The small things will sink hillary - her constant whining and that shrieking mouse voice - are two that immediately come to mind.

She entered the race too early, her personality is grating and sane people are questioning whether they want to listen to a stupid female bash everything they love for 48 months.

Here’s a secret learned by years of playing in dart league with union tradesmen in the northeast: they can’t stand her.

Republicans don’t want Hillary Clinton as president because of her twisted social engineering and her corruption. Democrats don’t want her as president because she’s a woman.

You are far kinder in your assessment than I would be. Hillary’s vast right wing conspiracy charge, her documented loathing of the media and vitually always blaming others for her own shortcomings leads me to characterize Hillary as paranoic.

When an outsider can understand the voting public, why can’t our politicians?

A word that describes my thoughts of Hillary and Bill Clinton hasn’t been created yet.

Run Hillary Run!

RE "...and have a Bible at home"

I suspect that the writer meant to say, " and having a Bible study at home." Many evangelical Christians either attend or host in home Bible studies. My daughter and son-in-law in Sacramento, CA attend a home Bible study (Calvary Chapel), 3rd son and daughter-in-law in Morro Bay,CA host a Bible study (non-denominational), and my husband and I are hosting a Bible study starting January in rural Lyon County, NV.

May I be the first this season to wish you a Merry Christmas.

Willful indifference. Our elites don’t want to understand us. They want us to shut up and submit.

The disconnect actually becomes amusing when it’s an issue like amnesty, which 95% of the elites support and 70% of average people are vehemently against. The elites must think they’ve been hit by a Mack truck. The heartening thing is that those situations, Average Joe still wins.

"It is a land where people shop at Wal-Mart, eat at Dairy Queen, work two jobs to make ends meet and have a Bible at home," he said with a sneer.

Let's face it. This article was written by a Brit elitist who also believes middle America is "flyover" country. He offers the same disdain for my neighbors as do his peers in this country, which only goes to show ignorance is international in scope and virtually universal on the left.

"Many stated bluntly that they did not want a woman in charge." I don't believe that for a second. Maybe not "that woman, Hillary Clinton, but America would easily elect a woman to President if she had the right mix of beliefs, credentials and personality.

Sure they do. They pay big bucks for campaign advisers who are supposed to figure out what we think so the politician can say the right things the right way and get elected.

Not sure what happened with my last post, but I was trying to say:

"Many stated bluntly that they did not want a woman in charge.""

I don't believe that for a second. Maybe not "that woman, Hillary Clinton, but America would easily elect a woman to President if she had the right mix of beliefs, credentials and personality.

If there are any Hillary supporters in my neck of the woods, they are in the closet. Still waiting to meet my first Hillary fan.

“Apart from the war on terror, the issue we were confronted by again and again was illegal immigration ...”

Gee, Americans can’t understand why we should be giving incentives for people to flock to the U.S. illegally. How unsophisticated.

In the past, the left-wing media has been able to foment a strong popular hatred of republican candidates. Barry Goldwater was reviled as a “nut-job” who couldn’t wait to get us into a nuclear war. Ronald Reagan was routinely referred to as “stupid” and a “cowboy” who would also push us into a war without the care and thought that the left-wing “diplomats” would employ. The hit-pieces on the current president began before he even took office and have continued unabated ever after, save for a short respite after 9/11.

But, from my perspective, the general level of hatred for Hillary Clinton, despite her coddling by the media, is even greater than the media-driven hatred for the aforementioned republicans. The folks in flyover country didn’t learn the negatives about her from hit pieces in the NY Times or Washington Post. They figured it out all by themselves.

People, in general, are pretty good judges of character. We’ve all been to social gatherings where we’ve met someone for the first time and quickly decided that this was a good person, or a bad one. And, yes, we’ve all been fooled from time to time, but, by and large, we’ve all been right more often than wrong. And this is why Hillary Clinton has been running such a tightly-scripted campaign, playing the part like an actor rather than a real person. Her handlers know that the moment the real inner-Hillary shines through, the voting public desperately looks elsewhere. She is inherently unlikeable, and the centrists in the undecided, uncommitted middle—the voters who make the key difference in the few remaining key swing states—will trust their instincts and cast their votes elsewhere. And no amount of lobbying from a compliant left-wing media can change that.

Using surveys and focus groups to find the right soundbites isn’t the same thing as understanding us. Acquiring superficial knowledge in order to rebrand a liberal into a temporary “conservative” isn’t the same thing as understanding WHY we prefer conservatism to liberalism. It’s the difference between knowing the what and the why. The elites know the what, most of the time, because they have to, but they never bother to find out the why.

...and have a Bible at home.

Is this really the difference? Just having a Bible?

The MSM, use such terms, in an effort to discredit folks...in other words the subjects are primitive, and unschooled, not of same standard as the MSM intelligentsia....
