Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton on Tuesday described past Republican political malfeasance in New Hampshire as evidence of a "vast, right-wing conspiracy."
Clinton's barbed comments revived a term she coined for the partisan plotting during her husband's presidential tenure and echoed remarks she made last weekend in New Hampshire, which holds the nation's first primary.
She was made to look like a FOOL the LAST TIME she said this - WHY would she keep that phrase alive when it takes us all back to Bill's adultery? I don't understand her reasoning.

I find it amazing that not a single person has mentioned the things that the Democrats did in Chicago in 2004 when they flattened the tires on cars that were being used to transport people to the polls and sabotaged phone lines at Republican Election HQ. These things were well documented, along with the way the Clinton staff sabotaged the West Wing on the way out in 2000. Want to see what the left wing does? Look below:
Whitehouse trashed, legal probe considered
WHITE HOUSE OFFICES LEFT 'TRASHED': PORN BOMBS, LEWD MESSAGES; LEGAL PROBE CONSIDERED
**Exclusive Details**
The Bush Administration has quietly launched an investigation into apparent acts of vandalism and destruction of federal property -- after incoming Bush staffers discover widespread sabotage of White House office equipment and lewd messages left behind by previous tenants!
Harriet Miers, 55, Assistant to President Bush and staff secretary will be investigating possible legal ramifications of the White House trashing and possible theft, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
"Miers is just beginning her investigation," a well-place source said late Wednesday from Washington. "The level of the trashing is very troubling, this is not just 'W' keys missing from keyboards."
The damage left by departing Clintonites goes "way beyond pranks, to vandalism", said a close Bush adviser.
White House employees aren't waiting to be interviewed by Miers. They are providing names of the worst malefactors, previous occupants of specific offices.
Photographic and audio evidence is being collected -- as the full scope of the damage becomes clear.
Bush's staff has been cautioned not to go public with the extent of the damage and the worst is being closely held among very top staffers for fear of leaks. But, according to sources, so far Bush officials have found:
*Phone lines were cut, rendering them inoperable.
*Voice mail messages were changed to obscene, scatological greetings. One Bush staffer had his grandmother call from the Midwest. She was horrified by what she heard on the other end of the line.
*Many phone lines misdirected to other government offices.
*Desks found turned completely upside down and trash deliberately left everywhere.
*Computer printers that were filled with blank paper but interspersed with pornographic pictures and obscene slogans that would be revealed only as items were run off the computer.
*'W' keys weren't just pried off more than 40 keyboards, some were glued on with Superglue; some were turned upside down and glued on.
*Filing cabinets glued shut.
*VP Office space in the Old Executive Office Building found in complete shambles. Mrs. Gore had to phone Mrs. Cheney to apologize, first reported by Rich Galen's Mullings.
*Lewd MagicMarker graffiti found on one office hallway.

Carimba! If a rhetorical remark like VRWC can make someone foolish then half of Yahoo! Answers, the radio shock jocks and the EIB would all be going out of business.
You guys will be pulling Kenneth Starr out of his coffin next.
Now THAT was one inept investigator. "Go investigate a real estate deal" he was told and he comes back with some story about a cigar and an intern.
Actually, I like it. Vast Right Wing Conspiracy almost sounds poetic- has a nice cadence to it - real rabble rousing phrase. Think I'll work it into my next Toastmasters speech and thump the table in the rythm. 4 beats, extra emphasis on the final sylable, raised fist at the end then break into a smile, walk off the stage. Yeeeah :-)

The term actually started as "vast left-wing conspiracy" and Hillary stole it. I have seen a lot of the fallout from the phone-jamming fiasco. It was not as "vast" as she makes it out to be (Bush lost NH anyway), but it was illegal, and some high ranking Republican politicos have paid the price.
Each side "conspires" to undermine the other. It is the nature of politics. some just lack the morality to do it legally. As for Hillary - If she can't stand the heat, well...
That said, I doubt NH falls for Clintons conspiracy theories. We are smart people who can usually see through the BS (pats self on back).

The only people who thought she was a fool for saying it last time were the Republicans she was talking about. By the way - it wasn't said about Bill's infidelities, it was meant to describe the Republican's witchhunters objective to remove Bill from office no matter what. Why do you people always find the need to rewrite history when it comes to the Clintons?
If ever she was right, it's now. The Republicans are desperate. They have garbage candidates that don't have a prayer of beating any Democratic candidate for '08. The party is in trouble and is divided. The only thing they can seem to do these days is invent slander and refer back to the old, unproven of course, accusations they tried against the Clintons last time. The Libby trial was a real eye opener to their lack of morals when it comes to telling the truth. And they continue to call anyone who doesn't agree with them liberals and terrorist loving troop hating unpatriotic traitors. When a party is so desperate it can do nothing but flame and name call it's in big trouble. There's a conspiracy all right. It's one that hopes to gather American citizens back under its wing with b.s. Sorry, most of us are onto to it by now. Not in the mood to buy anymore rhetoric from the spin masters. This country is in enough trouble from buying it the first time around.

Sorry, I haven't had the time to investigate this latest "big news item."
As far as I'm concerned, the field is still wide open concerning presidential candidates, and there's plenty of room and time for everyone to either confirm their integrity or their stupidity.
Get back to me in a few months and we'll talk about who's said the stupidest things to the camera.
"Bring 'em on" still rings in my ears....
PS - Elways' postings have more integrity than yours, and it's NOT just because she and I might be closer in political philosophy. It goes much deeper than that, dearie. Elway has that certain je ne sais quois. Some have it, and some don't. I've always been able to trust my intuition.

It was a conspiracy to keep people from the polls by blocking telephone lines! A high right winger is currently in jail for that!
I think the right wing will do anything, legal or not legal, to interfere with the voting process! That isn't anything new!
Funny, Newt Gingrich, the Republican Leader of the House who was trying to get Clinton impeached, was committing adultery at the time!

I think she's right on the money. It's a fact that there have been MANY instances of Republicans trying to prevent Democrats from voting, intimidating them etc. I think it's awesome that she's not afraid to come out and say it.

You are right on and very perceptive. She knows nothing else. Ya da ya da, her husbands adultry, her change of position on vital matters, her see/sawing, anything negative about her is all 'right wing conspiracy'. This is her patent answer for the zillion negatives against her. It's old, I thought she was more intelligent than to run this tact into the ground.

There is such a thing as the vast Relilgious Right. So I suppose they could be looked at as conspiring to get their way no matter what. As long as they got God's ok of course.

I actually want to see how far she goes. Hillary is dropping in the polls and Obama is rising. I wonder what she will pull to try and win. I imagine she'd do anything.
