Will Clinton Campaign For Senate Dems?

July
7

With Sen. Chuck Schumer out endorsing Senate Democratic candidates, a major question is whether Hillary Clinton will do the same now that she’s back in the state and finished with her presidential run.

Clinton has never been a major player in state politics, but she did talk recently with Senate Minority Leader Malcolm Smith about getting involved in Senate Democrats’ bid to win control of the Senate for the first time since 1965.

“She is looking to get engaged with helping our Senate majority campaign,” a Senate Democratic aide said.

Clinton remains a political force and Senate Democrats would love to have her out holding fundraisers for their candidates. But apparently she hasn’t made any specific pledges to help them yet.

    Who cares whether HILLARY keeps ‘bilking’ donations so she can repay herself – and pretend she is ‘friendly’ with the latest reincarnation of JOE ISUZU. BARACK OBAMA has become the commercial model for the ‘new’ JOE ISUZU – you sorta like the guy even though he is lying to your face about everything. JOE ISUZU would shout out:”Eenie malo kickee boo-boo.” WHICH MEANS TRUST ME. OBAMA shouts out that first he is against FISA – then he votes for it!!! OBAMA states unequivocally how he is against the IRAQ WAR – now he will ‘REFINE-his-VIEWS’ on IRAQ – whatever that means. OBAMA says he is for ‘FREE-TRADE’ – but against NAFTA. OBAMA belonged and was active in a ‘church’ for twenty years that encouraged diatribes against the JEWS/ISRAEL/ZIONISM – amd then stated before AIPAC[AMERICAN-ISRAEL-POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE] that his name BARACK is somehow derived from the Hebrew ‘Baruch’[blessed]. Is BARACK OBAMA still smoking that ‘whacky tobacco’ he admitted to doing in his younger years??? BARACK OBAMA – the ‘new’ improved JOE ISUZU – WHAT A COMMERCIALLY FOISTED YUTZ A PRODUCT OF THE NATIONAL ASSHOLE MEDIA!!! BARACK OBAMA:”Eenie malo kickee bobo” – means don’t TRUST ANY POLITICIAN – EVEN A “…BLACK” ONE LIKE ME!!!

    agenda

    From: PUMA Supporter

    To: Flip Flopper Obama, Obamabots, The gender-biased corrupt DNC, and media.

    I hope all Pro Hillary Blogs are sending the Obama Camp, Hillary, The corrupt gender-biased DNC and Media, and Obamabots a clear and strong message that we’re not going to fall in line with this Charlatan, Flip Flopper, Lair Obama. We are not going to vote for Obama no way no how, we will vote for Mccain, Nader, or stay home before we give this fraud our vote. We are not listening to Hillary’s unity speech, because true Hillary supporters are not stupid, we know that she’s being pressured to endorse this fraud or risk being politically black balled by the gender-biased media, some Congress members and the DNC leadership.

    Hillary did what she thought she had to do publicly to keep the DNC from damaging her political career even further, but as Pastor Manning says in one of his lateast Youtube videos that Obama is trying to pimp out Hilllary just to help him win the Presidency and then after he’s through with her, he will kick her to the curb like he did many of his former associates when they where no longer a Political asset of advantage to him. The DNC Leadership really did not care about Hillary from the beginning of this campaign season, that’s why she lacked their support doing the primaries to become the party’s nominee.

    But in the end, I Pray that Hillary and her supporters have the last laugh in Denver, if the Superdelegates open their eyes and see that Obama is not the one to become our President, but instead realizing that Hillary is the most electible, experienced, and qualified to do the job of President starting “Day One” of stepping into the Oval Office, as opposed to Obama who’s just full of hot air flip flops, lies, and beautiful deceptive speeches.

    Darrel,
    What is your contribution in Clinton debt relief fund?

  7. Tim Hays

    Hey guys: our junior Senator could certainly use the exercise, yes?

    Those double-wide pantsuits are starting to look stale.

    I’m sure Sweet Old Bill will be out there, trolling for votes. Especially with newer, 18-year old voters of the fair sex. Maybe at the Starbucks in Chappaqua.

    We love Sweet Old Bill.

