Comments on: Fortune Forum alum Silky slams Hillary for Fortune cover

Try actually reading the speach that he gave in 2002. He’s basically spitting in the faces of the big-timer’s a Fortune. If you read the speech, you’ll see that it is consistent with his current platform.

HuffPo made the same mistake of siting a speech without actually going through the trouble of reading it.

I know that Edwards is public enemy No. 1, here, but criticize him with accurate facts, not assumptions.

Also, review the quote from last night. That was misrepresented here and at HuffPo.

Does he have anyone, besided Mrs. Pony Phony, to help with research? Does he think nothing can hurt him with the “new center of American politics (nutroots)? Many of those commenters at HuffPo are sticking up for Silky on this one. As they did the last one. And they most likely will the next one.

“I have it on very, very good authority that major opposition research has already been conducted on Bill Clinton, and it’s going to be a massive smear campaign against him…. they are going to try to cripple Hillary through Bill.”

This is trypical Democratic strategy, isn’t it? Run against someone (in this case, Bill Clinton) who isn’t even running for office!!
They’re doing the same thing for Republicans, throwing in George W. Bush, who isn’t even running!
How clueless can you get!

Save it for the general election please.

I loved this comment from “Misanthrope2″:

The wing nuts are scared sh*tless of an Edwards candidacy.

That’s true. Because an Edwards candidacy would mean a defeat so devastating that the Democratic Party might just go under, and no one’s for one-party rule.

When dems and their minions attack it is showing hypocracy. When conservatives do research it is a smear. I hate lefties.

we need a candidate that has no ethics issues

Mother Teresa passed away. NOTE: That did not however, discourage Hillary from using her image in a campaign video. The Clintons, taking spin to ~~unthinkable levels~~ the bank.

The dems have the moral high ground on the reps in 08 as far as ethics goes. (even if they didn't, the msm would make sure they did) So, we need a candidate that has no ethics issues to speak of. I'm not sure about Rudy, but I'm pretty sure Mitt! has a decent record. I know for a fact that fred? is proud of his business as usual Washington insider behavior of hiring your family to funnel money from your PAC into their pockets.

ok so now i am tres confused…WHO, then do the
Arianna Puffen-on-stuff types actually support in the Dem primary?

Obama? Dennis the Menace? Nutroots Ned Lamont??? WHO???

they hate the Silky One and they hate the Lady-who-wouldnt-even-be-a-Senator-much-less-a-Presidential-contender-if-her-name-wasnt-Clinton.

?????

my guess is that once she gets the nomination, HuffPo will get behind Hillary 100,000%. I dislike Edwards more every day, though.

A brilliant new campaign strategy from the Edwards camp is a’brewing?…

The Huffington Post (gag me with a silver spoon) delivers a diamond-ringed slap to John Edwards by showing another example of his duplicity in regards to being the littlest trial lawyer against big business.
First the relevant quote from ABC:
Answering…

This is the aged wife of an impeached president, who claims she had no idea that her husband was molesting other women and diddling a young staffer with cigars. She’s running against a “Brother” decrying Black America and talking like a Southerner, who was raised by Whites in Hawaii after his African born father took off, and a metro-sexual, political pimple with Troll doll hair.

If the Republican party can’t come up with a candidate to beat this line-up, this country is in end-game. The experiment with democracy is over, let’s move on to strong leadership.

For the oppo research angle, you should really go to the link with the full story and read the whole sordid affair, so to speak.

The “they” in “they are going to cripple…” are a group of former intelligence officers. See 3rd from last paragraph.
