I can live with the laugh, otherwise she is in the right place on the issues. Most of the other candidates both republican and democrat are very short on good ideas and understanding the rest of the world. If Trump wins I will have to immigrate somewhere.
While I thought Chaffee’s excuses were lame, I think that he has a pretty good record for a Republican. Actually, for a Republican, he has an excellent record. But his support for the TPP was the final nail in his coffin. (Now guess how I feel about Obama’ pushing it like it’s the Holy Grail, and Hillary’s weasel words claiming she now opposes, well, some bits of it).
“…… More qualified than a business tycoon and a BRAIN SURGEON?…..”.Absolutely! This is about running the country, not a medical procedure or maximizing individual profits.
Wow, there’s a cheap shot. How about this:One of the best lawyers in the country, a former Senator and a tough Secretary of State with a history of working with people in government, versus a reality show host specializing in conning people into using his name and suing them when it doesn’t work and a doctor with NO LEADERSHIP EXPERIENCE WHATSOEVER and remarkable ignorance of the world at large?Yeah, I know who I’d pick from THAT field.
Some people change their minds based on new facts. The Republican candidates all refuse to change their minds from their dogma and myths.
If any Republicans still were represented by the likes of Mark Hatfield, their party might be relevant. If Democrats still had more Tip O’Neils(sp) at the same time, Congress might accomplish something.
If we elect another Cheney/“W” to the White House, the “middle class”, and chances for peace in the world, will both disappear.
What “frightens me” is more intellectual than physical, and it’s the absolute stupidity that ignores ALL facts and reality in “conservative” radicals today. “Radicals” on the left do exist, yes, but they’re a minority. Far more on the left look at facts, and do analysis, then make decisions, and certainly don’t march in the alleged “lock step”, though yes, just as with conservative majorities, a minority indeed do.
The danger is dogma, left or right, political or religious, another name for that could be ignorance, which could be fixed, but hs become stupidity, which, well, can’t.

The Republican fear of a trouncing by the considerably more qualified Hillary just got notched up a tad.

If you think Hillary is in the right place on most issues, you must have hated her in 2008

Calling Bill Clinton a rapist is disgustingly scummy behavior.

Well, Mike Huckabee just endorsed slavery for thieves because it’s in the Bible. And then there’s Trump “anything for business”.

The ignorance here is phenomenal. People still believe that they still have a choice. . .
