Op-Ed Hillary Clinton Is Running Again

[rareboy]

And of course...there are all the poor old brainless 'Chads' out there;;;

When Chad Watson, a claims adjuster for a risk management firm who lives near Indianapolis, tweeted his regret for voting for Mr. Trump on Feb. 8, he said a woman told him she’d never forgive him for his vote.

Mr. Watson, who is gay and sits on the board of an Indianapolis organization for gay rights, said he had voted for Democratic presidential candidates, including President Barack Obama, in the past. But, as he put it to one critic on Twitter, “I would rather have gouged my eyes out and only drank well vodka then to vote for Hillary Clinton.”

In an interview, Mr. Watson, 40, said he was never wild about Mr. Trump — “I really thought he was going to fizzle out and drop out” — and now regrets his decision to vote for him “as the lesser of two evils” after watching some of the decisions he’s made early in his presidency. Mr. Watson said he recently called the office of Senator Todd Young, Republican of Indiana, to urge him not to vote for Betsy DeVos, a wealthy Republican donor, to lead the Education Department.

Mr. Watson has not heard back yet. Ms. DeVos is now education secretary.

“It’s just a bunch of political stuff to get their friends into office,” Mr. Watson said of that appointment.

Here's a thought Chad.

You are getting exactly what you deserve. The rest of the world...not so much.

This is what I don't understand. If you want to hold Hillary and DNC accountable fine, but these same people are not actually talking about any solutions. They are just hammering the same nail.

Democrats are rolling over and playing dead (again) as the special congressional election gets near in Georgia's 6th District.

 

[sandybf]

Haha, good joke.

She can stay back and choke.

Bring on Sanders

 

[rareboy]

Sorry kids.

Sanders won't be back. After being a Democrat for the length of time it took to use the machinery of the DNC, he is back to being an important voice in the Senate.

But you should be paying attention to Elizabeth Warren.

If the election wasn't stolen from Bernie Sanders, he would be president right now.

 

[TX-Beau]

Oh please. Bernie didn't get the nomination because he wasn't a Democrat and didn't have any appeal in the middle, plus this is all moot. Sanders won't be the nominee next time for exactly the same reasons.

^^ You just keep telling yourself that.

TrumpCo. would have crushed 'Crazy Commie Bernie' too.

Bernie Sanders still is caucusing with the Democrats. He has rejected recent overtures to lead a new party effort. He is right not to fully integrate himself into the Democratic Party machinery, but still hopes to effect change through the party. Hillary's time has come and gone, take a bow. I do agree strongly that Elizabeth Warren could be a major contender in 2020, as well as Senator Sherrod Brown of Ohio and some others. I hope we get a race, NOT a coronation, for anyone running. And then I hope we get unity. Maybe the time for the current two party system has come and gone as well, especially now that the parties are becoming much more ideologically opposite. Both parties had more conservative and more liberal factions, and that's about extinct in the GOP... I really hope that the Democrats can come together on the basic issues opposing this sharp rightward turn, increasingly nationalist and anti diversity, of the GOP. I don't want a party of rigid ideological purity which cannot govern a diverse country...maybe the divisions can't be healed but we are owed a wholehearted attempt to try for the survival of America as a nation we can recognize and love.

Bernie, for all his faults, was hardly a radical...he's a combination true blue New Dealer/social democrat. And I wouldn't be so dismissive of his chances against Trump, who certainly wasn't known as a lifelong conservative Republican.. or Republican period, though he may well have leaned it. Sanders has had his core values for years. He knows he to govern, is very well regarded in Vermont for his service as Mayor of Burlington and his later years in the House and now in the Senate. DON'T belittle or diminish him. No, he won't be the Democratic nominee next time but he took on the corporate establishment candidate who was surely going to be coronated queen... for all of Russia's(and probably the Trump team) efforts in the end she blew it with Rust Belt America..she and her insulated likeminded ninnies lost this election. She makes the effort in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan..she wins. She didn't...we lost.

Bernie MIGHT have lost to Trump but I think more of his abilities than most of the Democratic Party establishment lovers do. Bernie would not have allowed Trump to take the populist ground, he would have been brutal on the ridiculousness of Trump acting as a defender of the average American. For all you give the Clintons, first and foremost they are corporate America's favorite Democrats... great for Wall Street, the tech industry. The Rust Belt stopped buying the Democratic message because they weren't a priority. Next person who wins the Democratic nomination HAS to appeal for their vote... the more arrogant liberals dismiss those who aren't from the populous blue states as all rubes, dumbfuckistans or inbreds, the more the door is open for even more dangerous populist radical right types to take the vote of Middle and rural America. My values are far more comfortable with a more Democratic Party vision of America than a conservative/ right wing Republican one. But the Dems have enough arrogance and sense of superiority and entitlement that I can understand where those who have doubts about their place in a Democratic party vision of America. Their world as they knew it may well be irrevocably changing, but they are still Americans, still individuals with dignity and self respect who we should try to get on board because our America wants to welcome and work for ALL Americans. We need leaders who not only fight for fairness and opportunity, but realize we are all Americans and we're in it together. People who will be optimistic and positive about how we can move things forward in these transformative times. People who don't merely concern themselves with our cultural and ethnic differences but how our experiences combine to create out of that diversity a uniquely and proudly American one.

Yep. The emails were a run-of-the-mill distraction. Not exactly Watergate.
Who knows what mountain they would have made out of the tiniest molehill caused by Sanders.

And if there wasn't anything, they would have just made stuff up and thrown the lot in the expectation that something sticks.

Like the birther nonsense. Who needs truth when you can just play prejudices?

True but let's not forget: The birther bullshit didn't work. Neither did the death panel nonsense. Obama won the presidency twice.

The emails were not the only issue with Hillbot, come on now.

 

[mikey3000]

Hilary will be dead by the 2020 election.

Awww Mickey, that was a pretty sad attempt at a troll. With all the spectacular universe of Hillary conspiracy out there that's the best you could come up with?

Now if you'd said Hillary will be UNDEAD by 2020, you be getting somewhere.

 

[Kabluey]

Plenty of allegations, but what actually got proven to be true?

The mud flinging machine would have been working overtime to ruin Sanders for everything he's ever done and everything he never did.

We've had agitators and apologists who've even taken on people like the Pope and the Dalai Lama.

These are people who seek to bring everyone to their level, or at least claim they're no less dishonest or evil than people who are their polar opposite

What do you, TX-Beau, believe it means to be a Democrat?

Oh, there are enough Shilary trolls on here without including me in their numbers. I'm just questioning the desperate need for a Clinton to take the reigns again, and the massive machine trying to support her. Kind of makes you wonder what's going on.

No you weren't, you were making a cringe inducing and heart rending, sad attempt to provoke someone. It's OK baby, I understand.

What has that got to do with the price of tea in China?
