Even FOX’s crew hand, Juan Williams, tried to claim that at this early point Hillary just doesn’t really need the big crowds, but simply more the one-on-one type settings where she can, you know, lay out her platform. LOL!!

At some point, this could prove quite embarrassing to Queenie.

From my absolutely, positively non-scientific sampling of chatter across the internet, which includes Facebook, Twitter and various forums, people are actually buzzing about three candidates - Trump, Cruz & Sanders. And not necessarily in that order. What do all three have in common? They're straight shooters - love or hate them or what they say, people are chatting and posting away about those three. Hillary is the butt of jokes and derision, Jebbie B. is MIA. In an image search across the internet there are a lot of photoshop Hillary jokes floating around out there. Saw a lezbo on Facebook post one with an accompanying comment like 'here's a hottie for ya! lol!', the responses were along the lines of 'auugh my eyes!', 'what has been seen cannot be unseen' and so forth. Her support for all practical purposes is from the media, because I'm not seeing it at a personal level. About this far out in time from the 2008 election as we are from the 2016 election right now, it was Obama mania - stuff all over the internet, soccer moms had Obama crap all over their Myspace pages, the shirts, the hats and I personally saw idiots on two separate occasions driving cars that had been completely covered with Obama/Biden stickers. It was off the hook. Am not seeing such electricity for the Hillary at a personal grassroots basis, anywhere. Not even a lousy bumper sticker. Obama was marketed as the cool, hip, young outsider guy, and it worked. Boy did it work. Hillary? "Forward - to the 1990's!"

Very simply, Bernie is far, far more honest and straight forward than the ever elusive madam president in her mind.

Inneresting observations. Thanks. Think Sanders would ever run as an Independent or Socialist? You know, become the (throw up in my mouth) Ross Perot of the left and do what RP did to get the first Clinton elected?

But at some point she’ll have to actually talk at some length with reporters, who, if they’re doing their jobs, will have to ask how she differs from Bernie.

If they are doing their jobs?

If the reporters were doing their jobs Hillary would be toast already. The reporters have no intention of doing their jobs.

If you want to vote for an honest Socialist vote for Bernie.
If you want to vote for a lying, criminal with sociopathic desire for power, Hillary is you girl.

I live in Texas. Texas will vote for the Republican nominee. Even if Cruz is not on the ticket, I will write his name in.

He's there to keep the hard left politically engaged and voting Democrat.

In 2000, take the Internationale Green Party out of the equation.

Just sum up the votes received in Florida by the Socialist Worker's Party, Worker's World Party, and Socialist Party... Al Gore "would've" won with the hard left on the plantation. Can't let them wander off and waste their vote for some fringe Socialist party. Hillary's campaigning to the Left this cycle. It matters not what she's said in previous campaigns. Stalinists lie. ALWAYS

200,000 : Dems who voted for Bush
17,484 : Reform Party
16,415 : Libertarian Party
2,281 : Natural Law Party
1,804 : Workers World Party
1,371 : Constitution Party
622 : Socialist Party
562 : Socialist Workers Party

543 : Bush’s margin of victory in FL

Ooof. Don't get me to lying about that. All I can relate is that after the in-your-face weaseling and duplicitous backstabbing that has been the rage for the past 7 years, citizens are looking - thirsting - for a real champion or two. No more sneaky stuff, just those who say what they mean and mean what they say, whatever their position. That has a big appeal. People are getting to where they hate the fakes. I mean despise them. Those three fellows I mentioned earlier have the establishment bots in a tizzy - they were all geared up for a set-piece campaign affair, now they're having to scramble around and figure out how to still please everyone and not paint themselves into fatal corners while doing so. It's pretty darn hilarious - I hope all the bums run themselves right out of the race, as early as possible.

Actually, it seems to me that the American people are falling for phonies all the time in all fields of endeavor.

TX doesn’t have write-ins except for official write-in candidates.

I don’t think they get the secret-service protection until the President approves it.

Bernie would wrap this up if he had bigger Cankles than Hillary and he started wearing Leisure Suits.

Bums. Yeah. Sadly, the guys who agree with a majority of Americans are the ones being hazed.
