Clinton’s final appeal in Iowa

December
27

Voters in Iowa are likely growing tired by now of the political commercials, telephone calls and mailings that have been bombarding the state in advance of the Jan. 3 presidential caucuses. And it will no doubt continue right up to the last minute.

In fact, Hillary Clinton’s campaign announced today that she will make “her final closing argument to Iowans,” on Jan. 2 with a two-minute taped television message that will air during every 6PM newscast throughout the state.

    It took me a while, but I finally found a reason to support Hillary:

    She has already given her (unintentional) support to her husband’s Lewinsky-era contention that “he did not have sex with that woman” because SHE performed the oral sex.

    I cant wait for Hillary to become President and the “we didnt have sex because SHE sucked me” standard goes into effect.

    Thanks, Hillary!

    RE: Clinton stories….Are we ever going to hear the truth?.....

    How about brining Hillary Clinton back to Western New York to bring along those jobs she promised…..

    My most frustrating days as Deputy Campaign Manager last year, (For the GOP & Conservative Party candidate) was with the media.

    It never ceases to amaze me that Hillary Clinton is/was NEVER held accountable for her FAILED workings in Western New York State.

    In her first term running for United States Senate, Clinton promised those suffering in Western New York … Economic Development, More Jobs and to Repopulate this Region of NY.

    Clinton was to do so by “Promoting” Western New York State to American Business! Clinton Promised Western New York 250,000 NEW jobs by the end of her first term (Promising to Promote WNY to American Business Corporations)....

    End result…..Is by the time Clinton was running for her second term, Western New York LOST another 25,000 Jobs.
    (Clinton as of last year, should have now been held accountable for failing in the creation of 275,000 New jobs)

    Those on the editorial boards in WNY NEVER defended Clinton on her failings in jobs creation.

    End result….Is that Buffalo’s (NY’s 2nd Largest City) population has been cut in half. Erie County and the City of Buffalo are still held captive by a “Financial Control Board” .......25 to 40,000 Homes are abandoned by people who have left WNY because they can’t sell their homes to buyers.

    My question….Is there something wrong with this picture? Will any of the New York Media ever advise the “National Media” to bring this question to attention to the American voters?

    Clinton has used this State and might soon be leaving this State. Clinton has delivered nothing in regard to help to those who live in WNY.

    well, Jim if the Republican Party had nominated
    someone other than John Spencer, a hand picked
    clone of pro life chairman Mike Long..maybe the poitical
    discussion would have gotten around to your point…
    However it is now clear that real issues cannot be
    discussed in new york, becuase social issues come
    to the fore. and that is all the democrat has to
    do in order to use smoke and mirror to cover their
    failed records…
    and on that note should the republican part
    be dumb enough nationally to pick a truly
    out of the mainstream, hoaky populist like mike
    huckabee as its nominee…you can point out all
    the democratic failings you want..and guess what
    the democrat will still win….so I am heartened by
    your concern with western new york, bu had we
    nominated a counterintuitive candidate to oppose
    hillary, she would never have been on her way to the
    presidency, and the party wouldn’t be still looking
    around for a leader to get us there

    Don’t kid yourself about Hillary race last year.

    The National GOP wanted a Clinton Victory as a future $$$ ATM for their National PAC’s and GOP Party. (Which will happen for sure come summer)

    The GOP in NY State was DOA from Pataki’s 9th year of his last term.

    ALL GOP County Chairman knew a slew was on the way, predictions were clear of the largest NY State GOP defeat in 100 years (Which did in fact happen) No money and lost membership in the Counties across the State. (GOP deserved this for sure BTW)

    Loyal Republicans in the State (More so in True upstate) were leaving in droves for this last election. The whole ticket was a suicide about to happen.

    The GOP was split into three powers for sure.
    (I went through all this stuff before).

    The GOP Chairs told me people have left their County Party’s in droves because of the abandonment of Social Issues, 2A and Taxes. Or in other words, the failed policies of the State GOP Pataki era.

    BTW…..You will not see another defeat like the one the GOP had last year for a least another 100 years.

    And John Spencer obtained MORE votes then the top of the ticket (Faso for Gov) All (Other then Faso) got the base vote plus 2-3% in certain cases.

    john spencer was a disaster…he lost every ward in his
    home city..it wasn’t a race ..it was a chance for
    Hillary to go upstate and demonstrate he prowess with
    rural voters and allow her to argue that it could
    be converted into a national presidential romp
    Spencer, didn’t know how to deal with her, the issues
    or the limelight, he didn’t know how to raise money,
    spend money or articulate the issues, and as for the national GOP, they ran so fast from the spencer campaign
    that they wouldn’t even give him the usual courtesy’s in
    washington…If it wasn’t for elliot spitzer the republican
    party would still be reeling
