Governor Paterson To Hillary Clinton: Quit!

New York Governor Tells Hillary Clinton To Honor Her Word

New York governor David Paterson has asked Hillary Clinton to do the honorable thing and adhere to the terms she previously agreed to, along with the other candidates, in not counting the Florida and Michigan primaries, that were held early and in violation of DNC rules.

Hillary, believing she had the race in the bag, agreed that Florida and Michigan would not be counted for the above-mentioned reasons, but then as the race slipped away, got desperate and changed her mind. Not an admirable trait in a so-called leader. She flip flops too much and agrees with whatever is popular.

Hillary Clinton

While I am a woman, that doesn’t mean you automatically get my vote (Hillary surely doesn't). Don’t even pull the race card either, as I wouldn’t vote for Condoleezza Rice either and she is an intelligent black woman, but one that continues to push Bush’s harmful, questionable policies that have devastated many in the world. I would, however, vote for a suitable, capable woman of integrity.

Hillary’s word means nothing. She also can’t think for herself. Throughout the campaign, she has aped other candidates' ideas and platforms. She's also been known to pass off other people’s ideas as her own.

Previously, in the book Her Way, she was formally accused of unlawfully being privy to others' illegally recorded conversations that she mined for political gain. Others have made the same accusation about her as well.

A member of her campaign also got into trouble for hacking into someone's email in a desperate bid to help Hillary. He later resigned due to the bad publicity.

All these incidents illustrate she is not an independent thinker. If you can’t think for yourself, how are you going to think for a nation in formulating strategies, solutions and plans to make a country better. If you can't think for yourself how are you going to respond to crisis. 

NY Gov: Clinton should stop Mich, Fla effort

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - New York Gov. David Paterson, a superdelegate who supports Hillary Rodham Clinton, said she's showing "a little desperation" and should give up her effort to count votes from renegade primaries in Michigan and Florida.

Paterson said Thursday that Clinton shouldn't derail the process by which the national Democratic Party stripped Michigan and Florida of their national convention delegates because they moved their primaries up to January in violation of party rules. The rules were agreed to by all the candidates, including Clinton, before she won the two January contests. Because of the violations, no candidates campaigned in either state and her rival Barack Obama took his name off Michigan's ballot.

"I would say at this point we're starting to see a little desperation on the part of a woman I still support and will support until she makes a different determination," Paterson told WAMC-FM radio. "Candidates have to be cautious in their zeal to win that they don't trample on the process." ...
