Bad Clinton Advance Work in St. Clairsville, Ohio

User Comments

no story there. just another mindless attack on Hillary Clinton. So they have a devil mascot. I bet they support their team. Did Obama the campaign circulate the picture? If it was Obama in the photo the story would be how the Clinton Campaign smeared him by circulating the picture.

The top picture is a true likeness of her.Prob did it herself to throw blame on someone else .They are NOT above dirty tactics

geevil, throw a blanket on yourself. No one is suggesting the picture represents Clinton. It’s an amusing photo; something from the “Not Necessartily the News” files. You really sound paranoid, and it makes your candidate sound paranoid, too. And I’m a Clinton supporter!

DNKY is no Clinton supporter. Just someone paranoid about a middle name.

she knows the devil’s in the details – and she’s willing to work hard to get the job done. good clinton – bad press – nothing new.

In the Texas debate Hillary tacitly consented to Obama; acknowledging his candidacy et al. What do the Obama haters want to say; hate Hillary for honoring Obama whom they hate?????

msnbc video: Obama played the race card? Look up Tucker he was the one that put this out there and did the interview I have been saying this all the time the news media passed up this one

I see there is a picture of Karl Rove in the background. This is nothing new.

Great job Jake. What made you put this picture up? The question is would you do the same if it were Obama?

Posted by: Jim | February 28, 2008, 5:13 pm 5:13 pm

Jim
No he wouldnt he didnt even start a thread about the muslim garb. Because it would make obama look bad.

You know Hillary has a great sense of humour. It’s funny and I’m sure she thinks the same thing. You know Letterman makes fun of her marriage one day and she’s sitting on his couch joking wiht him a few days later.
Obama has no haha. He sulks a pouts and screams racism when someone jokes about him. I’m sure Jon Stewart is still recieving threats as I type because he dared to make fun of Obama.
She’s way above caring about something like this.

Texas Primary Prediction Time!
Who do you predict will win the Texas Democratic Presidential Primary?

Jake! That’s great. It’s not an attack, people. it’s just a funny moment. Thanks for finding this one, Jake.

ABC, how can you call yourself news? Is this reporting? Can we please have some editorial control over what goes up? Media bias….no.

Posted by: Jim | February 28, 2008, 6:51 pm 6:51 pm

Gary, I completely agree with you. That is why this should not have showed up as a subject of a blog. Jake, are you listening?

Posted by: Jim | February 28, 2008, 6:53 pm 6:53 pm

Is that Hillary’s new mentor at the background? Hey Rove have you switched sides?

Hillary that guy behind you hasn’t offered any positive solutions.

A humorous Clinton picture is only a joke. A humorous Obama picture is described as a “smear”

Hmmm…looks like Obama has been whining again. The press is just pacifying him by posting this picture and pretending it is news. Had the picture been Obama, the Clinton camp would have been cited as the source… Check CBS news website…they have an article on Obama’s LIBERAL voting record. And the ridiculas # of times he voted present in the Senate instead of taking a stand for the people and opposing or siding with issues. Not a good record for a Presidential candidate.

YES, look in our eyes and believe! Do you not know that we know what is best for you? Join our campaign before it is too late!

I have watched the primaries and debates with great interest. I also have been amazed at how lilly white Obamah is. Infact he is so clean it scares me. Is it because he is a man and black? It just seems the media and press have joines the Washingto crowd to see to it that a woman is kept in her place. What are the boys afraid of?

Oh these pictures are SO Funny ! Ha! Ha! McCain called himself a liberal republican today too, in Texas. Equally as funny. Great campaign chuckles & sure to bring a few laughs in years to come. Lighten up everybody & get some sleep, I hope the canidates can get some sleep too. Campaign reform really needs to take place. The extrodinary amount of money & months really is too rediculous. The 2 camps need to negotiate a cost cap & amount of time. Then The media needs to be serious & give the public responsible, equal & fair reporting. Now That is Change !!!!!

The picture reflects the headline, bad advance work. Sad. I’ve done advance work, I know just how the advance team for this event are feeling tonight.

So a pic of Obama in Somali garb is ok, or no hand on the heart for the national anthem, but this is somehow a slam. It was bad advance work, but it is not Obama putting it out.

For anyone who is still not convinced that Clinton is the better choice comes November take a look at this new poll and report. Obama might have the momentum now but he won’t have it for too long. Let’s make the right choice and vote For Hillary,

Posted by: PB | February 29, 2008, 2:32 am 2:32 am

While I detest the Clintons for what they have done and have left undone, I must say I do see the double standard that she has mentioned. This circulated picture is her staff’s fault… but cross-dressing Obama pictures are a smear tactic. Obama “slams” McCain for al Qaeda remark… BUT McCain makes “sarcastic” comment regarding Obama’s al Qaeda remark.
Right now HRC is taking all the flack from the media as payback for Bill’s treatment of the Press. If HRC is defeated… Barry O’Bomber’s firewall will come down and then they will have a field day with him. (BTW = Barry O’Bomber was BHO’s nickname)

Again, one of these Hillary tricks. We are so fed up with her!!!. As a long-life democrat I will vote for Obama 08.

Posted by: Denis van Dam | February 29, 2008, 5:05 am 5:05 am

There’s no media misogyny bias. No, not at all. Run this with Obama and see how long you have a job. Just, joking right, Jake. You and the boys really don’t get it do you? Gee, you don’t have to be too smart to get your job, just have to have the right anatomy and think with that part of your anatomy.

Hello…That’s her advance teams’ mistake. Her ‘teams’ have made lots of mistakes! She wants to be President and fix everything, yet when she has the largest organization to run (her campaign), to date, she has gotten a big fat “D” ! Not an “F” yet…
She spent 140 MILLION DOLLARS for Super Tuesday…Poor Judgement! She did not organize on the ground…Poor Judgement! She spent too much money on the fluff stuff, experts-advisors,…Poor Judgement!
Obama is cleaner now just because he is! He’s fresh to all this and he has done most things correctly.
She DOES HAVE a 35 year HISTORY! And it “ain’t all that good!”.
Made all kinds of promises to New York in her Senate run, and did NOT deliver! Period! Hello….! ;-)
