Haha... Ed Morrissey of HotAir writing this as if he was not part of it. All HotAir did was talk about what a disaster Trump would be on the GOP down tickets.
To this day, Allahpundit is still trashing Trump. Site is a joke.
Liberals were incapable of conceiving that idea, but 52% of the voters had no trouble.
The ongoing evisceration of the Democratic Party at the sub-presidantial level is a fascinating story, one that most Dems I know try to ignore. After 2018 the GOP could actually have 60+ Senators if they don’t screw it up.
I always thought it was crazy that here in Iowa, where Trump was always winning, Dem candidates consistently tried to link Rep candidates to Trump and never distanced themselves from Clinton.
Rather than refer to Hillary as a “boat anchor,” it would be more accurate to refer to her as a “battle ax.”
Hillary was a butt ugly anchor too.
Notice how she hasn’t been seen or heard from since her landslide lose.
I don’t know. I think “boat anchor” fits her dimensions and stage appearance pretty well...
a popular candidate, herself, the campaign had to take Billy off the trail.
He's a spectacle beyond spectacles.....copping that hokey, hillbilly persona.
The entire globe knows him as a practiced conman.... calculatedly shaking down businesses and foreign countries (especially those w/ untapped valuable resources) for big bucks as Hillary gave out official favor after favor.
The Podesta emails added much to the sinking.
Not to mention The Obamas popping up as the biggest anchor of them all.
Get a clue
. Hillary Rotten Clinton is
They are “not allowed” to distance themselves from Clinton. Any such attempt would have buried him politically both inside and outside Dem party. Dem establishment would not tolerate such a treachery, and many Hildebeast supporters, either.
When you look past the diehards on both sides the mushy middle may have looked at it as crude vs criminal.
“Hillarys favorables were almost as bad as Trumps and her numbers on trustworthiness were worse, but almost no one asked whether these Democrats should do more to distance themselves from their partys nominee. Why? They assumed that most voters shared their perspective that Trump was much more unacceptable than Hillary to the point where it looked like the very thought that it might be the other way around was simply inconceivable”
The conduct of the media in the cycle was central to Trump’s appeal. The more unlikable the media became, the more unlikeable Hillary was to the electorate.
Correction: every time Trump said something that the media outlets could spin so as to make it look outrageous or offensive...
The problem with Akin, as with so many Republicans, is that the media relentless looks for a way to spin as offensive anything that a Republican says, and the Republicans fold every time. Trump did not fold. He showed he has the backbone to stand up to the media, and people liked that.
Maybe Ed will get his own show on Levin’s (QTV) Quisling TV network.
Either is as aerodynamic as she.
We boatanchor fans are offended.
Hillary was a terrible candidate and despite all the organization and money she was totally lackluster. It should have been obvious in 2008 when her coronation was upstaged by an obscure junior senator from Illinois. Again in 2016 a doddering socialist with little money and plodding stump speeches beat her in many primaries and was only beaten off by dirty tricks at the DNC.
More like Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Hillary is a dead stinky Albatross carcass we’ve had to endure around our necks (in our lives) for decades. Time to get rid of it and the rest of the maggots etc.
