(June 17, 2008): "Clinton, Obama to make joint appearance next week" (CNN)

[GaGirl]

Hillary will appear at a fundraiser with BO in Washington.

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/06/17/clinton-obama-to-make-first-joint-appearance-since-primary-season/


I have such mixed feelings about this. I know she has to do this but I can't stand the thought of her getting up there with him.

[LetsHelpAmerica]

Gag!!!!!!!!!!!!

[memphis]

Gag!!!!!!!!!!!!
I second that.

[Brooke]

Well at least she waited 3 weeks.

Hopefully it's the only appearance they'll have.

[joeysky18]

I have such mixed feelings about this. I know she has to do this but I can't stand the thought of her getting up there with him.

I know. I just want to shield her away from BO. I know that she has no other choice. But she is really a big person to play her part with grace.

When they are on the stage together, it just going to compare & contrast the 2 of them and show how she outshines him and more suitable to lead the country.

I'll be more mad at DNC.

I have such mixed feelings about this. I know she has to do this but I can't stand the thought of her getting up there with him.

She'll probably focus most of her speech on the issues and then throw in a hasty, insincere "support Obama" at the end. I cannot in a million years believe that she actually wants people to vote for that creep.

[Brooke]

He better not touch her. I always squirmed when he'd reach over and touch her arm or something during the debates and she'd look at him like "Um, can you NOT touch me, please?"

On another note, the other "Battle of Chicago" starts on Sunday, Cubs/White Sox series. GO CUBBIES!!! :D

[Brooke]

She'll probably focus most of her speech on the issues and then throw in a hasty, insincere "support Obama" at the end. I cannot in a million years believe that she actually wants people to vote for that creep.

I don't either. I think she and Bill will probably vote for John McCain in the fall.

[nette60]

I wish she would go Independent...Better yet I wish she would run with McCain

[Mrs L]

:mad:
I can't accept that Hillary will be supporting and campaigning for Obama, while we are fighting for her, talk about Party Unity.

I was hoping she would wait until after the convention.:confused:

[Brooke]

Guys, check the threads before posting. I'm not a mod but this is really irritating.

Edit: It's merged. But seriously, we're trying to make the mods' jobs a bit easier here.

[Morgan]

Someone take notes, I don't think I can watch it.

[santafegal]

I can only imagine how she feels. Where is the barf icon?
http://www.freewebby.com/beer-food-sick-smilies/puke.gif

[Vici57]

I hope her big money supporters don't contribute to Obama. I with everyone else, he just makes my skin crawl! YUK!

[Soren]

she will outshine him and it will be the last time they will be seen together.

[Soaring Eagle]

The thought of Hillary campaining for that criminal makes my skin crawl!

[Peppermint Patty]

Well hopefully they won't boo her when she takes the stage like those Nobamabot a**holes did last night in MI. Disgraceful. I'm sure they're booing her because her supporters, US, will not vote for their robot.

[suerw]

Read and left a comment. In effect that I campaigned and voted for Hillary but don't support Obama because he is not qualified to be President and I will be voting McCain.

[Jen the Michigander]

:mad:
[B]I can't accept that Hillary will be supporting and campaigning for Obama, while we are fighting for her, talk about Party Unity.

What other choice does Hillary have? It's too late for her to run as an independent, and I don't think she would dump the Dems, anyhow. So she's either plotting some August surprise and is playing nice in the meanwhile or else she's setting herself up for 2012. Either way, she can't piss of the Party. That's OUR job.

[santafegal]

I hope not.

[Angelica91]

Please, tell me it's a nightmare....:(

[ScottVA]

I think personally that it's a disaster for her to get anywhere near him........BUT I think professionally it can only make her look better (IE Party Unity) when the stone turns and suddenly she's thrust back into this thing! She always out does him so while hard to watch it might also be amusing at the same time! LOL Don't forget she's an old pro and he's a infant at all of this stuff!

[joeysky18]

What other choice does Hillary have?

Either way, she can't piss of the Party. That's OUR job.

Exactly right. We are Hillary's voice now.

[HRCin08/GeekLove]

but deep down, she's like Tina Fey in this video at 8:12

I am posting it again in case we need reminding why Obama should not be president.

YouTube - NO DEAL: Join The Coalition of Millions

[UpstateNYRN]

This was my post on the site. Lets see if it gets on.


