she just lost my vote when it comes to our state in November. Many of my family members and co-workers have noticed the attitude too and are turned off. She's just not who we need.
Typical Hillary. Making friends and influencing people. No wonder she got booed last night.
We don't need Hillary in the White House!
I am delighted that the people have finally concluded that the junior senator form New York is not the person to lead this country and not to be the democratic nominee. She is a divider and Barack is a unifier. She ca't be trusted.
Thanks Hillary. I guess all those nice things you said about Iowa were only true if you won. You see, Iowans are smarter than you thought.
This little space cannot hold my contempt for any Clinton. However, we shall see what happens when the big liberal states have their say.
What's up with Chelsea Clinton, she does not talk to the media, or anyone else in public for that matter?
I do not believe the Clintons are protecting her in anyway possible; she is a 27yrs old college graduate with a questionable job history.
Why the media will not cover "The Chelsea Clinton Silence"?
Because your husband was the CEO/President of the United States of America does not anoint /guarantee you the right to be the next CEO/President of the United States of America.
That is NOT how a FREE society operates.
This is NOT a COMMUNIST / SOCIALIST country Mr. and Mrs. Clinton and to all of there ‘supporters’,
this is a GOD FEARING FREE Country.
Someone needs to keep those disparaging quotes about Iowa handy just in case she runs for president again --- after she gets TROUNCED this time around!!
i hope the wannabe new yorker who is actually a hick from arkansas loses the whole thing. i can't stand the woman.
Hillary Dillary Dock !
the witch must beat the clock
her hopes are washing away
as Americans realize the game she plays
Reviewing Hillary's recent commentary on Pakistan and Energy Policy, verifies that this grievously flawed woman would be the female version of the Jimmy Carter debacle that gave us the Ayatollah Khomeini and block long lines at our gasoline stations; only much worse. Considering all of her recent gaffes, one has to wonder if excessive use of Botox has affected her mental stability. It's no wonder that her campaign staff is shielding her from reporter and audience unscripted questions.
Let's not forget, Iowa. This is you typical Democratic spin Wake up and move from the left to the right. It's your fault that you vote liberal
NYTimes Headline....."Hillary Makes Whine Out Of Sour Grapes"
Obama represents the YOUNGER generation of Americans. These young Americans hold the key to the future of the US, and because of its superpower status, also of the rest of the world. Hillary (& Bush) represent the older, established generation that has made a mess of our world (greenhouse effect, dependence on oil, religious wars, etc.). In conclusion: vote for the future, not the past!
Hillary really needs to win, People are crazy for voting for Obama, I said this 6 years ago, And people still voted for Bush. Look what happened to our country when clinton was out of the Whitehouse....
Hillary Clinton for President.
You socialists supporting Osama need to check his corporate doners list with Goldman sachs leading,,if your lad gets near the nomination you will be saluting pres McCain.
How long before Chillary declares herself the victim of a vast Iowan conspiracy.
Billary and Hill are both so condescending. They take the electorate for a bunch of fools who cannot discern truth from error, and can't remember which lie they told last. Now she acts like a Junior High groupee that turns from the last clutch of dummees she was talking to, and then turns to the next group down the hall and talks about the previous group behind their backs, only this time she does it right to their faces in the national media. So when she leaves NH will she make fun of them and tout the next state primary as the smart guys who will believe her socialistic drivel?
How nice, Hillary, insult Iowa just because you lost it. I'm sure the folks who voted against you are more happy than ever with their decision. Not classy, but totally predictable. Buh bye!
"...you're not disenfranchised if you work at night....You're not disenfranchised if you're not in the state..." THE GALL OF THIS WOMAN! I've not seen such pathetic, sore loser.
Latest from the negative Clinton camp. "WE had
to clean up after the first Bush and now I will
clean up after the second Bush." How could we
ever elect another Clinton. Heaven help us.
America needs honest people to lead us.
How many "super delegates" does Hillary already have in her pocket - meaning she has blackmailed them into voting for her no matter what the voting results say? I think these are the people behind her strange comment to Couric that she will be the nominee. The nation might already be saddled with her and we don't officially know it.
All I can say is HA HA HA !!! ;)
And they think GWB is stupid.
