Have just seen Meet the Press panel discussion on Hillary Clinton. It seems from over the water here in the UK that the Main Stream Media; MSM; thinks this 1992 and Hillary Clinton is Bill Clinton. The Junior Senator is not the former President. VIEWS has been critical of Bill Clinton in the past but he is a natural political King. Hillary Clinton has many excellent qualities but natural warmth is not one of them, the panel seem to think this was 1992. Hillary Clinton's magic has worked in New York but New York is a Liberal State. VIEWS has great doubts that Hillary Clinton can peel off any Republican states she might even lose a few Democratic states to Giuliani or Fred Thompson. It can be argued that the road is long to the election, well about seven months, can you change the perceptions of a country of a woman they have known since 1992. Politics is about selling a candidate well at least compared to other products, but where from over the water the MSM and the Clinton campaign is going wrong is thinking you can change the wheel, they should play up to the Senator's qualities, clever more so than Bill, her Methodist background, her loyalty to a errant husband, not quite a feminist model. Humour should be left to Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton could come back from the scandal of early 1992, Hillary Clinton if she makes a major political mistake wont be able to do that, people knew Bill had his faults but cared about people and their problems. Simple lesson folks as Lincoln said, you cant fool the people all the time in this 24/7 news day. He would have said that if they had TV then, so the lesson for today, if your Liberal tell the Clinton Campaign don't try to change perceptions, is taken a long time to develop them, play to the + make your - an asset, hence not warm but competent, strong but willing to learn. VIEWS is a Neo Con but cant stand bad politics, if from left or right.

Nothing would excite the GOP base like Evita Clinton. No one would generate turn out for us like Hillary either.
She doesn't seem warm because she isn't warm. She's the real Maoist, not Bill.