"How on earth can anyone support Obama to hold the most powerful position in the world after listening to the constant double talk, excuses, and endless stammering coming from a man who surrounds himself with hate mongers and crooks. I am stunned that people will not leave their emotion out of it long enough to really look at this man. I don't care what Hillary or anyone else says, I cannot support such a person. Is there no more integrity? Has our country really fallen so low that we are willing to ignore such danger signs? Perhaps Pastor Wright's comments have come to pass, and God has damned America."

[Angelica91]

I hope it's only an appearance....:mad:
Hillary please, don't join with that man:mad:

[AA4Hillary]

...it sucks that she has to do that, but I gues its a no-win situation. damned if you do, damned if you dont!! :(

Aww..I love this video!!!

[swannyj]

Well, I have to admit I am having a hard time not being disappointed that Hillary is going to campaign for him. I guess it could be worse though...she could be VP. However if that happens, I'm sorry but I will loose some of my respect for her.

[B positive]

Funny how CNN closes comments whenever too many anti-Obama ones come in! I will send HRC a note of condolences on her upcoming appearance w/ FLUFF.

Thanks to the person who posted the No Deal video!

[Morgan]

Everyone who is voting for BO should have to watch this video.

[Amy Dugan]

well i also heard that hillary's finance people (whom i know) will reach out to me (a maxed out Hillary donor) to donate that same maxed out amount to Obama. I think I know the purpose of the conference call this thurs with Hillary set up through finance. I will tell Terry McAuliffe anbout the nasty replies I got to my first email with link to Hillary's Sat support speech. Many of my Hillary supporters are Reagan dems and last time they voted dem was Bill Clinton and now will vote McCain

Maybe we should email her and tell her not to appear with him!!! I just don't see how this is going to work! If the crowd ends up cheering for her - he will be all huffy if he is not the center of attention!

Hey, maybe what we should do is make sure that whenever they appear in public (Lets hope its only a few appearances) that we flood the audience with her local supporters cheering whenever she is speaking and silent when he speaks - as in silent protest. Show his supporters what jerks they are but not acting like the juveniles we know them to be.

We need to make sure to have a lot of HRC supporters attend anytime they are together so that they can cheer when she speaks and be silent when he speaks!!! I think silent protests will "voice" our feelings for him while showing support for her -which is ultimately our goal.

I think it is great to see that there are A LOT OF PEOPLE outside this Forum that are not supporting BO. Good to see "unfamiliar names" in support of her!!

[We_Count]

Tomorrow Larry Sinclair is holding his national press club press release from 1-5 et... sooo maybe plans will change.

[Brooke]

My question is, if this Larry Sinclair thing blows up tomorrow, will she still go on stage with him?

Even without that, if she knows something like a lot of us think she does, I can't see her doing all that many appearances with him. Regardless of "party unity" and she'd be doing her "job", it'd be risky to attach herself too much to him. I mean, look at all the Dems who refuse to go anywhere near him already.

[Brooke]

Done, did all three.

[jerseygirl7]

...it sucks that she has to do that, but I gues its a no-win situation. damned if you do, damned if you dont!! :(


Not sure why she HAS to DO IT! Did the others HAVE to DO IT! Doesn't appear that she is in the running for VP (thank goodness) so why does she HAVE to DO IT!!!! After all that we heard from her on the campaign trail about why Obama is not qualified to be President, how can she NOW say she thinks he is qualified???
What has happened in two weeks to suddenly make him qualified.

We all know what she said was the truth, why are we going to believe that suddenly he is qualified????? Seems crazy for her to do it. And because she tells us to vote for him, she should know we are saying NO DEAL! Makes no sense.

[Mrsawd]

I hope she stops belittling herself soon !

[evolin]

Well as a horse that has "blinders" applied to keep him or her from being distracted by frightning distractions, I think we need to apply them to ourselves the rest of this campaign.
We need to soldier on for the right cause and the right person, looking neither left or right at the distractions being dangled out in front of us.
We KNOW what they have done to Hillary and to us and our goals for the country. Nothing they can say or do now can undo it. We see even the ungoing hate spewed by BOs audiences and followers. Maybe they will learn to hide it temporarily but we know their hearts.....and their hearts and minds are now twisted by this terrible urge to get their candidate in power - at all costs.
They do not care how Hillary is trashed or how her supporters feel. They just want to win and then gloat over winning.
Only when the country suffers will minds and hearts change..but it will be too late.
I will march on and if Hillary is not the nominee, I will have no qualms, or hesitation in voting for McCain to keep this unwanted person and his followers from power.