This is stupid and delusional.
She is such an embarrassment to politics...as was her husband. I believe she would say anything just to get a vote. If she had won Iowa she would have been proclaiming a great victory. Can't imagine her being president.
Doubt Hillary at your own risk -- the Clintons, like the Germans after WWI, Darth Vader's Empire and herpes, always always ALWAYS come back... with a vengance.
Barack will be shredded at Saturday's debate, and the Clinton War Machine will find some way to destroy him before Super Tuesday.
As for the Republicans... this race still has four horses in it, with a fifth long shot (Paul) who's going to make things intersting in a Perot-like way.
"Iowa does not have the best track record in determining who the parties nominate. Everybody knows that," ...If she knew that, why did she spend so much money, time & effort there? Either:
A) this is some serious sour grapes
B) she isn't as smart as she's been told she is
C) doesn't think the voters are very intelligent
I vote for D - all of the above!
So we have done Hillary in? Good. But what about a candidate who turns his back on the American flag and refuses to pledge allegience as Obama did? Formerly used marijuana and cocaine. Spouts out socialist stuff all the time. Has a thimble full of experience as Senator. Hope is not a strategy. Why would anyone be excited about this kind of "change"?? On top of all that I guess he would be a target for every Gihadist type Muslim since he converted to Christianity from Islam. That's just what we need for a President, right?
Hillary is 'vetted'. A vetted Liar. Thanks to those in Iowa who saw through the spin. God bless Intellegent Americans!
She reaps what she sows!
...this is the smartest woman in the world? God help us if she is!!!
one thing's for certain: this chick wins the democratic nod, in the general election no chance she's taking Iowa after that slam. i love the implication: Iowa didn't vote for me b/c a) their election practices are substandard, and b) the populace is not a group of independent thinkers. can you say ELITIST?
Clinton,Obama,Edwards,Romney,Huckaby are Bush light. Same shit different day I am sick of it.
Invoke the Constitution VOTE Ron Paul!!!!
Gregg Lewis
Dayton Ohio
Sounds like someone is quickly going down in flames...and the sooner the better, because I'm not sure I can listen to much more of her bull. Sincerity is not her best attribute.
why does the press keep shoving Hillary down our throats? We don´t want her. Itś getting sad for her. I predict sheĺl drop out after losing NH. GO OBAMA!!!
My greatest fear is that all of this will result in Hillary NOT getting the Democrat nomnination. How unfortunate that would be for just the people of NH to get the extreme pleasure of driving her off the Democrat ticket. I want the Democrats to nominator Hillary so all Americans can enjoy the orgasm resultant from driving a wooden stake into her heart. Begone witch!
Hillary really is a change agent. In her husband's administration her presence caused Monica to "change" out of that blue dress! How is that for experience?
Hillary... stop running for president and make me a sandwich!
My greatest fear from the Iowa, and soon to be NH outcomes, is that the Democrat party may throw her overboard before she is able to manuever herself onto the Democratic ticket. This would be totally unfair that the peoples of Iowa and HH get all the pleasure of causing that result. I want Hillary to get the Democrat nomination so ALL of us Americans can have share the orgasm from helping to drive the final wooden stake throught her crafty political heart. Begone Socialist Witch!!
Somehow all you Bam Bam voters and the Republicans who want him to win forget that MOST candidates dismiss Iowas' significance- didn't Simon BarsinisterGuiliani bypass the state altogether. I mean, your blogments add more spin to the already misleading cable channel spin heads blabbing their Rovelust for
Obama to win. We are indeed a scary country because we continue to hurt our own progress by making it possible for the
Republicans another easy win: They stole the last two in a walk over and now we want to reward them by handing it to them.
It is vital you vote for Mrs Clinton. We are tired of George Bush's as our world representative. We need the kind soft face of Hillary to represent us around the world instead. For many reasons, but mostly for the best possible image of a fresh start and break with the past we need Hillary to give every speech for the next eight years.
Also, the party needs to bury the campaign finance crime story. It needs to keep the white power base in power, by pushing the first female president 'button'. It needs to keep the Clinton machine in power so no independent investigations will ever uncover the inconvenient truth's of the party propaganda and convenient values.
