Hill Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned

August 30, 2008

NY POST - Hillary's got to be seething.

Picking political unknown Sarah Palin for the No. 2 spot on the GOP ticket is opening old wounds for Barack Obama and the Democrats, a top adviser for Hillary Rodham Clinton said yesterday.

"There is much we don't know about Governor Palin," former Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said.

"But at least in the short term, it will shake up the race, and leave some asking why Senator Obama didn't pick Senator Clinton to be his veep."

Clinton's reaction was congratulatory - if perfunctory.

"We should all be proud of Governor Sarah Palin's historic nomination, and I congratulate her and Senator McCain," she said in a statement. "While their policies would take America in the wrong direction, Governor Palin will add an important new voice to the debate."

Former vice-presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman to garner the nomination - as a Democrat - came out in support of Palin.

"Without Hillary being the nominee, it's really quite equally as important," Ferraro, a disgruntled supporter of Clinton during the Democratic primary, wrote on a Fox News blog yesterday.

"There are a lot of women who are disaffected by how Hillary was treated by the media, by how she was treated by the Obama campaign . . . not speaking up when sexism raised its ugly head in the media."

Other experts praised Palin as a great pick.

"It's an absolutely brilliant choice," said Mathew Staver, dean of Liberty University School of Law.

"This will absolutely energize McCain's campaign and energize conservatives."

    Palin, is honest, beautiful, tough and no nonsense.

    Hillary by contrast fabricates stories at will, is ugly as sin, and is a BS artist of the third kind.

    Barrack pick Clinton, get serious will you.

    There are many ass kissers in the U>S. who idolize Hillary, as Grmans did with another lyer, Hitler..

    Historic? Yes, congrats to the Republicans, who finally put a woman on the ticket 24 years after the Democrats did, and only as a cynical play for votes of FOH (not Friends of Hillary, but rather, Frustrated Old Hags).

Got something to say?
