Trump has "succeed" by taking all attention off of everything that Hillary Clinton has ever done. Instead she is literally running on a platform, of "hey y'all watch him!". That is why the damage has been done. This isn't a Presidential election, it is a circus. No one is looking at HIllary anymore.

I wholeheartedly agree with southsider - this election, particularly the RNC, is a travesty of our democracy, but largely, self-inflicted. At Thanksgiving, our family discussed the situation - as we are all largely independent and vote our conscience in all cases. One of my sisters lived in DC and I told her that I felt sorry for those folks who take this stuff seriously. whatever your political sway, there are serious people, many of them young, who work for these institutions and in my opinion, are getting hurt. They are well educated, good people, part of our national treasure, and this experience is souring them plenty on the process. My own opinion is that the RNC is "reaping" what they "sowed" - and yeah, this looks deep and wide in terms of the future - especially given the way the electoral maps have been redrawn to carve up "safe" RNC districts and pack unsafe ones into mega-color districts. (Think I'm making it up? - take a look at your own district's history. Ever wonder why MC got put into the 1st and out of the 2nd? Probably too many people of color for the 2nd, which used to be a greatly contested district of yesteryear. ) What happens is that it is easy to keep the House, but impossible to get the White house and dangerous for the Senate. Google ALEC + congressional districts. Ah ha! For more on defections at the RNC, seeYoung People Leaving RNC . As far as corruption is concerned, I won't go into the Clinton Foundation, et al, as fox news is doing a great job on that - perhaps hourly. But here is something you won't hear on fox news Trumps' tax dodge in NJ under Christie. Corruption is part of the insiders' game, and up rooting it here or Russia is simply not easy. Nor is it one-sided - ever! So here is your new mouthpiece, give the last guy was caught in some unsavory escapes in Ukraine Trump's New Man. How is a person like this ever going to appeal to anyone other than angry white guys? And guess what - there are less and less angry white guys every year! (I am white, middle class btw.). Madam Secretary may not be the best to anyone, but she will be the best for everyone - me, you, Wall Street and maybe even a few Bernie supporters. Bill Clinton got us family leave, plant closure act (Trump supporters forgot that one I'm sure), kept us out of war and economic ruin, and fooled around - so what! Bush gave us trillion dollar wars, scores of dead young men, a bunch more with PTSD, economic turmoil and yet the rich got richer - amazing. Yeah, vote that way again for a guy who maybe even worse than that! Obama also kept us out of war, guided one of the biggest economic recoveries in human history (and, probably didn't notice that the USA economy skipped the recessions in China and Europe!!), and gave us universal health care. And they want to string them up. Why American 99%ers vote against their interests is beyond me and I'm likely to die with that. Hope my sons do better. It isn't the Clintons or Obama's fault that you got Trump - it is your RNC - who lauded him because of the new voters. But they were silly- those were new voters to the primaries!!! Open primaries were new as well, which skewed results. Court a dying breed - die with them. Court the new folks - Latin, young people, techies and more people with health care issues - you win. I thought Cruz might challenge Clinton because he is smart, but that ship sailed. Obama haters better start focusing on defeating Bayh et al., or it will be a blue Christmas big time. |
