Update: ‘Disillusioned liberals yearn for Hillary’; Gallup shows Hillary now more popular than Obama; so the media hounds immediately try to tear her down…

Update: Told ya so. And let me add Hillary was also a free market capitalist, a big frakkin plus!

Chris Stirewalt:

Where were you when you came to the panicky realization that Hillary Clinton was right?

For me, it was while driving to work one recent morning and talking with a colleague about the state of the health legislation. I was explaining how the Obama plan wasn’t really about universal coverage but rather cutting a deal with the insurance industry and then making it look good for liberals. I paused, realizing that I had just repeated, almost verbatim, the lines that Clinton used to bludgeon  then-Sen. Barack Obama during the Democratic primaries.

As they debated in Cleveland — the nastiest of their one-on-one matchups after John Edwards dropped out to spend more time with his families — Clinton charged that Obama wouldn’t play tough enough and would get rolled by the insurance industry. Her words came back to me: “Senator Obama’s plan does not cover everyone. It would leave, give or take, 15 million people out.”

I expected to look into the rearview mirror and see her sitting in the back seat cackling and wearing that suit that looked like it had been plucked from the wardrobe trailer of “Star Trek: The Next Generation.”….

…That’s why so many liberals are now remembering Clinton’s other line from the Ohio primary of March 2008: “Shame on you, Barack Obama.”

Most conservatives had their moment of regret for Clinton’s loss long ago when they realized that Obama was completely out his depth….For those on the Right chiefly concerned with foreign policy, the lament about Clinton’s miserable campaign continues to deepen. They believe that radical Islam and Vladimir Putin will prove to be tougher adversaries than the insurance industry and the senior senator from Maine. The defense-minded Right is still thinking about the 3 a.m. call, and not the one from the Nobel Committee….

…But conservatives know that they never would have had a chance with Clinton. Where Obama has overfilled his plate like a kid at Thanksgiving dinner and now stares at an unappetizing mountain of cold mashed potatoes, Clinton would have taken measured bites and finished the whole feast….

…But had she won, there’s no doubt that she would have ground up the bones of her enemies and baked chocolate chip cookies with them. Obama, though, has proven to be the only person who could make the GOP look reasonable again after the misadventures of the Bush years. Conservatives can console themselves with the thought of 2010 and beyond.

For liberals, though, the strange, sad longing for the woman they rejected has only just begun.

So this morning we find in GALLUP that Hillary is now more popular than Obama. Coincidentally the Daily Beast which has ignored Hillary’s succesful work on the Armenia/Turkey accords and in No Ireland, suddenly picks up a story from a Hillary basher overseas suggesting Hill is making up ‘bosnia’ like stories again. What utter TOOLZ FOR TOTUS!!

A new Gallup poll shows that the number of people who have a favorable impression of Barack Obama has fallen to its lowest point since he became president. Fifty-six percent say they have a favorable impression of Obama, versus 40 percent who say they have an unfavorable impression. (Four percent say they have no opinion.) Historically, a president’s personal favorable rating has often been higher than his job approval rating; right now, Gallup has Obama’s job approval at 52 percent.

…Gallup points out that in this latest survey, Hillary Clinton is now more popular than Obama. Sixty-two percent say they have a favorable impression of the Secretary of State, versus 34 percent who have an unfavorable impression. That’s a big change from the height of the battle for the Democratic nomination last year; in February 2008, just 48 percent had a favorable impression of Mrs. Clinton, versus 49 percent who had an unfavorable impression.

TheDailyBeast picks up an overseas piece of hackery:

In a speech to members of the Northern Ireland Assembly on Monday, Clinton talked about her first visit to Belfast, which she made with her husband in November 1995. “We stayed at the Europa Hotel, as I have again this time, even though then there were sections boarded up because of damage from bombs,” she said….P.J. Crowley, a State Department spokesman, insisted that there was nothing inaccurate in Clinton’s statement this week. “There was a renovation in progress that stemmed from the bombing and a change in ownership of the hotel. The secretary of State was not suggesting she was dodging bombs when she arrived at the hotel,” he said, recalling the May 1993 bombing. “We’ve talked to two people who were with the Clintons in 1995, and they say they were shown an area that was still restricted, where the bombing had been.”…

She talked about the hotel being boarded up in sections and that is something to do a hit piece about? Are you frakking kidding me? Keep trying you toolz of TOTUS near and far. Don’t like Hillary making peace in No Ireland eh? Too damn bad. She gave an excellent 20 minute speech sans teleprompter something TOTUS is apparently incapable of.

Did any of these people cover the VERY REAL ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT on Hillary a few months ago? No not a word. TOTUS must be pixxed that Hill is more popular you know how malignant narcissists get about their popularity. BWAAAAHAAAAAA! And good work Hill! But MiM still wants you to step down if TOTUS shorts the Afghan troop surge…and PS islamic Militants have now tried to kill Hillary she has no need to lie or exaggerate now, move on MSMs move on…

The Australian News:

RADICAL Islamist al-Shabaab militants linked to al-Qa’ida and based in Somalia plotted to kill US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during her trip to Africa last month, it was disclosed yesterday.

A planned series of bomb attacks set to take place in Nairobi, the capital of neighbouring Kenya, while Mrs Clinton was there – one in the hotel where she was staying – was foiled at the last minute, media reports, citing senior security officials, said.

“Al-Qa’ida wanted to strike at the heart of Nairobi (while Mrs Clinton was here),” the senior security official was quoted as saying, adding that Kenyan authorities intercepted communications between the plotters in war-ravaged Somalia and their operatives in Nairobi, which has a large emigre Somali population.

Five suspected al-Shabaab terrorists were arrested, including a man believed to be a Somali carrying a Danish passport. The four other suspects seized, including a woman, had what appeared to be false Kenyan identity documents, according to the reports.

Sounds like a close call:

…There were to be major bomb blasts in the hotel where Mrs Clinton and her entourage were staying, as well as at another major hotel and a transport hub.The reports said that so seriously was the view taken by authorities of the al-Shabaab threat that elements from Kenya’s elite presidential guard were deployed as part of Mrs Clinton’s entourage. Yesterday’s reports said there were concerns al-Shabaab militants living in Nairobi might be acquiring Kenyan identification documents, including passports.

Let Hillary do her job, She is a work horse and she is doing the best she can with a Foreign Policy a la TOTUS...imagine having Joe Biden questioning your every move..
