This guy was so instrumental to Team Hillary in 2008 that he is supposedly a top name for Hillary's Campaign Manager in charge of it all for 2016 - and he talks like this to his Democrat buddies?!?!?!

At least he has energy if not a lot of dignity...

If anyone thought that Hillary would run a clean campaign I have a bridge to sell you.

IMHO Hillary's time has come and gone. Her health is against her and so will her age, especially if she picks a Dem version of Palin as her VP.

1. I can't believe anyone would be naive enough to actually think their Republican counterparts don't talk the same way.

2. After the GOP spent most of the 90s trying to personally destroy Hillary and Bill Clinton, to express mock outrage at the language used by some Democratic operatives is quite frankly rather rich and undoubtedly the height of hypocrisy. You've been waging war against Hillary Clinton and her family for more than 20 years now (three quick examples from dozens and dozens: 1. Rush Limbaugh TV Show: "Do you know the White House has a dog?"--shows picture of Chelsea Clinton--keep it classy right wingers--; 2. accusing her of murder (seriously); 3. making fun of the way she looks--again, keep it classy--that's just the tip of the iceberg). We can keep going on this. We can use up an entire thread on how GOP operatives paid off Arkansas state troopers to lie about Bill and Hillary Clinton (remember 'Troopergate?' remember how when it came out that the troopers couldn't have possibly been where they said they were it quietly disappeared?).

3. While we're expressing our outrage over how political operatives talk among themselves, let's make sure not to forget the robocalls from the Bush camp aimed at torpedoing McCain in South Carolina in 2000 accusing him of fathering a biracial child (I'm not sure what's worse, the lie or the blatant appeal to base GOP voter racism). And perhaps the claim by Dick Cheney just weeks before the 2004 election that if John Kerry was elected, there'd be another terrorist attack on the United States (a base appeal to fear of getting murdered might actually be worse than a base appeal to racism, perhaps it's a toss-up).

Where is my outrage? I am merely pointing out that the guy lacks class and is considered to be possibly the top dog to run Hillary's campaign...seems a bit unprofessional for an executive to be speaking of punishing voters and running a mafia.

So what?

Using strong language or lacking "class" might literally be the least offensive thing a politician or political operative (on either side) is ever guilty of.

The Machiavellian antics of Hillary and her political allies are well known. At least Bill Clinton is likeable even if you oppose his politics. Hillary is like a viper.

I know the likelyhood of what I'm aboiut to ask is nill but....... what if Hillary decides not to run?

I mean think about it..... The Dems have pretty much built their game plan on the fact the Hillary is going to run, and that she'll more than likely be a shoe-in for election.

If she'd decide to surprise everyone and say...."meh, no thanks"..... where's that going to leave the Democrat party? I think they'd be running around like chickens with their head cut off, not knowing exactly what to do. It probably won't happen, but if it does, hilarity will surely ensue.