Keeping the Clintons in power is good for the party. It is good for the Kennedy/Kerry/Clinton machinery, and keeps all the minor economic peoples in their place.
Do it today...do it for the first black president, Bill Clinton. Do it for the party bosses that promise withdrawl at any cost to you or your families future or your way of life...do it for politically correct science. Do it for the unbiased New York times.
Do it for Al Gore's image. Do it for the Hollywood millionaires. Do it for Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. Do it for democratic party integrity and democratic party family values.
This is the time. Time to step up to the plate and vote for Hillary and Bill. Thousands of off shore illegal contributors from China are counting on you (since the statue of limitation will soon expire for all the potential fellons that fled the country for Bill ). Don't let them down.
Hillary must win. At all costs, regardless of the consequences to the country. Ignore her history, her affiliations with fringe groups, ignore her affiliations with illegal activities ( proven and unproven..time and time again). Give her the benefit of the doubt and the benefit of everything your family has worked hard to achieve.
Vote for Hillary, and give Hillary everything you've earned, she will need it to fund her special interest group programs.
it is time for Hillary Clinton. Show her your support at the next primary. Vote Hillary for the sake of the Democratic Party. This vote is for the future of the USA, so keep the Democratic Party first and foremost in your mind.
There are over 300 million Americans. Hillary is the best we can do. Vote Hillary.

Ha Ha...the self appointed queen of this great country has had her tiara shoved into a place where the sun doesn't shine. Thank you Iowa!!!
When you're as self consumed as the self appointed queen(Ol Hillary) is about how smart she is in comparison to the dummies that make this country great...you will be brought back down to earth by these peasants very quickly. Hope you had a nice landing Hillary...get use to it...New Hamshire is getting ready to drop you like an unwanted house guest. I'm sure you're out there today telling them how smart they are...it'll be intersting to see if they are also just stupid peasnats like Iowans next Wednasday. Get a little advice from Joe Biden and Chris Dodd in the next few days...they'll guide you on how to drop out gracefully(if you know the meaning of that word) after New Hamshire.
Obama = Class and Change = Go Barak!!!

OBAMA HAS MUSLIM IN HIS HERITAGE AND A SOCIALIST
VOTE RON PAUL
Sounds like see is spending too much time on her broom, and her words reflect her true colors, jet black.
Still the most dangerous woman in America. God help us if the voters swallow the koolade.
Obama/Edwards 2008
Hillary had this thing won a long time ago - that is, until she opened her mouth saying she wanted to be president. What qualifications does this woman have that warrant such an ambition? At least BO is likeable even though his politics are no better than hers. The Dems are a mess!! She has no better qualifications to run for president than Brett Favre's wife does to quarterback the Packers. Gimme a break. What a joke!!
I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday and she mentioned that she was supporting Hillary. I told her that was the one person I would/could NEVER vote for.
Her comments on the Iowa electorate following her 3rd place showing was typical of exactly why I can't stand her. You never know where she actually stands on any issue. She lauds Iowa when she thinks they can do something for her...and she demeans them when they don't do her bidding. She is an opportunist at best and will say she believes whatever works to her advantage at any given time.
The late Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone spoke his mind. You never had to guess what his actual opinions were. As a staunch conservative back then I disagreed with him on most any political issue. I wrote him many letters espousing my opinions and how I disagreed with many of his opinions....but, I always added at the end of my letters how much I respected him for speaking his honest beliefs and that we needed more folks like that in Washington DC.
That's the trouble with Hillary...you can't really believe anything she says. It's all opportunistic and not her true convictions.
I'm a recovering Republican :-) The Republican party has totally frustrated me the past number of years. Bush II has frustrated me to my wits end.
Unless John McCain is the Republican nominee....I'll probably be voting for Obama and his message of hope....assuming the Democrats have the stomach to repudiate the slash and burn tactics of the Clinton machine.
The sooner she's sent back to New York, the better!!! New Yorkers may have been duped, but the rest of America is too smart to elect Hillary. GObama!!!
