The liberal establishment’s Clinton obsession is blowing up in its face
New York Post ^ | September 17, 2016 | John Podhoretz

Posted on 09/18/2016 6:30:34 PM PDT by Mean Daddy

Hey, Democrats, where were you? Hey liberals, where were you? The potential train wreck that is the Hillary Clinton candidacy didn’t just become evident last week when ill-chosen words about 25 million “deplorables” and a public near-collapse tanked her polls to make this a tied presidential race.

No, Democrats and liberals, the possibility of Hillary crashing and burning was there from the outset of her candidacy. And yet you stood there and let it happen.

You Democrats and liberals who did not “feel the Bern” but desperately wanted a Democratic president to succeed Barack Obama — you did nothing to prevent the potential cataclysm that is upon you now. Instead, you’ve spent more than a year chortling at Republican failings, expressing disgust at the rise of Donald Trump and convincing yourselves that your ideological tendency is on the cusp of multigenerational rule in the United States.

John Podhoretz is a #NeverTrumper.

But he points out the Democrats and MSM failed to do due diligence on Hillary Clinton before nominating her.

Now they’re stuck with an unelectable candidate. Talk about hubris.

Sounds like it could become an ethnic name. D’Mensha.

She always reminded me of an aged, dissipated version of the principal in Rock & Roll High School.

But I don't think the cultural reference would resonate with millennials.

“If you’re a partisan Democrat, you hate Republicans. If you’re a partisan Republican, you hate Democrats.”

Definitely the first is true - but if the second were true, there wouldn’t be a single NeverTrumper to be found now.

...and that is our weakness. Hillary, even sick as a dog, is EXTREMELY THREATENING to the future of this country - but many, many, people that claim to be Republicans and care about this country are still trying to enable her victory.

Sad but true.

Democrats always circle the wagon around their candidate. Republicans treat theirs like roadkill.

Really, I think she’s dying.

i am not the kind of person who would say this casually. But she looks seriously unwell.

The entire upper eschelon of the Democrat Party has enough blood on their hands to warrant their mass arrests; and they know it. I don’t see them going quietly into the night.