    Hillary Clinton has done a lot more for state pols than Chuck Schumer. Anyone familiar with state politics knows that…I would hope anyone writing about state politics would as well.

  9. Tim Hays

    ed: nobody here doubts the veracity of Senator Clinton.

    Me, I was getting to like her a lot when she threatened the Iranians. In fact, I was aroused.

    I wouldn’t want to catch her on a bad day.

    The Iranians (and muslims, in general, for that matter) are a bunch of reckless, ignorant poot-butts.

    Hey: we can each think of great Jews, and great Christians, and great Buddhists, and great Hindis. Can anyone think of some great Muslims? Come on—ten seconds. Name ONE.

    (Read: “Guests of the Ayatollah,” by Mark Bowden. Atlantic Monthly Press, 2006)

    Okay: in answer to my own question—Naguib Mafouz, the 1988 Nobel Laureate in Literature. He is with Allah now, unfortunately. Mafouz was a magnificent writer.

    But others? Science? Medicine? You get my drift.

    These Muslims have this irrational hatred of Jews, who have accomplished much more than they ever have. And they (the “M”s) hate us Christians, too. For some ancient 15th Century crap.

    So—why should “we” be tolerant of “them” in today’s United States?

    Just looking to challenge an assumption here. Any intelligent responses are welcomed.

    That’s why I was starting to like Senator Clinton, although I was a Romney delegate (before he lost New York).

  11. LOU

    CLINTON SURE GOT INVOLVED IN HELPING DO NOTHING COUSINS LAST TIME OUT. THANKS HILLARY!!!!

  12. Tim Hays

    LOU is absolutely right.

    Mrs. Clinton, then known as a “pro-Black” former first lady, and sitting (double-wide) Senator, romanticized Mrs. Stewart-Cousins (a lovely woman) as some relief for her spoiled, trashy white being. And we lost Nick Spano for it.

    The horrible, spoiled white liberal, guilt-feeling human trash here in Hastings voted for Andrea for no reason other than they are white liberal, guilt-feeling human trash, thus turning Nick Spano out of office.

    Here’s the conundrum: Andrea is a lovely woman, although she is of no use to Hastings (my selfishness). I would love to know what she has done in her first year and a half in Albany. It is tough to dislike her as a person. She is simply a tool of the awful, ugly human Democrat garbage that’s moved here from Brooklyn and Riverdale over the years.

    Friends: never trust a “liberal.” They’ll screw you every time.

    Izak, I donated quite a bit of my funds to Hillary’s campaign and debt fund. I’m totally dedicated in helping PUMA and other Hillary groups and blogs in trying to block Obama’s Presidency since the gender-biased media and corrupt DNC did everything they could to force Hillary out of the race, by playing both the gender and race card on the Clintons for polictical advantage and gain among the Black race, both men and women who don’ believe that women should not hold this office for some reason or another.

    I believe what the Bible say’s, “You Reap What You Have Sown in due season”, Obama will reap in due season how he lied, cheated, and played the gender and race card to win the nomination, the covers will be pulled all the way back on him in due season, what’s done in secert will be brought to the light for everyone to see what a fraud he really is, I just hope it happens sooner than later, this will give Hillary a chance to step in the gap to challenge and beat McCain on general election day. If it does not happen for Hillary at the Denver Convention and Obama is made the offical nominee, he is going to have a hard time and nearly impossible being successful uniting PUMA Hillary supporters like myself behind him to help beat McCain, we will not help unite the corrupt DNC around a corrupt candidate like Obama, he’s a Charlatan and much too dangerous to let him have the keys to the White House, especially now being a flip flopper on the issues, McCain or Nader will get PUMA Hillary supporters votes in November.

    You Obamabots are really going to lose out in the long-term for making an irresponsible decision to unite behind a candidate like Obama who preaches hope and change, but does not have the experience and back bone to back it up, he talks a good game, that’s what pimps are good at doing, Obama comes from the old Chicago corrupt politics crowd, Obama is very well versed at slick talking and decieving people into seeing things his way, I see what Obama is really all about, he does not have me fooled a bit.I just wish people would soon wake-up and see Obama for what and who he really is.

