Obama Staff Member Hacks It Up
By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, Barack, Hillary, Partisan HacksHillary is many things, but she’s not a monster…
In an unguarded moment during an interview with The Scotsman, Samantha Power, his key foreign policy aide, let slip the camp’s true feelings about the former First Lady….Ms Power told The Scotsman Mrs Clinton was stopping at nothing to try to seize the lead from Mr Obama.
“We f***** up in Ohio,” she admitted. “In Ohio, they are obsessed and Hillary is going to town on it, because she knows Ohio’s the only place they can win.
“She is a monster, too — that is off the record — she is stooping to anything,” Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark.
Ugh.

God dammit. Fire her now, and do as much damage control as possible. He may have just lost a huge chunk of the woman vote. Sorry for saying this, but he got really lucky that it was a woman who said it.

We all have our own definitions of monster, don’t we. She sure as hell fits mine. Win at all costs, the party and country be damned.

I’d have to say I agree with Samatha power. Hillary is indeed a monster and you only have to observe the next few months to come to the same conclusion.
She has endorsed the republican candidate and given them plenty of ammo. She doesn’t care if she destroys the party in her temper tantrum and madness for power.

I agree with Power, Clinton really will say anything, but you CAN’T insult your opponent like that when you’re that high up.

Yeah the Obama campaign should continue to take as high a road as possible, hit her on more issue based aspects, without stooping to name calling and such, Obama is liked because of his positive message, straying from that will only hurt him
Although I happen to agree with the assessment of HRC

Obama showed poor judgment hiring Samantha Power. If he doesn’t fire her, he will look really bad. How many amateurs does he have on his staff? If this is any indication of his judgment, America will be in trouble, if he is elected President. Hopefully, the Democratic base will rally around Hillary. She’s the most qualified person.

Obama is surrounding himself with elites who scorn the working class.
Samanatha Power is another Harvard elite who thinks Ohio’s men and women are ignorant. Clinton cares about union people and all working people so to Samantha Power she is a monster to the Obama campaign.

Hilary is a monster! Who does she think she is, a woman wanting to take a man’s job? She’s only where she is because she sucked Bill Clinton’s nob. She’s too weak to be president, look at how she got all emotional and crying in that one interview. She’s so cold, I don’t think she has any real feelings at all, she’s just a monster. Go Obama and his positive message for change!

Does ‘SEA HAG’ count as a monster? Because I see her as sort of a ‘SEA HAG’ but I really don’t put that into the ‘Monster’ category.
Hmmm… I could be wrong.

This could be a blessing in disguise for Obama. Power was always going to be a source of controversey, but this handily removes from the scene.

[...] I wrote about this yesterday and it looks like they asked her to leave. [...]

This clearly shows the kind of sexism that goes on in the background of the Obama campaign. That traitor deserves to be fired. And Obama has the nerve to call Ferraro a racist. He and his staff are both racist and sexist! Only Hillary has the experience to be or next President. Only she can be our Commander-in-Chief and lead our country to victory in Iraq. She was at Bill’s side each day in the Oval office and know how its done. That’s REAL experience even John McCain can’t claim!

There’s documented proof that she wasn’t always at Bill’s side each day in the oval office. Are you prepared for more scandal that distracts from the peoples business? Then by all means put the Clintons back in White House – personally I become a citizen of another country the day she’s sworn in………
