Really, why would anyone vote for the senile old fart and the lying witch primarily responsible for 9/11 ("well the report didn't say what airlines Bin Laden was planning on using... and it didn't have an exact date...")?

It's too bad the video didn't include Hillary's response. I would have been curious what she would have to say. Or Obama, for that matter, if he was asked the same question. The arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice. --Martin Luther King, Jr.
She said that she wants a Democrat to win, but that, in political campaigns, the object is to beat the other person. Basically, she's saying she has nothing to apologize for. I wish she had been a little more understanding about this.
Alienating black voters by making race an issue and sicking Geraldine Ferraro on Obama; insulting small states, "latte-sipping" states and Red states by saying they don't matter; making an issue of the Florida and Miichigan elections after agreeing that those primaries wouldn't count; and claiming that John McCain has crossed the "commander-in-chief test" are all pretty near-sighted and self-serving.
All these things -- except the Michigan and Florida issue -- could hurt Democrats at downticket races across the country if she were the candidate, and could potentially come back to hurt Clinton herself in a general election.
If Obama wins the election, she'll have to go back to her voters and say "that was just politics ... I didn't mean it" if she wants to help the Democrat win. She'll have to give some sort of an "apology."
But, I am glad you came and so happy you are involved, because I'd rather that you be involved even if you are not for me than to be apathetic and be uninvolved.
Words like these don't seem like such a scorched-earth mentality to me. At this point, I would prefer that the Democrats rally around a nominee and save their dollars for the general election as opposed to tearing each other apart (Obama vs. Clinton) with precious monies which could be spent more efficiently after the convention. But, Hillary Rodham Clinton does not look as bad as many in MLN accuse her to be with just viewing the "6 min version" vid Scarce has provided.
Still, IMHO, if Hillary does not make a big dent on Obama's delegate and popular vote count after Pennsylvania, I would hope she uses her political prowess for an exit strategy to leave her campaign without letting her ardent supporters seem to be hanging out high and dry. The arc of history is long, but it bends toward justice. --Martin Luther King, Jr.
But of course that's what he meant and she knew it. She simply failed to answer the question. For 6+ minutes.
