Clinton’s VP Pick
Dilbert.com ^ | 7/23/2016 | Scott Adams

Posted on 07/23/2016 9:15:59 AM PDT by GilGil

Now add Tim Kaine to the mix. In our irrational minds – where we compare everything to our personal experience – Kaine will play the part of the beta male husband whose wife can’t stop complaining about her terrible co-worker, Donald Trump. No guy wants to hear eight years of that. They get enough of it at home.

My prediction is that Kaine will do nothing to improve Clinton’s standing with women. But the Clinton-Kaine ticket is a persuasion disaster in terms of the male vote. Male egos are probably already at a historical low point. Kaine puts a face to that movie. Will men vote to watch Hillary Clinton make Tim Kaine her Whitehouseboy for eight years?

Let's get used to the idea of a Trump landslide.

Without a playbook the democrats have no idea what to do so they make one mistake after another. Trump has made sure there is no playbook. Picking Kaine is another catastrophe.

The number 2 trending hashtag on twitter right now is #Kaineandunable!

Here comes the Trump landslide.

Polling data and demographics say otherwise.

We can call them HildeKaine a disfiguring disease disguised as a political campaign.

How many white men who “identify as” heterosexual (or even as male) are left in these United States? A dwindling number, it seems.

The Eyebrow brings Hillary nothing.
I just wish he’d resign his Senate seat to run as VP.
He won’t because he knows they are going to lose.

Which is why I, the FR curmudgeon, still thinks the election is Hillary’s to lose.

Her coming freak show could help her do it.

And we’re waiting to see what kind of bounce Trump will get out of his just concluded convention.

I think the DNC convention is going to be an all out pander to the black vote and Kaine was picked to try to keep the (somewhat) sane White Dems from fleeing the party forever.

>>Polling data and demographics say otherwise.

Have you been following Scott Adams’ blog for the past few months? Polling data is not trustworthy in this race because people will not admit what it is that draws them to Trump and they won’t admit that they are repulsed by Hillary for the reasons he stated in the article posted in the OP.

Seriously!

You are going to trot that out.

Trump had no chance in the primaries. How many times did we here that. The polls, the polls, the polls said Trump should have stayed home.

By October it will look as if Trump is running unopposed!

Black racists are not going to vote for a white woman.

We all know the black Obama vote was strictly racist.

I don’t see them warming up to Hillary who doesn’t have the star appeal of Obama.

That weird leftist chick that's always on Ted Baxter - Kirsten Powers - she sez Kaine brings in the "boring white guy vote"

Leftists don't even know when they're stereotyping and being racist, do they?

What about diversity? The liberals constantly preach to us about diversity.

So how does hillary defend picking yet another white man as her running matewhen there are so many qualified minority candidates to choose from???

There’s no way picking Kaine helps with white men. Hillary polls terribly with white men. This pick does not help her attract additional support. At best, the various minority groups within the Democrat coalition consider this a neutral choice. At worst they will feel “dissed”,and overlooked, as they go for yet another white man.

Victory? Hopefully. Landslide? Nope.

We have the entire leftmedia and political establishment arrayed against us. Any weakness will be exploited, any fraud perpetuated. You don’t really think all these assembled ass***** are going to go away without being dragged out kicking and screaming, do you?

This “landslide” meme breeds complacency and complacency assures defeat.
