carlfense Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I keep seeing this in headlines and stories . . . do none of these purported journalists care that this isn't what was said? I didn't expect the right-wing propaganda machine to find their next "you didn't build that" so quickly. Link to comment
sd'sker Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 i do not follow the news too much, but it does seem kind of like a weird talking point. i get that they want to seem relate-able, but it seems like an overreaction to romney's 47% debacle. i mean, they are successful, why hide it? and the more you try to, the more disingenuous they come off. but like i said, i do not follow the news too much. i do like hilary, but she always seems so fake to me during the softball interviews.

sd'sker Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 i do like hilary, but she always seems so fake to me during the softball interviews. She's not quite a natural, is she? i think she just tries too hard to say the most acceptable thing. like if you ask her what her favorite movie is, it is going to be the top box office family film out. things like that, and i get it is a hard position because you do not want to offend, but she plays it so safe it just seems insincere and like pandering. i think she comes off fairly natural, but it is hard to buy. obama shared that his favorite show was the wire and favorite character was omar for pete's sake. that's some real sh#t i can get behind. 1 Link to comment

He only said that because The Wire is inarguably the best show of all time . . . and Omar is one of the best characters ever. Link to comment

Williams is concerned, Chalky White is better than Omar. But again, I have only watched the first 8 episodes of season 1. Link to comment

Yep, I don't think we've seen the real Hillary Clinton in years. It's like watching an actor play a part, and while I get that every politician plays a role in front of the camera, she seems exceptionally fake to me. She's clearly in politics because that's the career she chose. Her stint in the Senate, that carpet-bagging BS of "I live in New York" was one of the most transparent pieces of merde I've seen in a long time. I don't know what disgusted me more - the fact that she tried that stunt or that the idiot voters of New York elected her. At least Nebraskans were smart enough to see through Bob Kerry and sent him packing his carpet bags. Small miracles. Link to comment

tschu Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Hillary seems like a bad campaigner Fortunately her entire campaign is pretty much laid out for her, she'll be reasonably good in the debates, she'll have little primary pressure, and her opposition is all sorts of discombobulated. If Barack Obama, the GOAT campaigner, was running for his first term in 2016 he would absolutely crush. Landslide win. Hillary should still win, but anything can happen. For the time being (and forever, really) she should just STFU about her money and her private life. That doesn't seem hard. Link to comment

So she gets asked questions about her money and private life and she refuses to answer. Now she's hiding something. She can't win either way. 1 Link to comment