[PuppyDogMom]

Well, it sure is a no-win situation. If Hillary supports him and he doesn't win, it'll be her fault for not supporting him enough. If she doesn't support him and he doesn't win, that'll be her fault, too.

There's such a thing as blind loyalty. At some point you have to stand up for what is right. I cannot believe that Hillary would do this. My guess is that we're starting to annoy the Obamabots and they don't know what else to do but beg Hillary to show support.

Won't work.

[Charlie Brown]

I know. I just want to shield her away from BO. I know that she has no other choice. But she is really a big person to play her part with grace.

When they are on the stage together, it just going to compare & contrast the 2 of them and show how she outshines him and more suitable to lead the country.

I'll be more mad at DNC.

LIKE HELL SHE DOESNT HAVE A CHOICE...AND WE ALL KNOW THAT!!!!AFTER ALL THAT HAS BEEN SAID AND DONE TO HER BY THAT S.O.B...I WOULD TELL HIM TO GO TO HELL..ALONG WITH THE DNC....:mad::mad::mad::mad:

[Kbentleyis]

Well, we've got Larry Sinclair tomorrow... let's see where that takes us. Let's not get down about this. We know she has to keep up appearances. We can still support her from afar.

[El Cuco]

No No No , I wish she would take a slow cruise around the world and never have to stand next to that man in any event. I know she has to, I just hate it! I will be out of the country for 2 weeks, I hope they don't have CNN in my hotel.

[Amy Dugan]

Well You are not going to like this


I will probably get a list of low-dollar fundraising events to promote throughout the country in which both will be. If at least 20 go to each and shout Hillary All the Way!!We will not stoop as low as Obama supporters who booed governor of MI when she mentioned her support for Hillary.


we can do this all over the country with the common theme.

FREE rallies will happen with both of them AFTER the convention so Hillary All the Way will only work only before Denver.

[JOY TO THE WORLD]

Just the mere thought of Hillary supporting Obama makes my skin itch. News reported that she would be asking her financial backers to help the DNC and Obama--I think Hillary needs to call out sick. :(

We need to attend these events and cheer for Hillary - Hillary all the Way is FINE- but BE SILENT when he speaks! We should have enough firmly commited HRC supporters to accomplish this!!!

[GaGirl]

Many of us are having a hard time with a Hillary/Obama appearance.

http://hillbuzz.blogspot.com/

[Brooke]

I would love to participate in these events but probably won't for two reasons:

1) I don't have the money to contribute to anybody right now
2) I don't trust myself in the same room as Barack Obama.

[PuppyDogMom]

I sure as hell hope she's not going to release her delegates.

[Amy Dugan]

of course you know you have to donate to obama to attend. that is what you all will not like

[joeysky18]

of course you know you have to donate to obama to attend. that is what you all will not like

That will be the main reason for me. No money to BO & DNC.

We may stand outside with HRC for Prez sign.

[santafegal]

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iAYkzXs_FCJ1maQUFSSArJOHHuNwD91C6E200

There is more information about the appearance at this link. Apparently these big donors are not happy at all.

[jerseygirl7]

of course you know you have to donate to obama to attend. that is what you all will not like


HELL NO! Then she is on her own! I am all for supporting her by being there but not if one penny goes to him. That's where I personally draw the line! I am not intimidated by his supporters - hell we in Jersey are tough cookies :-)
- but money to that lying sack of sh.t - not from me!!!!
Wow, that got me riled up!!! I may have to send another email Howie to calm down.

[ALL4HILLARY]

:mad:

I am confused and irritated. I do not want to be upset with Hillary but she would be better take the Libberman road and keep her head and her believes high.

AND BY THE WAY WHAT DO YOU ALL MAKE FROM THE "I'll be in touch soon" line. They mension this in NYDailyNews today also, from an email that Hillary sent out for us

Hillary for President



Dear Andy,

Together, you and I changed America forever. We touched so many lives over the course of this campaign, and I can't thank you enough for the support you showed me. I met so many wonderful people out on the trail, and I wanted to share some of those memories with you.