    People approach me all the time and state: “You’re an African American, I just know you’re going to vote for Obama”, I very quickly and sternly tell them no, Obama will not get my vote, because he has not shown me anything, but a lot of rosey deceptive speeches with no real substance, I also tell them just because I’m the same skin color as Obama, please don’t make an automatic assumption in their mind that he automacally has my support and vote, that’s sterotyping me.

    I’m voting experience and qualifications over race, gender, hope, change and earth-scattering rosey speeches,some politicans will say and do anything to get my vote, I reseached and still researching both Hillary’s and Obama’s background, So far, I’m concluding that Obama does not meet that standard and threshold of experience and qualifications to effectively perform the job duties of the Presidency in my opinion, Hillary did.

    You Obamabots keep saying get over it, be quiet and swept what was done to Hillary under the rug and unite behind Obama for the good of the party to help him take back the White House, we can’t do that, because the election was conducted unfairly towards one candidate over the other and this wrong, we may lose the battle, but one thing for sure we’re not going down without a fight, So please don’t ask or tell us to get over it, because it’s just not going to happen. this corrupt party no longer has any credibility among millions of voters, that’s another reason why they are struggling to get the donations needed to host the Denver Convention and meet other party obligations as well, good enough for Yeaaa!! Howard Dean for taking sides too early over one candidate over the other, I hope Dean replaced and the DNC party rules change in the future when it comes to primaries when he himself is forced to step down as DNC chairperson after this mess is all over with in November, including forcing out all the Congress persons who endorsed this fraud, Obama throughout this election process when their re-election comes up again.

    In Response To LOU: By Anti-Obama And PUMA Supporter, Darrell

    You know exactly what I’m talking about, if you don’t, I can now understand why you’re able to be duped by the deceptive hope and change game Obama is playing on the campaign stump to win votes, this Charlatan has you so brainwashed that you can’t make an intelligent response to my post. You know what I’m saying about Obama is true when it comes to his flip flopping on issues, his inexperience, and playing the race and gender card to gain the Black and male vote. Obama is a fraud.

    I hope Obama’s supporters will soon wake-up and realize that Obamais too dangerous for this Country, by giving him the keys to the White House.I’m an African American who can see right through Obama’s deceptive pimp game he’s running on some gullible Americans, he can stand on his head and flip flop all day if he want’s to, some people wil still vote for him just to say they’re electing a Black President, no matter what flaws he exhibits, some Americans want a Black President so bad and at whatever cost that Obama is able to get away with saying or doing anything he desires.

    If Hillary was the nominee and doing some of the irresponsible things Obama is doing and has done, there would be public outrage within the Democratic party and the gender-biased media, this is the main reason why Obama was able to get this far in the race, because he’s on-goingly being treated with kids glove and cuddled and protected like a little baby, and if anyone opposes him in anyway, he would play the race card or send his attack dogs out on them to try and destory their reputations and try to silence his critizers like he did Hillary and Bill doing the primaries.

    I’m an African American male who would love to have a person of color or a woman become President, but Obama is not the one, I just don’t trust this man to able to effectively and honestly do the job of Commander and Chief. Obama’s too inexperienced and corrupt to be America’s President, including being a flip flopper and saying anything on the campaign stump just to win support, he’s no different than any other politican, the only thing that’s different about Obama is that he’s campaigning on being a different politican when in reality he’s not, So that makes him out to be a outright liar, charlatan, and fraud in my book, Obama will never get my vote, I don’t care if Hillary any other politican campaigns for him everyday until election time.

    A Call To Action to PUMA And To All Other Anti-Obama Bloggers And Supporters!!

    Lets’ try very hard to successfully block Obama’s Presidency, let’s make a lair out of the gender-bias media, the DNC,Obamabots, Obama and his Campaign staff. only support Anti- Obama initatives, and on general election day, vote for another Presidential candidate over Obama.

