    If she takes on the banksters and WINS, nobody is going to be worried about Prime Time.

    You ask a real interesting question, will white men support HRC? Can HRC carry the Democrat flag into that territory? I f you ask me, this is the real question for the General Election. Of course, HRC will seek to turn out her "1s and 2s", women and minorities, but what about the "3s and 4s", white men of working age and senior voters? Can she make in roads there or will she lose ground??? That will decide it all, in my opinion.

    Also, don't underestimate the power of social media. This is where election and campaigning is going.

    Two other issues. First, the college vote will not be going to Hillary because she looks old and youth is not called callow for nothing. Second, Blacks will not risk getting Hillary elected and then seeing her possibly become a good and a competent president, making them in turn look like idiots for having bypassed her in the first place back in 2008.

    You mean those same "youth voters" who went out and voted for the 61 year old John Kerry over the younger 58 year old W Bush back in 2004? Those same "youth voters" who voted for the slightly older guy? Your "predictions" may be a little bit off there champ.

    Now, now; although many people called John Kerry an old WOMAN even shallow and callow college youths were capable of setting aside the bong long enough to realize that he was instead just an old man. Ah but Hillary, despite her five o'clock shadow problem is indeed what they would classify as an old woman; and curiously enough they are more likely to ding a woman for being old than a man -- youth being notoriously callow and all that.

    It's going to be amusing when your "predictions' fall flat on their faces, eh?

    I'm not so sure. He lost to a guy generally regarded as one of the worst presidents ever, so I'm not so sure.

    Can't say I was ever much of a fan of the guy though.

    - - - Updated - - -

    You mean the midterms where the establishment GOP leaders such as McConnell said they would crush the Tea Party, and that's exactly what happened?

    Seems to me the Tea Party got crapped on by their own party. Amusing, isn't it?

    Lost insult there. I don't subscribe to the Tea Party , nor am I a member.
    My concern was the eminent destruction of the Democrat control, which I enjoyed immensely

    Well, that's good. Most conservatives/libertarians/Tea Party members are all loyal Republicans any way, so it's refreshing to get someone admit to that for a change.

    I know you aren't a Democrat. You are a conservative Republican. I know that's very embarrassing to admit, but you are what you are. Most conservatives are embarrassed to admit it, which is why many of them masquerade as "free thinking independents" and "libertarians", all while posting like blatant far right wing conservatives, and voting straight ticket Republican in every election cycle.

    is it just me or does Politico have it out for Hillary lately? Three months ago every day brought us another Unicorns Love Hillary story at the top of the Politico. Now they are rougher on her than Drudge report and the very unflattering pics they are running make her look like she is running late on her Botox injections. As little as 3 months ago they were using 8 and 10 year old pics that made her look good. An example of the current headlines and pics



    Hillary’s emails: Deleted but not gone
    The emails Clinton says she deleted from her personal server may still be recoverable.

    keep trolling.
    I am a moderate with center leanings. If you have a problem with THAT truth, go cry to the mods about it. I take the extreme because the Progressive Liberals with communistic leanings take it serious, by mis-labeling other members.
    oopsy,looks like you mis-labeled me...........

    No by any accomplishments of her own nor can you cite any accomplishments once she was awarded those positions for standing by her man even though he routinely made her a public fool.

    Breezing through this thread just reminds me why Republicans are going to loose to Hillary, they are still completely tone deaf to women's issues. Republicans playing to their religious base, push policies and make assumptions that are at least 50 years out of date with modern women concerns. Fight against abortion, against equal pay, demand demeaning body probes to receive abortion services, treat them like they should be barefoot and pregnant at home, and you will drive them to any alternative that treats them like an adult. All Hillary has to do is stand up and say, "I Understand", and they will flock to her in droves.

    It's not because she is a woman, that just adds to the credibility. Women are just the next group to be summarily pushed out of the GOP so Conservatives can achieve their ideological purity. But on the up side I'm sure the Mormon woman's vote is safely in GOP hands.

    It's amusing how you complained about me mislabeling you, only to then mislabel me.

    that was not prefaced with a "you."
    I was speaking in general, but you spoke specifically. Therefore,if the shoe fits, however, to be fair, you started this crap by assaulting me.
    yep, you started with direct name calling, then chased it with an insult.....how nice to know I was right.

    Angry White Guys seem to spend an inordinate amount of time haranguing women, Blacks, Hispanics, younger Americans, and those ubiquitous "Liberals!" in their noggins why they should march in lock step behind them.

    It simply does not present an attractive paradigm that anyone would want to emulate.

    Lately, they've been trying to alienate the pro-business denizens of the GOP with their daft evangetollah agenda, and their anti-equal treatment jihad now has all their presidential wishfuls trying desperately to scrape it off their right wingtips.

    With the GOP's top pols currently basking in a 24% approval/68% disapproval level with the American people, they may want to consider attempting to appear smart and/or reasonable.



    GOP Senator Graham has stated the existential reality, but their predilection for mass seppuku only hastens the inevitable:

    Welllllllll . . . let's examine leftwing doublestandards shall we? Enraged White male liberals heaped so much misogynistic generated hatred against both Barbara Bachman and Sarah Palin that what few fair minded feminists actually exist on the left, puked. Angry White male liberals heaped so much racist-based hatred against Herman Cain that it sent the founders of the NAACP spinning in their graves. Angry White liberal males heaped positively loads of hatred on the head of Brown Hispanic George Zimmerman and are currently doing the same with Hispanic-Americans Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio.

    So altogether now . . . "It's NEVER wrong when so very, VERY many hate-filled leftwingers do it!"

    That says it all really.

    Whoever you're upset about - and I have no idea who Barbara Bachman is - they bad! Your vast and nebulous "Left! are dastardly imps!

    But your Oh, yeah! what about... Point finger everywhere else rant does nothing to win friends and influence people.



    Take Senator Graham's apocalyptic warning to heart. Demonizing and mewling about everyone else is no way to be taken seriously or win respect.

    Scorn and hatred heaped on the other party members is the norm in today's political atmosphere.

    Pssssst . . . in the future, when pointing the smelly finger of blame rightward for ideologically based political reasons first be certain that as the pot calling the kettle sooty your outside is not itself, dirty as hell.
