Clinton: Campaign Trail Is Tough
.c The Associated Press

By MARC HUMBERT

COXSACKIE, N.Y. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that life on the Senate campaign trail is harder than expected, especially for women.

``I'm almost embarrassed to think back - all the times that I would say to
my husband, `Well, you could have said this differently, or you could have
done that,''' the first lady told about 100 people at a community forum.

``Now, I would like to take all those words back because it's very tough for
both men and women,'' said Clinton, who is running against New York City
Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

But she added, ``there are extra burdens that women (candidates) face around
the country.''

``The best advice I've ever seen for women in politics came from one of my
favorite predecessors, Eleanor Roosevelt ... She said `You must grow skin as
tough as a rhinoceros.'

``So if you look carefully at my skin ...'' Clinton began before she was
drowned out by laughter.

Clinton also repeated her support for gun licensing, a position shared by
Giuliani.

Clinton attacked the National Rifle Association for being stuck on a ``theological view'' about gun control, but she also warned against ``people
on the other extreme who want to take everybody's guns away.''

``I've gone hunting,'' she said. ``I don't have anything against guns if
guns are used by responsible people.''

Typical politician.

She's dancing around an issue so as not to step on too many folks toes at once. We know where she's coming from.

She probably just read the ABC poll about guncontrol being 9th out of 15 "hot issues for Americans".
 
Unless the woman has a young child whom she must leave to go on the campaign route....how is it harder on women than it is on men? Seems like it is an equal PITA.

One more victim attempt to get the women's solidarity vote

Love all the comments, on a serious note, we seem to be hearing this more and more. Is it posable that the rise in NRA membership is scaring them? They are just trying to divide the hunters from the "evil" self defense proponents.

I think were gaining ground, we need to put more pressure on them and they will retreat for once insted of us!

On a side note and not to disparage anyone living there, but notice the name of the town that the clintons live in as noted in the AP post.

Remove the A and replace with a U.
Remove the I.
Place an R at the end.

If this is true, then there should be a record of her hunting license somewhere.

Hmmm... Will any of our news media "watchdogs" investigate this to see if she's lying? I'm not going to hold my breath. :rolleyes:
 
This woman has as much trouble telling the truth as her husband. "I've gone hunting", what a crock.

I remember back in 1993 or 1994 when she was on her hate the military rag and telling about how they were unfair to women. She told the story of how, after getting out of law school in 1973 or '74, she tried to join the Marines. She stated that they were rude to her and told her to get lost. I remember how desperate all branches of the service were for recruits back then, they would take just about any warm body. I was just out of high school then, and having a uni-sex first name, I was getting recruitment notices weekly stating how much they wanted women in the ranks. And they are going to turn down a Yale educated lawyer? I don't think so!

It just amazes me that some people believe every word these people say. You would think it was coming from the mouth of the Pope!
 
She is just trying to grab votes. I can't believe anything that comes out of her mouth. I saw an old of mine who is very pro active in the NRA and other organizations the other day and of course gun control came up. I couldn't believe my ears when he stated that he didn't care about the attack on the semi auto rifles as he didn't own any or have a use for them. He owns shutguns and pistols and is an active hunter. This comment by Hillary is thrown out just to drive a wedge and divide us from within. After this experience I know now that there are actually hunters out there that think they won't come for there duck guns. This is truely a sad day.
 
Hillary hunting? :rolleyes: Please! All she is doing is dancing around the truth. She is a total anti bitch! Her agenda is the same as Al Gore's. A vote for either one of these schmucks is a vote against the 2nd amendment! :mad:
