2016 Postmortem

(14,255 posts)Because attempting to establish her as a fait accompli this early is just annoying.
And given what has been leaked so far about the TPP - I would think she would want her name kind of shrouded until she sees what public opinion is going to be about the TPP.
What is her stand on "entitlement" slashing?
What is her opinion on single payer?
I feel she is for the first and against the second, quite honestly.
Those are questions she should either answer now (bearing in mind I have learned that anything said while campaigning is complete and utter lying pandering bullshit) or hold off on the early campaigning.
But "supporting" someone just because she is a woman? Not a damned chance. Hey, why not have Carly Fiorina run?
She has lady parts, just like I do, so I should vote for her, right?
Fiorina is not a Democrat, and Hillary is a third-wayer.
I am hoping for better. Hopefully this won't be another hold my nose and vote election - this is getting pretty damned old.
But if she is such a shoo-in, why all the cheer-leading?