I hope you'll take a moment to view our online album with some favorite photos from the campaign. (http://links.hillaryclinton.com/ctt?kn=1&m=1107346&r=NjUyMDMwMDEyMQS2&b=0&j=MTExNjc0MTUzS0&mt=1)

Thank you so much -- I'll be in touch soon.

Sincerely,
Hillary
Hillary Rodham Clinton

LIKE HELL SHE DOESNT HAVE A CHOICE...AND WE ALL KNOW THAT!!!!AFTER ALL THAT HAS BEEN SAID AND DONE TO HER BY THAT S.O.B...I WOULD TELL HIM TO GO TO HELL..ALONG WITH THE DNC....:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Yes, we may want that. Or we may do that ourselves.

But that's now how politics works - especially at that high level.

That's why many people get turned off politics because much of it involves people having to say/do things they do not believe in, but they do so because that's what the "party" demands or requires. Maybe HC has take some time off to muster up the strength to bite her tongue while she goes through this period of having to "support" a candidate that she knows tried to destroy her reputation and who cheated her (thus far) of the nomination.

If she wishes to stay in the "party", she has no choice but to tow the party line. Otherwise she would be outcasted and forced to leave.

[samkm]

This is why we need to find ways to retire her debt.. Anything we possibly can put in.. And, if we are maxed out, we have to find others who can put in the money..

[Morgan]

We need to attend these events and cheer for Hillary - Hillary all the Way is FINE- but BE SILENT when he speaks! We should have enough firmly commited HRC supporters to accomplish this!!!

The problem is, you would have to donate, to BO to get in the fundraiser.:mad:

[joeysky18]

This is why we need to find ways to retire her debt.. Anything we possibly can put in.. And, if we are maxed out, we have to find others who can put in the money..

COrrect! When we retire her debt, she can make her next move more freely.

Our donation will shape her political career.

[PA_Voter]

Many of us are having a hard time with a Hillary/Obama appearance.

http://hillbuzz.blogspot.com/
--------
I agree... Guess we'll just have to keep the TV unplugged!

Maybe we can keep Hillary occupied by having "Retire The Debt Fundraisers" with the condition that she doesn't bring up BO's name... We ask that her agenda to be discussing what she envisions happening for the next 4 years.... We keep her running and she won't have any time to appear with BO!

[carmaken]

But we knew this day would come. Hillary is such a strong woman. She will handle herself with class and dignity just like she always does.

Look at another way, the heat is off her. BO has to watch his every move and everything that comes out of his mouth (and his wife's). The heat is on him more than ever. He is making one mistake after another, showing his inexperience on the world stage of politics.

I will watch just to see her rise above him.

[UpstateNYRN]

I see CNN closed the freaking comments just before mine was to be posted. Cowardly bastards! Obama has enough on him right now to get most sitting presidents calls for impeachment, yet he remains the Democratic candidate. Maybe Hillary as the VP would turn into the number one seat after they throw his ass out. At some point all of this will have to come to light. It is impossible for me to believe that the entire American media is as corrupt as anything seen in third world countries run by dictators. :eek:

[NYVIN4HILL08]

don't watch, i still wont vote for it, i wouldnt votefor it if jesus christ told me to. and i definately won't give anything to dnc.

[Justmy.02]

I love Hillary, but I WILL NOT donate to his campaign and I will NOT vote for him. I know she's doing what must be done, but I can't go against my conscience and vote for someone who is so wrong for America. There is just too much evidence of corruption and a personal and big power, big money agenda.

[RE:]

Aww..I love this video!!!

I second that!!!! This video is FANNNTASTIC!!!! It needs to be posted everywhere...

[erasmus]

Let's take a long term view. She will have to harvest the votes of former Obamites when she is the nominee in 2012.

[Amy Dugan]

he has to lose to mccain if the democratic party and policies of bill clinton are to be maintained. we never win with leftists and bill clinton won TWICE as a centrist. we must stop obama ofr it will end the clintons

[carmaken]

You are so right, Amy. This is the hand we have been dealt.

