That's fine, but let's not pretend it is primarily because of the loser during the primary or general election issue. That's been something rather contentious since the beginning of our election process. Even though the set-up was different, Jefferson did lose out to Adams, and Adams lost out to Washington, Andrew Jackson lost out to John Quincy Adams; and more recently George H.W. Bush lost to Reagan.

Well I think it is because she lost. I can think that.

And again, if she is nominated, Benghazi will haunt her. I trust her primary opponents will use it as well.
 
Still don't think Hillary will win.

She shouldn't win. If she does she'll screw up the country ALMOST as bad as Obama is doing. She's a flaming liar and a spiritual slug who has thrown God and his Word under the bus with her pro-gay nonsense, her support for infanticide abortions, and her support for the left-wing's covetousness and greedy redistribution of wealth scheme. That on top of her ignorance in supporting ObummerCare and her pathetic decisions relating to our murdered personnel in Benghazi. The woman is as corrupt as the day is long.
 
Yes.

When she became SoS, I thought she would actually do a good job at that. Guess I was wrong.
 
Still don't think Hillary will win.

Whether she does or doesn't, who ever wins the Democratic nomination will be the odds on favorite to win in the general. Mainly due to the huge advantage Democrats now hold in the Electoral College Map.
 
I love loaded polls. Do i think "Her and bill will save the country", i dont know. I dont know even what that means. But yes she will Run for POTUS

In my opinion, people may be under the false impression that Clinton was responsible for the growth of the 90's. My solid opinion is he was simply in the right place at the right time. There was a paradigm shift in the semiconductor industry along with the Y2K scare and internet Al Gore invented. With a republican congress, Clinton could only do little harm in the way of trade agreements.

NAFTA had a whole lot more republican votes than democratic one. But the economy is like the weather. No president or government can control the economy. If they could we would always be in an upswing cycle.

I was actually OK with NAFTA because it would help our immediate neighbor and I had hoped it would reduce or stop illegal immigration. Then the other trade agreements followed, and undercut the purpose of NAFTA.

I agree, republicans are at fault too. In the same token, those wanting to praise Cli9nton should remember that it takes both congress and a president to make these bills become law.

A liar, erhm, I mean lawyer? I think we've had enough of that. How about someone who isn't a career politician?

Screw that. Outsiders suck. Even socialists can recognize the foolishness of that, and they have a damn long history of having their heads up their collective bums in terms of what gets revolution going.

Because the non-outsiders have done so well.

They have, actually. Even those more among the periphery have historically become institutionalized (I'm thinking the Whiz Kids of the Kennedy years) and have moderated their high hopes.

And that will work well with reliable Republican voters, but with everybody else Benghazi just doesn't have legs.
 
Career politicians rarely bring any good to the political table in Washington. They are for the establishment, not for the people. There needs to be a term limit on every single office and chair. Also, the salary needs to go down. George bush isn't even president anymore and he still gets the presidential salary FOR LIFE.

Benghazi is a bit overblown, but you must admit, she and Obama handled that poorly.

"Poorly" must be your attempt at ironic understatement. Obama, I have noticed, can be relied upon to do two things during every crisis: freeze, and then put out a different (often contradictory) statement on the crisis every day. Even better is when his entire administration is doing the same thing at the exact same time. Obama's crisis management skills seem nonexistent.

As for Clinton I thought she comported herself rather well throughout that whole fiasco.

Obama doesn't know how to lead, govern, or speak for himself from his own thoughts. He's like a puppet on a string out there. Turn off the TelePrompter and his face will go blank.
 
That's wasn't a comment but a question I asked.

What's that about intelligence ?

Comments and questions aren't mutually exclusive.
