Hillary praises Ron Paul and his Amazing enthusiastic grassroot supporters - Video

She didn't want a follow up question. She didn't want to get RWND!

She's smart, she's evil, she is scum.

Fuck you Hillary, how was the meeting with Obama at Bilderberg? :rolleyes:
 
I can't believe that you guys missed what just happened....!!!!!! Man she is good!!!

I totally despise this lady with a passion, she was using flattery to soften him up and take up his time so he could not respond to the comment about "a definite time table for the end of the Iraq war..."

It is the oldest trick in the book, if she were combative he would not have let down his guard and let her take up all of the time....!:rolleyes:

Man, I have to watch you kids 24 hours a day....! ;)

Except Conza...!

IMO, the Dems have a deliberate new strategy now of trying to pump this "schism" between Ron Paul (libertarian) Republicans and Neocons. It's a winning strategy if your goal is to break up and disable the GOP. In the long run, though, it could have very serious blowback. This could literally cause the breakup of the GOP into two schools - fiscal conservative libertarians and religious warmonger neocons. the former could draw huge, huge numbers of democrats, especially if the economy and taxes get worse. Dems should be careful what they wish for. A highly religious, warmongering GOP is easy to beat.

^This^

More importantly Clinton knows that Afghanistan might blow up like Vietnam and @5:02 asks us to "help". Thus associating us with Obama and leaving the real antiwar flank compromised and not in the Republican opposition when 2012 comes around.

Remember LBJ was a liberal Democrat that proclaimed "We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves." And then escalated and made it "his war"

Who came to replace him? Republican Richard Nixon who promised to end that disastrous war.

I think Clinton's praise is probably genuine but I certainly don't think the timing is.

She didn't run up the time, Paul had 5 minutes, he couldn't have made another question.
 
The flattery trick to distract from the meaningless answer.
Granted, this can be used for good, she did a political side step to avoid having to provide any substantial answers.
Sneaky Bitch is up to something...

She is Machievelian.
 
While there are some argument that this could have been a delay tactic of sorts, it certainly had a cost of giving us some great material. :) I see this clip of Hiliary saying "Your message obviously resonated with a lot of people" etc, making it in many YouTube videos to come... :)

That was nice of Madam Clinton to say that, I thought the guy at the end said your going to encourage HIM, as in encourage him to run again. Lol.

I listened to this 5 times, I guess he did say HIM.

BTW- you can see Dr. Paul laughing at the end. No harm, no foul that I see.

I wish RP would have taken her to school while the spotlight was on. He should have got serious and said "Mrs. Clinton, do you understand what my supporters are enthusiastic about?" Well, let me sum it up for you..." Instead he looked kind of like a giddy school boy being praised by the teacher for winning the spelling bee. And then that jerkoff saying "you're gonna encourage him..." RP might have added something like "The only encouragement I need is from the millions who voted for our platform and the thousands that discover and join us daily. God willing, we will have enough patriots to set this mess right."

Good points.

Don't forget, EVERYTHING Hillary says is calculated. That wasn't just an off-the-cuff praise of RP. If she really wanted to praise his supporters she could have done so many times earlier.

On the same token, the R's and D's are all the same now so what does it really matter in terms of our gov't. I believe it's just Hillary trying to gain as much power for herself as possible, so 2012 is all hers.

Wasn't it Ms. Clinton that coined the term "vast right-wing conspiracy"?
 
I think it was both politically calculated to stall out any further questions as well as being genuine praise of RP's campaign. She's not making it up about us being the strongest grassroots campaign so there's certainly truth to her statement. I thought it was a kinda nice moment. Even Hillary recognizes that we kick ass :)

I don't think there was any elaborate scheme here. I'm sure Clinton knows that Paul is one to ask the tough questions that no one else will and figures that by greasing him up a bit can make him think twice about asking the super tough questions. Of course, that won't work, but I can see that being her thought process.

I don't think we should be looking too hard for ulterior motives here. Paul's question was honest and tough, but not at all mean-spirited. He actually crossed the aisle and praised the Obama approach (at least his words) of being open to talking to our enemies. That's a huge compliment, coming from a Republican. And, let's face it--I'm sure she did notice our enthusiasm on the campaign trail. So, I think it was actually an honest compliment from Hillary. :eek: She appreciated his support of the Obama/Democrat approach to foreign policy (at least their stated approach). He says something nice, she returns the favor. It really was a warm fuzzy moment in Washington, those are rare.