This is truly the best part of the presidential election cycle...hillary must be suffering from all the "negatives" we have been hearing so much about...let me now read the democrats their "miranda" rights for nominations...
you have the right to remain silent

Hillary has even covered up the fact that she, too, was suspended from the Ark. Bar Assn. (in 2006) for failing to complete her mandatory continuing legal education. The report was on the Bar's web site in November but the Bar deleted it after word got out but before the press reported it. Go to youtube and search for the videos by hillarybad using the search terms hillary clinton impersonation sick tired obama to see them -- humorous (for some) and substantive showing all of Hillary's personality and other flaws.
Enjoy!
Ref the silhouette pic and caption at Drudge linking this article: In her New State she is outside the bars...we are inside and the position of the hand is self explanatory!
Now we know what she said ... but this is what she meant,
"Iowa does not have the best track record in determining who the parties nominate. Everybody knows that. If I lose in New Hampshire it will because I am famously dependent on Bill's coattails. But, this is a place where people want to make up their own minds. They're not interested in lies, falsehoods and deceit. You'll want to, you know, look me up and down and make a judgment on the fact I have no experience except that I slept in the White House for eight long, long, long years with Bill" she is going to say upon losing in the state.
"This is a new day. This is a new state. This is a primary election where, you know, I would like to disenfranchised you work at night. But, Bill and I cannot think yp a way, you know, you all will probably actually can come out and vote. We cannot disenfranchised and we don't have access the FBI files anymore to intimindate the people of the state. Plus, you can leave the state but send back an absentee ballot. So this is going to be representative of an electorate where over 50% can't stand to hear me talk. We've got people who are going to be able to express their opinion in the way that we run elections in America and I cannot overcome that, yet"
Hold on folks. The last time I looked, the American flag had 50 stars. Everyone, espeically the leftest press is extrapolating a victory for Obama. Is this what we really want. Change is great and we all know we need it badly. But be careful what we pray or vote for, the latter being for the purest of seculuarist.
Who among us want to take this country down the socialist trail? Obama is a commited socialist. Hillary is just a pure Boleshevik. Who among us think our taxes are too low? If you said "I do." then did you voluntarily offered to pay more taxes the last 8 years? You could have...the IRS is more than willing to accept more than you owe. Ask yourself why you didn't kickin more money to the insatiable beast in D.C.?
Who among us believe that the American people should cede their wealth, treasure, minds and industry to the United States Government? They work for us, not us for them!!!
Neither Obama or Clinton would make great presidents. Oh, they look nice and we all want change, but at what cost and effect. Think, for Christ's sake, think. For the secularist, think your own sake.
Iowans had better hope Hillary never becomes commander in chief or they will see F-15s over Des Moines.
Has Monica Lewinsky endorsed anyone yet?
thankfully, hillary is becoming more silly -- as in people actually laughing at her, not just the idea she is at all qualified to be President -- by the day. go Hillary, keep flapping those lips. suddenly, listening to you is enjoyable.
Hopefully her comments will get headlined in the NYT even though they seem to be hell bent on getting her elected. She will still be the nominee as the Clinton machine will make sure to use whatever tactics it takes (bribery, extortion, etc.). After all, it is their "right" to get back to the White House. There is still some furniture they left the last time they were there...
The only candidate that is really a change is Ron Paul. If you want change, I don't know why you would vote for anyone else. Bring the Constitution back in play.
Oh! the irony of being beaten by nine points in Iowa -- and by the only candidate with even LESS actual government experience than her!
Every word that comes out of her mouth is insulting to someone, and she doesn't even realize it. If she is elected, she will probably insult every leader of every country in some way or another. Her basic nature and life long practice of bashing her detractors is so automatic to her now, she will get the whole world mad at us.She is NOT a diplomat or statesman.
Hillary is a BLAMER! Its always something OTHER THAN THE TRUTH!
Hey ... for those who believe in reincarnation, maybe Hillary was really Joseph Stalin! She's a freakin' control freak who would love to be the dictator of America.
Thanks, Hill, but no thanks! We don't need people who make up the truth as they go along! In her first national election - SHE LOST!
Bye Bye Baby ... Bye Bye!! :-)
Clinton has a different face for each state she campaign's in. And Clinton aligns herself with JFK??
NO WAY!!!
Sounds like Hillary's having a hissy fit after loosing very badly in Iowa. Boo-"blanking"-Hoo, Hillary.
