Let's get this straight ... hillary's name is out there because they have nobody to run .. not against the Republicans ... but with the American people

America has awakened and we're more politically aware and savvy and the dumbocrats know they can't pull another obola on us.

Personally ... I think some sort of dictatorship will develope that will force our hand into an armed conflict ... at which time we will be SO fractured (unions strike ... leave the docks unattended, f'rinstance) .. it will be chaos

Either that or we raise Norman Rockwell from the dead and make him PR man.

The GOP slogan should be “Four more years of Obama.”

This election is the Republicans to win or lose depending on who they choose to run.

If they give us another McCain or Romney they’ll have thrown away the election.

Neither Cleveland in 1888 nor Gore in 2000 won a majority of the popular vote. They won a plurality but less than 50% of the total votes cast.

The 'Rats may have "won" the popular vote 5 of the last 6 times, but only 2 of those were majorities.

In the last 70 years there have been only 3 times when a Democratic nominee received 51% of the popular vote--LBJ in 1964 and Obama in 2008 and 2012. Carter apparently got barely more than exactly half of the popular votes, but less than 51%.

Since the Civil War, the Democrats have won 51% of the popular vote only 7 times--the 3 just mentioned and the 4 times FDR ran for President.

Of course what matters is the electoral college, where they have an advantage. The Republican must win most of the evenly-divided states to win.

Only Jeb Bush can lose to Hillary. That’s why the RNC will get him nominated. Only Romney could have lost in 2012. Only McCain could have lost in 2008. Seeing a pattern here?

The GOP exists at this point to block conservatives from power. The sooner we wake up to that reality and abandon it, the better off we’ll be.

Ask around: Washington is pretty certain Hillary Clinton is the favorite to win the White House. Democrats have a natural turnout advantage in presidential years, seasoned political operatives reason. Five of the past six popular-vote tallies have gone to the Democratic candidate. And early polls that show Clinton sporting a big lead, especially among women, have strategists wondering how the Republican nominee could ever catch up.

This is what I have been saying for years. Over half the nation is dependent on big government for some portion of their livelihoods. The GOP can't win another election. We are getting dumber and dumber every generation. And dumb = Democrat rule = servitude and slavery.

Scott Walker has a good line about “tired, old, worn out, Washington. I think it’s excellent, because it sounds EXACTLY like Hitlery.

Obama won in ‘08 because people were suckered. He won in ‘12 because to stole it. Clinton will win in ‘16 if Jeb Bush is her opponent. Diehard Dims want the Hildebeest; NO ONE wants Bush.

Clinton will not be the Democratic nominee in 2016.

Some other Bright Shiny Object will come along and steal it from her, again.

Nobody wanted her in 2008. We have been through six years of disaster because people have to pretend they really like Barack Obama to justify their dumping of Hillary back then.

The same thing will happen in 2016.

Fortunately, the Democrat who replace Hillary does not have a chance in the general election, so he or she will be a historical footnote.

Stupid people think economics are immediate response to who is President (like the internet bubble busting , then Bush came into office, people blame Bush). Policies take time to have a positive or negative effect in economics.

Heard something interesting about Hillary on the radio this afternoon that I didn’t know before - after graduating from Yale Law she had wanted to stay in Washington to practice with some big law firm, but she flunked the DC bar exam - primarily why she ended up back in Arkansas as first lady - not exactly the smartest woman in the world......

In 2012, for example, most strategists think Obama won because he ran one of the best presidential campaigns in American history while Mitt Romney ran one of the worst.
Seriously? These 'strategists' all must be his friends. From what I saw, it was bob the builder's motto, paid fainters and a whole 'lotta voter fraud.

Notice that the Cult of Personality cannot even fathom a candidate other than Hillary. I doubt she will win their nomination... and it will take some real work by the GOP to find someone who will lose to the grilled cheese sandwich that the Dems do eventually nominate (Biden? Kerry?)