[Brooke]

he has to lose to mccain if the democratic party and policies of bill clinton are to be maintained. we never win with leftists and bill clinton won TWICE as a centrist. we must stop obama ofr it will end the clintons

Excellent post. Yet the DNC keeps nominating LEFTIST candidates. Go figure.

[Optixmom]

You can attend these rallies, but stay outside. You don't have to go in and pay money to Obama. Just by being there, outside, in your Hillary gear, you let them know that you mean business.

Hillary will find out that you are there. You don't even have to chant or rally. Just physically be outside all decorated for Hillary. The press will see you and ask you why you are there. You can say to support Hillary.

[Tim4Hillary]

to many of those!

[Bad Kitty]

And if they ask you who you will vote for in Nov. if Hillary is not a choice, look them in the eye, smile and say MCCAIN.

[evelynj]

Time is reporting this. The actual details talk about just one event so I'm not sure how that qualifies as campaigning together, but I don't like it anyway.

http://thepage.time.com/2008/06/20/clinton-obama-to-campaign-together/

[jbohio]

is also reporting that the two will campaign together next Friday

[PA_Voter]

Unfortunately, she's going to have to appear for her supporters to show up to BO events... She gave her word that the party will come together and that she would throw her support behind BO and that's what she'll have to do.

Just ignore any praise of BO, it's Just Forced Words!

[SusanfromPA]

Obama & Clinton to campaign together next week
A short-and-sweet announcement from Democrat Barack Obama's presidential campaign just a few minutes ago:

Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton announced today that they will campaign together on Friday, June 27th. Further details to be announced soon.


The day before, they're due to be together in Washington to meet with some of her top fundraisers.

[Hillarysmygirl08]

barf well she has to do the Party Unity thing. Now I would suggest that noone show up? here is what I am thinking? If we show up then we will be basically making her campaign for him but if we stay home or show up to protest loudly whereever they are. This will send a message that she cannot help him.

[CGP]

Merged.

[EH]

I understand that she has to down this castor oil cause "it's politics", but not even if she came round to my house and begged me would I vote for him!

[Hillarysmygirl08]

I do not think anyone should show up to these event because if you do you send a clear message that she can help him win. I am saying to boycott any joint appearence between the two. This will hurt our cause and if we show up we might as well just kiss August goodbye. it would be 2012 for sure

[Hillarysmygirl08]

Also if you do not want her to campaign for him if you show up they will continue to make her campaign for him. She has to do this for her own good. They will try to kill her career. I personally would prefer for her to become a Republican and run on McCains ticket.

[wildheart4mcpalin]

Don't worry, Jolene- you know it's just politics, and stinky BO will probably do something to embarrass himself and piss off more on-the-fence voters and hopefully more SDs so to cinch the nomination for our gal. :) Stay strong and don't watch- unless you are wanting to lose weight and don't mind vomiting profusely. :p

I agree with you 100%!!!!!

[mjoynaples]

ClintonFan1992;190322]He better not touch her. I always squirmed when he'd reach over and touch her arm or something during the debates and she'd look at him like "Um, can you NOT touch me, please?"


what can we send her or write her to say hang in there and grimmace a lot we know you have to do this and we are with you and looking forwrd to DENVER and FIRST ROLL CALL WHEN YOU WILL BE THE NOMINEE!!!!

[martreasures]

I cant stand the fact that now after trashing all the Clintons for months telling her daily through the media to just go away, now they are making her cowdown to Obama in the most public way, have you no shame...woman should be outraged at this and stop it... Its make me so angry that the DNC wants to pinp her this way.. we all know what a farce this is, its more disgraceful then FL & MI.. flabbergasted!!!!!

[Musicdude]

:mad:
I can't accept that Hillary will be supporting and campaigning for Obama, while we are fighting for her, talk about Party Unity.

I was hoping she would wait until after the convention.:confused:
yeah, but she'll just be "posturing" as part of a political position for career purposes. She knows the voter position is different. Plus, she has a way of "supporting" him while still showing she has been the only right choice all along. Her speeches and actions are clever that way.

[Amy Dugan]

anybody that CAN go should wearing Hillary gear OR make shirts that say HILLARY ALL THE WAY Signs will not be permitted so shirts are the way to go. Hillary needs to see that we are NOT afraid, we will do this in front of her and Obama. Obama will think, oh shit, this unifying the party is not going well. REMEMBER her phone call yesterday was recorded and she said "I am full support to Obama and I hope you will too". So now when we keep showing up SHE WILL NOT BE TO BLAME FOR OUR LACK OF UNITY because she covered her ass with her speech Sat and phone call yesterday.


