GOP: Here's to Hillary's big party!

Nothing would delight Republicans more than for the Clintons to upstage Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention.

    AKA Smith

    "I want to congratulate Joe Biden on becoming the vice presidential running nominee. Joe is a friend and colleague, a strong experienced leader and a devoted public servant. I look forward to not only seeing him in Denver next week but on the trail as I work to help Barack Obama and Joe Biden along with many other Democratic candidates campaign this fall.

    Democrats are going to have a great and unified convention in Denver next week, and I can't wait to be there. I am looking forward to visiting my friends and colleagues from New York, stopping by events like the Emily's List reception, and doing everything I can to champion Barack Obama along the way. Of course, I will also be getting ready for my speech to the convention on Tuesday night. You can see for yourself by following my convention activities on our website at HillaryClinton.com, as well as on social networking sites such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter"----Hillary Clinton

    Thank you for the comment, but as a Democrat for far too long and a staunch supporter of Hillary, I was not going to sit down for this Hillary bashing to continue and damage my party by someone who later claimed not to belong to the party regardless of him using another pseudonym. You can see and hear it all over the media even when it should be Obama's convention the media and the talking heads want to emphasize the supposed rift with Clinton emphasizing the negatives and making Clinton the story. I am not taking any of that as I do not want to see another Republican in the white house. I am tired of what happened to Gore and Kerry with the complicity of these people and the media putting Bush in power and destroying this country for my kids and grandkids.

    The above quotes are from Hillary Clinton and I hope it will serve as a buffer against the anti-hillary rhetorics from not only some Obama supporters here but some of Salon's own writers.
