I agree. Her negatives are too high. All this time we have been told she is the inevitable one by her machine and syncopants in the media. It was never true.

I'm not remotely an Obama fan, but... GO, BARACK, GO

Be careful what you wish for. I live in the People's Republic of Illinois, and I can tell you he's a hard core leftist. He makes Hitlery look moderate by comparison, which takes effort.

Both Parties seem to be dealing with insurgencies that a splitting them: The Youts vs.The Boomers amongst the Donks and The Fundies vs. The Establishment with the Pubs.

Tell you what it appears to be: The young voters have had enough of Boomers and are getting jazzed about a youngish President and are turning out for the election process. This is the changing of the guard.

I think you are right. The moral decline being witnessed in this country now can be attributed directly to the boomers. And Bill Clinton personified the decline while in office, and Hillary enabled him.

People are fed up with it, and the younger generation is returning to the values their grandparents had.

The worst thing Hilary could have done was to bring Bill into her campaign. People identify those things they don't like with him, and by extension, with her. Even Chelsea wouldn't talk to the press.

Yep, my prediction is that the Baby Boomers will soon be the most despised generation in history. And please keep in mind, I am one of them. Once this selfish bunch of bloodsuckers no longer has the financial clout it once had, the younger folks are going to want to float us all out on icebergs. Or, at the very least, tell us to keep our loutish mouths shut and leave them alone.

Just the other night at an AA meeting, I heard one young fellow say, “If I hear one more old geek whining about Vietnam, I’m going to scream.” My generation has carved out a very sorry niche for itself.

Hillary is DONE.

She is indeed finished. But there is no time to gloat. Obama has to be destroyed. His horrid past and nasty family secrets must be exposed, along with his very late conversion to "Christianity" and his membership in an untra-left wing church with a racist, Marxist pastor.

Bingo! Something I read recently compared this to JFK.

Hillary’s negatives aren’t SO stratospheric that Willard hasn’t garnered higher negatives.

I believe the latest Rasmussen had Hillary’s at 49 and Slick Willard’s at 51.

Rasmussen projects that 40 percent of the Democratic ballots will be cast by independents

This is the key. With not much to choose from on the GOP side, conservatives all over the country are going to be taking a Dem ballot just for the pleasure of voting against Hillary.

There is absolutely nothing the Clinton campaign can do about that voting block. No new slogan or retooled message can subtract that from her equation.

This is going to be a great time watching the progression of her downward spiral.

Schadenfreude!

Bill Clinton was JFK, too. Anytime the Dems get a young candidate, it is Camelot all over again for the left.

Get ready for the Clinton slime-machine to drop the big one on Barry.

I agree. And the next question is: Does Obama have the gonads to fight her and push back in kind?
So far he hasn't shown the will, nor ability to do so.
