The Kitchen Sink

Through all the slander and mis-characterization directed at Bernie from the Clinton juggernaut I say...

...Please proceed Madam Secretary.

The more inaccurate she goes the more voters for Bernie. That's how I see this unfolding in this information age we live in now.

If that's the kind of staff she'd take to the WH, we'd be at war with Chad within a month and it would win.

The sad part is that most people don't know dick shit! I advise people take the advice of John Prine and "turn off the TV, throw away the paper" Start looking for those independent news sources, and if you have them share them.
It's really hard if you have a life to get a true understanding of what's going on. Add to that the supreme mind-fking that distorts our perception.
From what I've heard about the political elite they pretty much were the hangers-on and wanna be's that had the right connections. Not always all that bright and their moral compass was always spinning.

Pay grade and IQ aren't the same thing and promotion doesn't make you any smarter, just gives you more opportunity to f*ck up in spectacular ways.

So far in her previous campaigns her numbers have never gone up over time (fav) only down (unfav tend to go up), add to that the direct involvement of David Brock's superpack directly coordinating with the campaign (supposedly against the law, but it appears some are still above the law), add also the kitchen sink strategy and the many recent lies she has been caught in (IMO a byproduct of hiring Brock) I expect her numbers to change.

Last published results she had an UNFAVORABILITY rating of 56% (no one has ever won a general election with numbers that bad).

I suspect she may be closing in on 60%, if she hasn't topped that personal best ... err I mean worst.

Who would vote for George Bush?

Hillary hasn't lost until Bernie sits in the White House. I expect plenty of dirty tricks and out-right vote rigging.

This is not about Dems vs Republicans or conservatives vs liberals.


This is about the gravy train. Dem or Repub, the gravy train must be protected. It has been truely eye opening to see the masks finally being dropped this election.
