Word is that Hillary Clinton will announce her vice presidential choice on Friday, and rumors that shes going with a safe pick should worry Democrats. In this political climate, a search for safety could put her candidacy in serious danger.
Change vs. the status quo.
The GOP chose Mike Pence in part because his extremist views will reassure the Republican base. Pence is also an seasoned politician whose nomination is meant to reassure voters who worry that Trump has no experience in statecraft or governance.
(Note to readers: Yes, I just used the words Trump and statecraft in the same sentence. It feels as strange to me as it does to you.)
Clintons needs are different. She has to energize and excite the Democratic base, along with millions of millennials who have never voted. She needs to bring excitement, and a sense of the new, to a campaign conspicuously lacking in those qualities.
Voters remain deeply dissatisfied with the status quo. Clintons biggest problem, and the greatest threat to her candidacy, is the fact that shes seen as the candidate of the status quo.

Corey Booker.........................
Or Trotsky and Karl Marx.
“Cain killed Abel” but us Trump Supporters will take care of that this time...”Pence will take care of Kaine”...
Now, Hillary, just what are you going to do? There is no way your going to win, your mask has been ripped from your face, your lies have caught up with you, your a drunk, a rapist and sexual abuser enabler, married to a pedophile, cheats, steals, is a Lizzie, caused 4 Americans to be killed on Foreign Soil, had ‘henchmen’ kill people here on American Soil....and YOU think YOUR going into the White House, oh darling, the only place YOUR going is to PRISON!!!
I feel their Bern <^..^>
And we all know how extremist your average Hoosier is.
Naked slander. There is no journalism anymore. This crap is better than they dished out for Stalin in Russia.
Not a haiku:
She’s not left enough
To please Hu’n’Puf
She will end up with Ted Cruz if she goes any further past the end of the scale!
She’s so desperate she may have to pick Michelle the Moocher. /s (kinda’)
I completely agree. PIAPS must be true to her radical left wing base.
May I suggest the following for her to choose from:
1. Calypso Louie
2. Al Sharpton
3. Rosie O’Donnell
4. John McCain
5. Lindsay Graham
6. Jeff Flake
Kaine and Unable
-- Freeper Husker8877
Very good move going there - never thought of that.
Great call!
It could become the HillaryKaine instead of the HurryCane.
Tim “Novo” Kaine.
5. Lindsay Graham
You might have something there. With Linda Graham as VP it would be the first all-female ticket!
Well, it’s only “extreme” to those that truly are...on the left. They’re so to the extreme left that anybody that doesn’t think as they do must be “extreme” or “far right”.
Yes, I’m extremely far away from their stupidity.
Yep. What she needs is a Catholic Choir Girl, one that is a virgin, never done drugs and can balance out the satan that is Hillary.
She knows though if she picked a moderate the left will go nuts. Her only option is to pick a real lefty extremist. Which will not go down well. It’s comical they didn’t see this coming.
“Theres NO ONE to her LEFT!!”
Dittos to that. Herself got where she is today by never underestimating the basic greed of people who think they have a shot at the public trough, if it can be done without immediate consequences. The Left is all about the redistribution of resources through non-traditional means, from basic necessities to the most flamboyant of excesses, as long as somebody else is paying for it.
But nobody has ever adequately explained what happens when the redistributionists run out of other people’s money. Imagine Venezuela on a continental scale.
There is an a old adage about not eating the seed corn.
The seed corn is being rapidly devoured.
