(32,886 posts)I expect you will be posting an apology/retraction as soon as the Republican smear campaign against her, led by neocons and their wall street supporters starts?

(11,518 posts)It's not because Republican's still want one of their own in seat but will still be happy with Hillary.
Of course they're going to smear her, what do you expect.

(32,886 posts)she doesn't win?
You cannot possibly believe that.

(6,323 posts)Railing on her would ensure her nomination, supporting her would discourage that.

That fight to the death"? We are watching it played out right now with President Obama. It's a smoke screen replay for anyone gullible enough to believe it.
We do not want another Third Way DLC president. Maybe you do.

cause the future's so bright. Ostrich syndrome, you know. There is no possible way it could be reality, it's just plain ridiculous, never in a million years! Republicans would never stoop that low, we just need to reach across the isle right?
It's taken 8 years for Obama to learn you can't deal with Republicans. How long is it going to take you to understand the depravity they would reach to get what they want.
Your not dealing with people anymore, not politicians with empathy that are representative of the people, your dealing with something much larger that is devoid of empathy or reasoning. Power and greed is all it understand.
When was the last time a huge corporation did anything out of empathy. Have you not witnessed what Free Trade does to people?
Have you been asleep?
Willfull ignorance is what the GOP base practices, I thought Democrats were better than that. But if that's your bag, do yourself a favor and don't project it.

I was expecting that. I guess?? You wish.
Thanks for the completely intelligent diatribe. It was ridiculous.

Gotta keep the bills paid no matter what. Glad you can make a living off other people's misery. It's cute.

He's a shill that gets paid to promote Hillary.
I'd rather get my political information from a million other resources than him.
Thank you for the morning giggles.

(1,555 posts)But they wont do it until they've successfully hedged their bet, and Hillary is the party Nominee. Then, they'll lambast her full well in the knowledge that the options will be a moderate republican and a psycho republican. Either way, the Neocons and wall street win.

(34,589 posts)Even as they castigate Mr. Obama, the neocons may be preparing a more brazen feat: aligning themselves with Hillary Rodham Clinton and her nascent presidential campaign, in a bid to return to the drivers seat of American foreign policy.
I may be wrong here, but IIRC Hillary's foreign policy stances of note have been indistinguishable from the Neocon positions.

(12,778 posts)But the private consensus is similar to what Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein said to POLITICO late last year when he praised both Christie before the bridge scandal and Clinton. I very much was supportive of Hillary Clinton the last go-round, he said. I held fundraisers for her.

(168 posts)In 2000 al gore wasn't good enough so we voted for nader and got bush. Mrs clinton will win in 2016 elizabeth warren maybe at best. Push for warren for vice president to keep hillary on the strait and narrow.

(57,936 posts)If we elect Hillary, she will make sure that we move even faster toward becoming a corporate-run nation. Check the record on Open Secrets. See who is behind Hillary for yourselves.
Then check Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren and any other candidate you think would make a good president. Compare and decide.
I will not vote for Hillary. You can count on that. If Hillary cannot win California without my vote, she cannot win anywhere.

(1,555 posts)And let us not forget the SCOTUS angle. Whomever is the next president will nominate the next set of justices. I'd personally rather not have more corporatists on the supreme court.
They've already given such lovely gifts such as Citizen's United and Hobby Lobby...
