I am definitely not a fan of the Clintons, but I don't think that this picture is a big deal. One, I am sure that a President and his wife will take thousands of pictures with people that they my know well or not well. A picture with someone doesn't mean that they had a strong relationship with that person. So I think this is being blown out of proportion like everything else.
That picture doesn't tell us anything. Ever been to a political fundraiser? The candidate/officeholders take pictures with folks whose names they never know, people they've never seen, just people who write a check to get in the door.
Ha. I loved the way her lips tightened up and her smile went south after they cut back to her from the picture. Hey, it's just politics, right, Hill?
did obama's campaign leak this? I guess I am surpriswed Machine Clintondidn't get in front of this It seems like a simple silly pic like millions of them on all sides BUT it did score points against her. not many but some
I have a picture with Hillary. I'd bet anything that if she saw me she again she would have no idea who I am or any recollection of ever seeing me before. As compelling as that evidence may seem on the surface, it doesn't mean anything.
She can spin out of it quite easily - Rezko didn't give me money and didn't help me by my house. He was a hanger-oner and didn't find a receptive audience with Bill or me. Obama wasn't as experienced to recognize why he shouldn't associate himself with Rezko. Experience does matter. Of course, she has her own fund raiser problem. If you go to a fund raiser, you can get your picture taken with President/candidate/candidate's wife.
I don't think naij is saying the pic itself means anything. I think naj is commenting on media putting it out there Not trying to speak for Naj, I am just interested that media would make a deal of it I thought they were pushing Hill
Doesn't change the fact that it was a spur of the moment cheapshot. I am glad it will now come back to bite her in the *** just a little bit. I have respect for Bill but he is losing it day by day with the Clinton's "win at all costs" attitude.
What Horn6721 said about what I think. But thanks for the various posts on how the picture might have come about.
this will have as much traction as the media wants it to have. But we must be careful of Bill's " International Brand"
The Democrats have managed to make the Republican primary look normal, peaceful, and well-organized. At this stage, I would go so far as to say that the Republicans have a clearer picture than the Democrats, since Romney is the only person with both money and support. The Democrats have a clear winner in Obama, and I find it silly that they are so wary of him.
I'm no fan of HRC, but I don't think it's that big of a deal. If you will recall, there's a photo of Roslyn Carter with serial killer John Wayne Gacy, taken at a fund raiser in the '70's. I doubt they were pals.
