Leading Clinton Supporter Endorses McCain

Newsweek:

John Coale, a prominent Washington lawyer, husband of Fox TV host Greta Van Susteren and a supporter of Sen. Hillary Clinton, announced today that he was supporting John McCain for president. Coale, who traveled with Sen. Clinton, President Clinton and her family through out the primary season, complained of sexism, and said the Democratic Party is "being taken over by the moveon.org types" in an exclusive interview with Newsweek.com's Tammy Haddad. He said he tried to prevent Clinton's brother, Tony Rodham, from attending an August 18th meeting in Scranton, Pa. with McCain campaign surrogate Carly Fiorina. "I urged him not to go and told him it would embarrass his sister, but he has a mind of his own." Coale says Mr. Rodham asked Ms. Fiorina "about McCain's Supreme Court picks."

I'm telling you HIlary was their person for a reason they are not getting their ability to control from Obama but they are getting it from John McCain. Makes perfect sense to me. Just folks who wanted to determine what their government do and saw that Opportunity with HIlary and now with John but Not so much with Barack and Biden.

NOBODY can control Obama ... And that, my friends, IS a VERY GOOD thing ...

Nobody wants a puppet for a President after having the monkey in office ...

Amazing, a human with the brain of a pea. Is this guy a human-dinosaur hybrid? Seriously, though...w­hat exactly is a "moveon type"? Most of the people who worked on Hillary Clinton's campaign were members of Moveon. Moveon formed during the silly scandals with Hillary's husband back in the 90's to help the country "Move On" and get Democrats elected. They hold bake sales and send fundraising emails, sometimes they do competitions with the members to see who can make the best video spot. Most of the members don't do anything besides get mails every day.

To say that Obama is somehow sexist is laughable. Does Coale actually think McCain would have treated her with absolute respect? Look at McCain's running mate! He could have had Kay Hutchinson, Olympia Snowe...RE­AL bonafide VP candidates (who should have run for the top office), if he wanted to pick a Republican woman...bu­t he took a complete half-wit that he could push around. That speaks volumes to me about McCain's views on feminism..­.and you can bet that McCain, if he were running against Clinton, would have his surrogates going as sexist as they could get.

No longer able to secure a political appointment from HRC, and unlikely to ever get one from Senator O, Coale looks for opportunities where ever they may be.

All the GOPers who infiltrated her campaign are heading home now ... patting themselves on the back for a job well done. And this guy is married into Fox news? Shocking - just shocking I tell ya.

Hillary paid a great price when she exchanged her soul for positive coverage within the great smear machine. I am glad that she's come back to the party - screw FOX and anyone who associates with Murdoch and his ilk!

Take a hint people!!!! Anyone who let's Carville inside the DNC or any campaigns is a FOOL; from his mouth, to his wife's, to Karl Rove's ears.

[HadEnoughCrap]

Come on...the real news here is that Greta Van Susteren is straight. ;)

[ScandalousCandice]

LOL!!!

[ricitizen]

ROFLMO!

[ccmd]

Bye. Bye.

[castlerider]

Like this goofball is actually going to be relevant 3 months from now, after the GOP gets Trounced in this election.

Forget him. He looks about as stupid as he is ugly anyway.