  19. LOU

    DARRELL –
    WAS JUST HAVING A LITTLE FUN! I DIDN’T EVEN READ YOUR POST THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE IT WAS TOO LONG. I DID NOW AND YOU MAKE SOME POINTS ALTHOUGH NOBODY HERE WILL READ THAT BECAUSE OF THE LENTH TO BE HONEST.DARRELL – THE LAST POLL I SAW HAD OBAMA GETTING 90% OF THE BLACK VOTE. I GUESS YOU ARE A PERCENTATGE OF THAT TEN PERCENT. I DO AGREE WITH YOU THOUGH. I WOULD NEVER VOTE FOR SOMEONE BASED ON COLOR OR RELIGION. I VOTE FOR WHO I THINK WILL PROTECT AMERICA. I BELIEVE THAT PERSON IS JOHN McCAIN. I DON’T AGREE WITH EVERYTHING HE STANDS FOR BUT I AGREE WITH YOU THAT OBAMA IS A SMOOTH TALKER BUT WILL DESTROY THIS COUNTRY. SEE, I WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW LONG YOU WROTE AND LOOK WHAT I DO. ANYWAY – NO DISRESPECT – I WAS HAVING A LITTLE FUN. ALL THE BEST

    From PUMASupporter Darrell

    Obama is now using a shrewd and slick campaign marketing ploy to trick and bammboozle Hillary supporters into unifying the party, Obama want’s his supporters to help pay off Hillary’s debt so that Hillary’s supporters will help finance his campaign in the long-term, this is crooked politics at it’s best. Well, PUMAS are on to Obama’s mind games and tricks now, that’s why us Hillary supporters should only pay off Hillary’s debt without Obama and his supporters financial help, this sounds like a form of “Quid Pro Quo” to me, meaning,what Obama is really saying to Hillary and her supporters, if you help me win the Presidency I will tell my supporters to also help get rid of your debt, both Obama’s supporters and Hillary’s supporters are not listening to Obama ’s plea on this one, and I hope not a one of Hillary’s supporters donate to Obama’s campaign now or later, but only to the relief of Hillary’s debt so that when the Denver Convention comes around, Hillary does not feel obligated to Obama and be able to make her case to the Superdelegates in strong fashion with no pressure whatsoever that she’s the best candidate to challenge McCain and beat him for the Presidency.

    This African American Male Says: No Democratic Party Unity, No Obama, No Obama Donations, No Way!!

    Go Hillary, McCain, or Nader For President!!

  21. LOU

    YOU DON’T LIKE OBAMA AT ALL HUH DARRELL. DON’T HOLD BACK NOW, TELL US HOE YOU REALLY FEEL…

  22. LOU

    SORRY TYPO (HOW)

  23. Dqarrell

    Hi Lou!!

    I don’t like Obama because he’s a fraud, and don’t really know what heck he’s doing, Obama so far has flip flopped on major issues that he was one time for or against, America does not need an indecisive leader like Obama who change stances with the wind, Obama’s actions would make America a laughing stock globally. I can’t wait until the 527’s and the Republican swiftboat machine goes after him for all the lies he has told throughout this campaign, he don’t have Hillary as a buffer anymore, he’s going to have to roll with the punches or get out the ring, and so far, he’s not doing so well, he’s made many of his own supporters upset with for voting yes on Bush’s FISA bill, and befroe it’s all over, Obama is going to make many more major bloopers like this one, he’s proving out to be very inexperienced for the office of the Presidency. I hope the Superdelegates wake-up and realize that Obama is not the right African American to be America’s Commander and Chief.

    I would love to have an African American running for President who’s a little more experienced, qualified, and decisive, Obama through his behaviors and actions is definitely not ready for the big time, and PUMA supporters like myself are trying hard to block his offical nomination at the Denver DNC Convention and/or Presidency. Anyway, it’s time to see what a woman can do as President for a change, it’s always been a man in the White House it’s time for the government to be a true equal opportunity employer and let a woman have the keys to the Oval office whether she’s White or Black; it does not matter to me just as long as she’s equally qualified and experienced as a man to be our commander and chief.

    Go Hillary, McCain, or Nader For President!!

  24. Darrell

    Hi again Lou:

    Please forgive me for the typos, I’m legally blind, So I may innocently mis-type a word, I will try to do a better job proofreading my comments before posting them.

    Thanks,
