I heard a bunch of talking heads saying that [she tried it* and it didn’t work, so her people won’t let her do it again]. But, apparently her speech in Selma wasn’t the first time she tried to cloak her inner Yankee…

Calculating, cold-hearted, robotic, bi…
Murray Rothbard also picked up on the inner Yankee theme back in the day.
While every one of the Yankee Protestant denominations was infected and dominated by left millennialism, this heresy prevailed almost totally in the Methodist Church … it is Hillary, not Slick Willie, who is the hard-core ideologue in the White House … Hillary’s theological agenda was perceptively unveiled recently … In a lengthy exclusive interview with Hillary, Woodward reports that our Lady Macbeth simply considers herself “an old-fashioned Methodist.” … Mix into “old-fashioned Methodism” liberal doses of Marxism, the New Left, the pagan pantheist New Age, and the multicultural and sexual revolutions, stir briskly, and you get the current ruling horror that we all face … We face, in short, regardless of what hairdo or persona she affects next week, the evil Witch in the White House.
Unfortunately the Bushes are also from good old Yankee stock.

Be warned, it’s painful.
Michelle Malkin has fun with Mrs. Bill Clinton’s southern speech

Ah guess its ‘cuz jawwin’ on the stump Beeyall’s participles wuz danglin’ every which a way.
The only reason Bill agreed to accompany Hillary on the trip to Selma, is he thought he was going to see Salma Hayek.
Joan, no the only reason SHE (Hillary) went to Selma is to possibly see Salma. Box lunch anyone?
She was just having a bit of fun, she knew it was bad, and wasn’t trying to fool anybody. She may not be as smart as Bill, but she isn’t that dumb.
Maybe not as dumb as you, Cletis.
I agree completely that you can’t be what you are not. However, (shades of Preston Manning here) if people would actually listen to WHAT was said as opposed to HOW it sounded, those in the US and those of us here in Canada might get an election result that reflects the public’s fondness for the platform.
And no, I don’t like Hillary…
Well, at least she didn’t go down to Selma and try to sound black, or like Bubba try to imply that she was just a little bit black, at least in spirit, herself. If you want to see a couple of examples of just how crass ethnic pandering can be, go to C-Span and click on this week’s Road to the White House: they have video files of the Selma speeches, complete with all the moralizing and fake outrage tailored to suit an audience you can stand. Keep a bucket handy, though.
Oop… my God, she really was trying to go black. The only way she could have been worse is if she showed up chewing watermelon. Holy crap. It might not be too soon to forecast a McCain-like nosedive in HRC’s presidential onslaught, which isn’t the good news it sounds like, because HRC is basically as beatable as John Kerry and for many of the same reasons.
I wept, I thought,I puku d.
Such is life.

Unless she promises to paint the Whitehouse BLACK we know she is just pandering for votes!
I Like the clip of Hitlary’s “screech speech” that Rush keeps on a loop and plays as a “sound effect” every time he gets a female liberal crank call…On it, Hitlery was screeching like the harpies of mythology…it was an awful, blood curdling sound…one that would make a red blooded male’s genitalial seek refuge in a safer port. 😉
Brian – as a keen Reform supporter and a big Manning fan, I fee comfortable saying that I much preferred his speeches in print rather than radio or tv.
At the risk of being forever banned, let me first say this: I don’t want to see Hillary anywhere near the White House (again) in my lifetime.
That being said, I’m apparently one of those people that can pick up a language (or an accent) with ease, and in short time.
I lived in Louisiana in my teens, and after a year, few (other than maybe LA natives, and not all of them) could tell I was Canadian born & raised.
Fast-forward 8-10 years, I went back to LA with a friend for another friend’s wedding. My Canadian friend got a GREAT kick out of listening to me talk after we’d been there a few days – to her, I spoke “Canadian” but to all others I spoke “Southern.”
I had no clue, it was automatic. I adjusted to my audience.
Apparently (and I’ll agree), it was funniest in a 3-way conversation (me, my Cdn friend and any Southerner) as I’d hop from one accent to the other seamlessly, and I didn’t notice it.
This may be what happened to Hillary. Alternatively, she may be the fraud implied.
Just adding my 2 cents.