Everyone knows She's a witch. She has a negative reaction to her of 52%+ across the country. Only 19% of men would consider voting for her.
I would not be surprised if Hillary finishes badly in New Hampshire . Here's hoping She does.
If Hillary felt Iowa was so meaningless why did she spend so much time and money there. She must take the voters as mindless units if she thinks she can now say Iowa didn't matter.
If you haven't, give a listen to what Ron Paul is saying. Google Ron Paul and think about all that's wrong with our system and how much we need a President of the United States and not a President of the World.
Hey Hillary. You got booed. If you haven't gotten the hint people don't like you. Why don't you just drop out?
Hitlery is like a bad replay of Howard Dean's 2004 performance - the one where he threw a tantrum when he didn't win in Iowa. Now she's doing the same thing. The best way the Democrats can control which party occupies the White House for the next 4 years is to put Hitlery on the ballot - it will guarantee us another Republican president.
What I bunch of sour grapes. As an Iowan, and proud caucus goer, I've listened to her praise this state and the caucus process for months and months. She spoke endlessly about how we take our role very seriously and she was confident we'd pick a capable and well prepared leader for our nation. I'm happy to say we did just that. Her recent comments only make me happier that I caucused for Obama this week. Hopefully, the smart voters in New Hampshire will send Mrs. Clinton the message that her days as a candidate are numbered.
cold and calculating. i've never been a democrat, but i know democrats have more brains than this. she's out.
After the caucus results she spoke of "all the friends" she met in Iowa. 24 hours later she threw them under the bus.
On the Drudge report page why does it look like Hillary is going seig hiel? Isn't there a better picture of her some where?
Quick, Quick! Some body, Any body! Find some batteries! Bill cigar no longer works! Hurry up before she blows another fuse!
Yes ma'am, It is indeed a new state and a new day but, you are still the same old meglamaniacal lady. There's nothing new to be discovered about you.
Insult Iowans on the way out. Real class.
But the peasants didn't give the Empress what she is owed. HOW DARE THEY!!
Obama is the Clinton's worst nightmare.
Smart, a class act, positive, great orator, turned her cackling insult in the debate right back on her, and worst...he's black so you can't unleash the 50 megaton Clinton kill machine on him.
A new broom sweeps cleam. Then she can fly away on it.

The Clinton's have always been nothing more than thieving-gas-bag-tools of the elite and their purpose has finally come to an end due to the fact that the sheeple have awakened. Its really too bad that their Southern idiotic charismatic arrogance hides the the fact that even their denial cannot save them. They are done....Next!
Moving forward to the past to bring us to a better place ... and save the planet. This is why I vote Democratic. I like the way all the Demnocratic candidates understand what theworld is all about. For example, Hillary: "Ya'll know how they like to keep us on the plantation."
Or, John Edwards: "Ya'll know how we go to bed hungry and sick from no health care."
Sadama Obama (or whatever his name is): "Ya'll know how they got a foot on our back, holding us down. I'm gonna open up the door of opportunity and put everybody on the government payroll ... and balance the federal budget, too. Go down to your nearest Cadillac dealership and pick out your new car ... when I get to Washington, send me the bill!"
The Democratic world-view is one of gloom and doom caused by the Republican party, business and all large employers. Of course, until there are massive lay-offs, then its "the Republicans fault because they hate when people work." The normal Democratic solution, which I agree with, take all the money from employers and give it away to the poor. While being the majority political party in America throughout the 20th century, they were and are a party standing on the sidelines of human events, powerless to use their majority party power to effect any meanful change ... except while campaigning. Therefore, they are not responsible for anything bad. Because they didn't do anything with their power. But, they will cut everything bad in the next round of elections. My party, the Democrats, are easily tricked by morons, always the innocent bystander of political events, Democrats want power but are powerless to keep their promises, while on a mission to save the planet. And, as Kerry promised during his time in the spot light, bring an end to the paralysis that crippled Christopher Reeves. A promise that fail off the Democratic radar under they regained the House and Senate in the 2004 elections. Democrats will promise to bring an end to all sickness and disease while Republicans hate human life and support all human sickness and disease. When sickness and disease continues to exist Democrats will say it is because Republicans block all their efforts to end it. But, vote in the next election and the Democrat candidate promises to end all sickness and disease.
