To those of you e-mail us and post comments wondering why we are constantly, choose you verb here (bashing, hating on, picking on, slamming, etc.) Hillary Clinton; has it ever crossed your minds that we have been right all along? No? Never? Not even once? Well, maybe yo need to get out more. This little piece comes from The Hufington Post of all places.
In the past six weeks, I’ve shaken the hands of thousands of New Yorkers… It became quite clear that many supporters of Hillary Clinton have no idea what she actually believes in or what she has actually done. Her support is the prime political example of celebrity culture in America: we know nothing about what someone believes or who they really are; the media helps spin an image, carefully managed and orchestrated by our celebrity’s handlers; and, then, we are shocked, shocked when we find that JenLo or Brittany or Hillary aren’t what we expected. I suppose we can have a bit of tolerance for fiction when it comes to actors and athletes. But, when we are talking about war and peace, our economic future and basic principles like the First Amendment, the celebrity charade must be challenged.

Now, granted, Tasini is running against Hillary for New York Senate, but take a gander at some of the comments from the Left:
It was amusing — or I should say it would have been amusing if it weren’t so infuriating — to read in this morning’s NY Times that candidate Clinton is receiving thousands of dollars from the health care industry. Who HASN’T she sold out to?
I can only hope that primary challenges become more common against incumbents in both parties. An honest debate on the issues and a defense of one’s record in Congress is important to keep politicians connected to the voters, instead of the donors.
Incumbents are winning over 95% of the time. I wish it were not so, because lots of people think Hillary deserves to lose. With a solid candidate running against her, her arguement will be: Down the road I can beat any Republican presidential nominee (aside: I am a Trojan Horse. Trust me! When I get in you’ll see the real me).
For my money this is the real Hillary. And I don’t think she can beat anybody for president in ‘08. Let’s get rid of her now.
This is but a small sample. And these people aren’t even in the VRWC
