Hillary Plots to Revive Clintonism in 2018 Elections
Observer ^ | 7/10/2017 | Michael Sainato

Posted on 07/10/2017 7:27:13 PM PDT by simpson96

Although Clinton lost the election, she is still trying to run the Democratic Party by other means. The Hill reported on July 8 that Hillary Clinton is planning to campaign and fundraise for Democratic congressional candidates in 2018. The article states that she will use her Super PAC, Onward Together, as a fundraising apparatus.(snip)

“She also is looking at the House districts she won in last year’s presidential contest against Donald Trump as part of an autopsy of her failed campaign, according to two sources who have spoken to the former secretary of state,” Amie Parnes, a co-author of Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign, wrote for the Hill. Democratic leadership has continued to use Clinton’s strategies, even though Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff received a smaller share of the vote than Hillary Clinton did in the same district in Georgia’s special congressional election this year. Nationwide, Clinton won wealthy suburbs in record numbers, including 23 congressional districts that are currently held by Republicans. In an op-ed for Politico, Clinton staffer Jesse Ferguson wrote, “Democrats have to solidify the support of Romney-Clinton voters if they have any hope of retaking Congress.” The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) conducted focus groups on Americans who voted for Mitt Romneyy in 2012 and Hillary Clinton in 2016 to incorporate this strategy moving forward. In July 2016, Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer infamously said, “For every blue collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia, and you can repeat that in Ohio and Illinois and Wisconsin.” He was wrong and continuing to rely on this strategy ensures that the Democratic Party will remain in the minority indefinitely.

Actually, this is GOOD news. A born loser, and this keeps anyone she endorses from getting elected. Let’s go for it.

We’ve been hearing a lot of talk, under the radar, that critical masses of Democrats are through with the Clintons, and want to move on.

How does this reconcile with Democrats moving on? Hillary’s going to plant herself in congressional campaigns, whether the candidates want her or not, whether the party officials want her or not???

Has anyone told Hillary that Democrats are moving on from the Clintons??? Are Democrats too afraid to go to the Clintons and tell them that their time has come and gone?

It’s not her age. Wouldn’t matter if she were 35 or 95. She’s a dangerous narcissist who defines a whole group of losers who thought/think that the college/graduate school they went to entitles them to run the world. In reality, the world would be markedly better off if no one from their academic backgrounds were allowed anywhere near public office.

So Hillary ‘won’ these Congressional districts. But 2016 was also a Congressional election year. Did Democrats take these seats, or were they held by Republicans? Seems like a reasonable question to ask.

Very good points.

And will the few younger Dems with high aspirations stand by and let her push them aside?

Mixed feelings here.

On the one hand I wish the “Clinton Machine” would just go away forever.

On the other, Killary is an albatross for the Democrats, best of luck to her.

Just read today that Barry is back into politics. I think the untold story is camp Clinton and Camp Barry are fighting for control of the party. Should be fun to watch.

Are Democrats too afraid to go to the Clintons and tell them that their time has come and gone?

Probably, but they’re not afraid to lambaste and demonize Republicans on a daily basis. If some of that energy WERE put on telling the Clintons to butt out of Demonrat politics, they’d be on the next plane with their millions of corrupt dollars to the first country that doesn’t have an extradition agreement with the United States.

What exactly is Clintonism? I didn’t know they had an -ism. Arrogance, power-madness, and their willingness to sell out to the highest bidder. Is that it?
