that's it...

Just keep spewing inaccurate memes and bull**** in the hopes there are more "stupid voters" coming every day to believe it.

If you have something besides cartoons, blogs, or pictures that demonstrates that the GOP is ONLY old white men, supply it or shut the **** up.

You can't and we already know that.

One day the base is all crazy right wing war mongers. Then the base is all those nutty Christians. Then it's all rich people. Now it's all old white men.

I swear, I can't keep up with the daily talking points sometimes.

Nor can I frankly.

They're frightened. I think the devastating hit they took last year has them on the ropes. There isn't a thread about conservatives anymore that deals with the subject, just empty memes repeated so often they're antiques.

"Stupid voters" is dead on, Mr. Gruber. None of them has even Goggled the demographics of the last vote, understandably so, as they lost so many young women, so many young blacks, all that gave them the edge in '08.

They don't realize the world has changed in the face of Obama's lies and incompetence and whistle past the graveyard with empty predictions about two years from now while not having accepted the news they lost.

As Debbie Washed out head said "we know we are right".......right up there with "The Titanic cannot sink"

So far,. we have seen one solid candidate, an septegenarian has been wife of a president and little else as contenders, while the field of Republican sniffers grows daily, usually a sign that they see weakness and a serious shot at it.

Meanwhile, we have Hillary still not confirming she's running and little else....

Not exactly a forumula for success....so we can take the howling of "Republicans will be shoved off the map" as pure dreamland fantasy bull****. If ever I have seen a political party bankrupt of talent and ideas, the Democrats are it
 
Maybe John Hickenlooper, good for Pennsylvania, good for Colorado.

He is the chairman of the national governors association, was a businessman and has some good democratic points of view.

Arkansas governor Mike Beebee is a possible option.

Xavier Becerra, latino, chairman of the house democratic caucus.

Julian Castro, latino, secretary of housing and urban development.

Bob Menendez, latino

Deval Patrick, governor of Massachusetts

Janet Napolitano
 
I ca see Castro as a strong candidate. Especially if the GOP can begin to appeal to the minorities.

They aren't stupid. Everybody is going to go after minorities into the foreseeable future. My educated guess is the GOP will pick Rubio or Carson as VP running mates. Jeb Bush has Latino appeal all by himself being married to a Mexican immigrant, fluent in Spanish and with Latino kids.
 
Tell us all about that after the 2016 election. :roll:

Why? It doesn't matter who gets elected if they have no talent or leadership qualities. We all know that isn't required to get votes, Obama got elected twice, right?
 
I simply do not know. He had best be good, younger and healthy ..
 
If she choses one of them (which is possible), and her opponent is Jeb, the Hispanics will feel like wishbones very quickly with the way they will be vying for the votes.

I wonder who is going after the boring old white person vote?


Sorry...but you are wrong. Latinos are not stupid like you are insinuating. They vote for people based on issues just like white people do (gasp....I know its hard to believe). Very few are going to vote for Bush because he married a Latina. Sorry....give non-whites a little more credit.
 
I highly doubt it would be Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, or John Kerry. I don't know who she will pick, but it won't be any of them.

probably someone from the South
 
I wonder if the blacks will come out in droves in support of Hillary the way they did Obama?

I agree with your point about the black daughter versus the man who had a black father (sperm donor actually). It didn't help McCain.

Or, you know, there's always the possibility that black support for Obama had nothing to do with race and everything to do with his policies on civil reform, which is a key issue of the black political demographic.

1) black voting percentages for Obama were not all that different than their support for white candidates

2) however, black turnout for Obama was far far higher than for white candidates
 
Someone young and very very liberal. Right now she oozes "old guard." She's old, corporatist, warhawkish, traditional, and she's a long-time member of the party establishment. I can easily see a significant portion of the Democratic base leaving her in the dust for the LP or Greens. So she needs to throw a bone to the new age "99%ers" and "democratic socialists." Warren, perhaps?
 
If this elitist 1%er with offshore bank accounts wins the nomination, then the Dem party has proven to be total hypocrites (which we already knew).

NOW you think rich people with offshore bank accounts are evil. If only you had realized this when Romney was your guy.

Not someone young. Both parties have now thrown out the idea of having a young up and comer in the spot of death. Someone old that will get the base excited but has generally outlived their usefulness. Harry Reid?
 
blacks are more likely to turnout for a black politician than a white one

What a load of crap. Most happened to like Obama, who is technically only half-black btw, over McCain and Romney. Ok? They prefer the Democrats in general regardless because, as I said, civil reform is a key issue in that demographic, and the Democrats, at least in rhetoric, are strong on civil issues.

You think if the GOP puts up Ben Carson or something that they will all come running? Cause that's a bubble that will be burst rather quickly.