THIS MUST BE DONE. So for those near QUIT BLOGGING AND GO DO SOMETHING THAT WILL GET NOTICED!!!!

I hope you're right because if Hillary will really "campaign" for him, it'll be a great disappointment!:(

I hope they boo her like they did in Detroit the other night so then she has an excuse to never campaign with him, again. She could cite safety reaasons.

I love it.....find a reason! Any reason will do. Boo Bama! (and Michele) and MSM! And Clinton's campaign Director for 1st 10 months!!

Clinton for President! 2008

I cannot accept that. The second Hillary appears beside him and hands over her support base and asks people to support him, she has, as far as I am concerned, thrown me/us under the bus. Those, and there are many, who don't have computers and only have the tv media for info, are going to believe "well, Hillary supports him so I will vote for him".

If she can do this, for political reasons, then it has all been a sham. She cannot have it both ways. She does this, I am no longer behind her. I cannot accept her going in with that cesspool that is now the crooked democrat party and stand up and support that man.

There is a line to be drawn in how far a person's integrity can be stretched, and doing this, all her integrity goes down the drain. I will not be able to ever trust her word again after this.

I'm confused, when she said she'd do anything to help Obama get elected, why should it be a surprise then that she'd actually do it? We've seen this coming, for miles, and it looks like only some of us have steeled ourselves against the inevitable. Sure, when she does that it will make it official, but our mission is deconstructing the DNC before anything else. If Hillary runs back in the building while it's be demolished, we'll, so be it. Hate to sound so incredibly harsh, but either Hillary is "winking and nodding" or she's really supporting him. If it's the latter it simply doesn't matter because it's not about her, anymore.

This is just my opinion, but our mission is bigger than her. If she wants to continue the fight we'll be behind her 110%, but if she doesn't, we have other things to attend to, period. Either way, we win. We have to look out for our own self-preservation.

Will have have a flag bearer following him around with his new Obamaland flag? Maybe a couple of trumpets to sound his arrival? Or will Howard Dean be there to roll out the red carpet for him?

...and Donna Brazile to throw rose petals on his feet as he walks?

I am disgusted and I don't mind saying so. For months I listened to both Hillary and Obama, and I trusted and believed in Hillary, while I became more and more disgusted by the dirty tricks, name-calling, nastiness and cheating from Ob.

So now, he managed to hijack the party, steal the DNC to his own back yard where his hired thugs have control, has unlimited access to cash he does not have to account for, has threatened other democrats re-elections if they don't get with him, and I could go on,,,

I have a line I will not cross, regardless. Hillary may have been pressured to make that speech saying she is suspending and that she gives her support to Ob, but it turned my stomach. Just how important is it to her to stay in the game, when the game is rigged? At what point does Hillary say "you know what? I refuse to give up my morals and condone this. I refuse to "go along to get along" when it means I have to get down into this vileness".

I would have cheered her had she done that.

But to actually go out to help him publicly? Tell people to support him? Go campaign for him? No. If she intends to get into the mud with thieves and dirty dealings, don't ask me to follow along.

I don't blame Hillary. She is a Democrat through and through. Her husband was a Democratic President. She can't turn her back on her party or the party of her husband. I also think she knows she has to reinforce her position now, and make another run in 2012. If she stabs the party in the back now, they are not going to support her running in 4 more years. She will do what she has to do, and so will we. This 1 of 18 million is already blogging on John McCain's site, and there are a whole lot of us. We need to make sure Obama looses in November. That is when we can start working for HIllary again for 2012.

By standing up for her party and not turning her back on such corruption and hatred she is more or less sending the signal that those things are okay with her. Each day that passes shows Obama up more and more for what he is and what he stands for. If Hillary stands by his side then people will automatically assume that she approves. As far as her stabbing the party in the back, they've already done that to her and I doubt that many think they would ever stand behind her for any reason, at any time. Why would they have driven her out of the race and handed it to a nobody with no qualifications other than the fact that he felt it was his. Personally I feel that Hillary's value in the Democratic Party has been decided on and neither she nor anyone else can change it.
