These same women will probably be likely victims of a CONMAN who ta;ls them out of their life savings when they’re 75 years old.

They often feel that they're not safe from some imagined threat (War on Women) while remaining oblivious to legitimate unimagined threats including how to drive up-level 4-wheel drive SUV's through inclement winter weather.

But Obama told us in that speech that “this is the BEST leadership EVER”!!! I still can’t believe he said that.....anyone have the quote?

The problem with a paid political class of ruling elites is that they can always be bought; I don’t see either party representing American workers as their jobs are transferred to newcoming foreigners.

Moving jobs overseas is a regrettable effect of globalization (though pretending the host countries of said jobs are “enemies” in any way - like Red China - is just absurd theater); it is even worse to bring in foreigners when such a large pool of idle labor exists here. It seems everywhere one can see Asians replacing our white-collar workers and Hispanics replacing the blue-collar ones; the standard of living for American workers is falling quickly, and both parties are complicit.

I don’t know; many female co-workers (black & white) bemoan the fall in their standard of living, and black co-workers in general are fairly downcast - they were briefly tasting real middle-class living (cruises, new cars, putting their children through college), and that has crumbled for them.

In the immortal word of Gen. Honore, Obama’s core supporters are “stuck on stupid.” They would vote a third term and a fourth term, thinking that things would improve if only he has more time. These people didn’t grow up, and the nation is suffering for it.

“Honestly, I just feel that what I bought into is not what I’m getting,”

Kimberly Cole Is an idiot.

“I’m starting to wonder whether the world takes us seriously.”

An idiot begins to wonder.

“I can’t blame it all on him,” she said, but added, “There was going to be a change, that we would see people coming together, instead of falling apart.”

But then falls back into not so blissful ignorance.
She just cant shake being an Obama fool. Ever get
the feeling that natural selection is not working
any more? The only thing liberalism has liberated
is the stupid recessive genetics of the human genome.

They’ve migrated to Hillary. We’re not going to be rid of them anytime soon.

No doubt these same feckless female voters will transfer their enthusiasm to the next Dem marketed as a pro-woman candidate, Hillary herself.

He’s doing just what they wanted - they just don’t want to be involved in the blow-back...

This 36 year old mother should be reminded of what she’s done for the future of her children.

I would much rather they lose confidence in their/his leftist idiocy rather than lose confidence in the person of B. Obama.

Anyone who voted for Obama is such an idiot that his/her current opinions count for nothing.

They’re just getting “Ready for Hillary”. You can’t fix stupid.

I think Lizzie Warren will run and be a formidable opponent for Hillary, myself. It's still stupid that can't be fixed.

When you run promising Skittles-pooing unicorns, eventually you have to actually DELIVER Skittles-pooping unicorns.

There’s a vast pent-up reservoir of economic populism in this country. It terrifies me but Liz Warren could very easily win IMO.