Take is why I vote for Democrats. I like their bogus, hollow, blow-hard promises.
never trust a woman that wears pants. If Billery wants to come back maybe she should get Monica lawenski out of the closet. GO OBAMA Go...
Typical Clinton. Nothing's ever their fault. They're just so perfect in every way. God's gift to humanity. Truth be known, voters have their number. They are frauds and everyone knows it.
"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."....
She's unchecked.
This is a new day, this is a new state...yak,yak,yak,yak,yak,yaaaaak.
Has anyone really stopped to think of how ridiculous all this posturing must seem to the outside world.
Hillary, step up and take this defeat like a man!!!
you're all a bunch of monkees. Do your homework and pick a candidate that will really do the job. You don't have to like them personally.
Hillary is very capable of doing the job - more so than any of the other candidates. That's what all of you should be thinking about.
For god sake people - We need a president with some experience!
Hillary is a real CRACK UP. She sounds like one of those spoiled high school kids from a rich district who just lost to a rival high school from a poor district. Her experience is really showing (... he he or tee hee)
What a dishonest woman she is. And what a disaster she would be for America, as president. If she had won Iowa, I bet her line would have been more like: "Once again, the Great State of Iowa spoke for all Americans".
Can't wait for the Hildebeest to go down in flames in New Hampshire too. THEN who is she going to blame??
The fat lady is warming up
Nah, nah, nah, nah, hey , hey, hey good bye
(Good riddance Clintons)
I thought Hillary Rotten was the smartest woman in the world? But she is too stupid to realize that if by chance she won the nomination, she'll be back begging the same people she's dissing now for a vote?
I always thought the Clintons and their minions highly overrated in skill and intellect.
I am a conservative, will never vote for a Democrat, but I must say when it comes to leadership Obama is everything Hilary dreams of being but never will be: articulate, eloquent, inspiring, genuine, magnetic. Everything Hilary has accomplished has been on the coat-tails of her gifted (but characterless) husband. She really is void of genuine leadership attributes. Leadership has been shown to be genetic. Hilary was not endowed with leadership traits. She was endowed with ambition which can never substitute for true leadership. And now that Obama has arrived on the scene and emerged as a natural born leader, it is becoming pathetically obvious how bankrupt Hillary Clinton actually is as a leader. Folks, stay tuned, this could turn into a spectacle of spectacular proportions as the nation witnesses a candidate go down in flames without a shred of dignity. For Hilary was not a gracious winner; she will most certainly be ghastly as a loser
Yes, Hillary, New Hampshire is a whole new state. A whole new state that HATES your GUTS. Bail out now, Mrs. Klinton, nobody wants you.
The Stalinist is desperate !! The end is near !!!
Hillary, please go away!!
"Iowa does not have the best track record in determining who the parties nominate. Everybody knows that"
then why the heck did she place so much importance on it? why didn't she focus her efforts on the states that will get her what she wants? obviously, she would have felt differently had she won. She says she is best to lead this country "from day one"...be careful of electing a "leader" who trashes those who don't give her the outcome she desires...doesn't sound like a leader to me... i'll leave it to everyone else to fill in that blank...
Fred Thompson is the only candidate who is able to lead our wonderful United States. He has solid conservative ideals about terrorism/war on terror, taxes, immigration. VOTE Fred Thompson for President!!
OH MY GOSH,
AMERICA WAKE UP,BIL/HIL DID MORE DAMAGE TO AMERICA,: ENRON,SOCIALIZED(COMMUNISTIC) HEALTH CARE,INFLATION,EDUCATION SYSTEM THAT WAS A FLOP, HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT,HIGH TAXES, LIES AND LIES,NO RESPECT FOR THE OFFICE, OR US AMERICA.
THEY ARE A COUPLE OF SNAKES, WANT CHANGE THEN LETS GET GOD BACK IN AND GET THAT SHE EVIL MONSTER OUT.
