In case you missed it

About Vivian J. Paige

A former candidate, I've learned a lot about politics, both good and bad. I'd prefer more of the former and a lot less of the latter and I'm trying to do my part!

  1. “Honored”? I thought politicians were supposed to be “humbled.”

  2. She’s been humbled every Tuesday for a while now.

  3. No, “humiliated.”

  4. Her coach must be mad… she forgot to cry… again

  5. Obama could use a little coaching, too. Clinton’s message was nothing against him, or even anything he would disagree with. He should have been applauding right along with everyone else, instead of sitting there like a deer in the headlights.

  6. As for Clinton’s clap-trap about, “we’ll be alright,” when her husband makes more for a single speech than 99% of the citizens make in a year, yeah, they’ll be alright.

  7. It’s like the Special Olympics All-Star Tag Team, here.

    You are ALL winners!

  8. I’ve worked with the Special Olympics. Those kids are the most loving and selfless people you will ever meet. One of the kids on my children’s neighborhood swim team works his ass off at every practice — but he is dead last in every race. And every race he is cheered on wildly by both teams just hoping he can get a personal best. He became a S.O. state champion last year. He’s more of a winner than you can ever be or even conceive.

    Lay off.

  9. Oh My God, a former president making piles of money. What a scandal.

    One judges former presidents not by the money they make in book deals and speeches (Clinton left the White House deeply in debt), but by the body of their work.

    Carter and Clinton have shown what amazing good can be accomplished after they leave the elective stage. God bless them both for it. If you compare the lack of anything substantively accomplished to improve people’s lives by Ford, Reagan and Bush, it is just one more reason I am proud in being a Democrat.

    What a snooty and stupid comment, the real clap trap.

  10. I thought making money was the American thing to do?

  11. It’s not the making money I have a problem with, it’s the “don’t worry about little ol’ me, we’ll be alright” BS.