WHAT ABOUT A MAN WHO WILL NOT SALUTE THE FLAG OR WEAR THE PIN ON HIS SUIT? WHAT IS 'NOT' BEING SAID COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS TO AMERICA. THAT COULD BE A REAL CHANGE/SHOCK. WHAT IS HE HOPING FOR NAME IT, SAY IT, DO IT.
looks like the new democraps have lost their way. WHAT HAVE THE DEMO'S DONE TO MAKE A CHANGE IN THE PAST 8 YRS? ZIP only lack of unity and disrespect destruction to our country and OUR Pres. Bush.. THEY ARE SO EAGER TO 'CHANGE' AND 'HOPE' BUT SEEM TO BE HOPE AND CHANGE MONGERS WHERE IS THE REAL ACTION. SHAME ON THE DEMOCRAPS PARTY OF TWO.
WE NEED EISENHOWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The democrocks do not offer MUCH in a serious time in history. This is insulting and offers compromising instead of a valuable choice.
Congressmen who willfully take actions during war times that damage morale and undermine morale , and undermine the military are sabateures and should be arrested, exiled or hanged.
PRES. ABRAHAM LINCOLN
WHY WOULD I FEEL CONFIDENT WITH CLINTON AS PRES; IF SHE VOTES FOR A WAR, THEN DOES NOT WANT TO SUPPORT IT? WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE OUR SOLDIERS?
HER HEALTH CARE REFORM WAS WICKED. CAN SHE CHANGE IT, SHE DIN'T DO IT WHEN SHE WAS THE INSURANCE COMMISSIONAR, DID IT WORK, NOT AT ALL. SHE IS SCARRY AND TALKS OUT BOTH SIDES OF HER MOUTH AND NEITHER ONE IS WORTH LISTENING TO.
billery roDAM klintoon will carry n.y and n.j. as sheepeople liberals love the fat pig. you cant make a silk purse out of a fat hogs ear, it will always ge a fat hogs ear.
do you want a thing in our white house who cackles and screams when it speaks ? i dont.
More reasons why I'm a Democrat. Hill-Billary, Sadama Obama Yomama and John Edwards will all agree, Democrats support life, support embryonic stem cell research to discover ways to save life. They all see that life and all medical advancements rest on a pile of dead, aborted babies. I love a party that has a deep respect for life.
I'm sure Sadama Obama Yomama, will promise to make the crooked things straight and the straight things crooked. Make the poor rich, and the rich poor. Then, make the poor rich and make the rich poor, again. Then, he'll lead us into change ... pocket change. That is why I am a Democrat. I like the way they make big promises!
I see a woman scorned.....her demeanor, her poise, continue to evaporate into thin air. Maybe " anger management " is one topic that she needs to explore and self apply; the sooner the better for herself, Bill and those in the Senate.
Peter
How can we just sit there and listen to an out of control, screaming, cackling woman whose only claim to fame is that her husband was on very intimate terms with Monica L. is beyond human comprehension.
Go home Mrs.H.R.C.... time to pack it in and learn how to bake cookies....fast.( fast )
My fellow Americans, Iraq and our image abroad are the overwhelming challenges confronting us in the 21st century. Our Nation is better off choosing a candidate capable of ending the United States military presence in Iraq rather than finding a pure anti-war standard possessor. The most important thing is who can do it. Hill Clinton will. I totally agree with Clinton, as a result of these failures, the next president will inherit some of the greatest foreign policy challenges in our history. We desperately need a strategic expert on war and foreign policy. Clinton has said she would not have voted for the resolution knowing what she knows today about flawed prewar intelligence, and that totally settles it. She voted for the resolution to protect and secure America. We desperately need Hillary Clinton to reconnect America to the world. ONLY Clinton offers authority on the complicated situation in Iraq and presents the most winning exhaustive strategic plan. She is exceedingly ready and prepared to lead America from day one in the Whitehouse. God bless Hillary Clinton, our next President, for a strong and globally respected America. God bless America. My fellow Americans, may you have a very blessed 2008 in the Lord, with Hill Clinton as President of the United States of America, to the GLORY of God The Father, God The Son and God The Holy Spirit.
I'm glad I didn't vote for Hillary here in Iowa considering that since we didn't go for her, we weren't "independent" and we don't matter. If she thinks that New Hampshire is "independent" then she had better quit trying to imply that it's a sure shot for her because her strategy seems to be backfiring there too.
