    Clinton I won't be voting for as much as I'll be voting against whoever she ends up running against.
    Isnt it kind of shocking that seemingly for the most part the popular election will be won by somebody no one really wants to vote for? But still given the options, a four year old given to tantrums, a nascent leader of the American Taliban and a political insider who is as responsible for policy that created this mess as anyone.......and then there's poor Bernie. The fix was always in. At least Vermont is a nice place to live.

    Time to buy more stock in gun and ammo manufacturers. And more guns and ammo. There may be room for even more upside with Hillary in there.

    Hillary made a nice political commercial with MSNBCs Rachael Maddow last night. It was called a "Town Hall". She spoke in a very "Presidential" way and in the background the target of her affections nodding in agreement to everything she said was a young African American woman. The youth, the blacks, the women.......will all go out and put Bernie out of his misery today. Clinton is easily the most qualified and least likely to cause havoc in the nation for the next four years.

    She said enough things I agree with to get my vote in the general election. I think I am generally a good representation of the rust belt. Clinton will do very well here.

    Her opposition was busy calling each other cry babies, whiners and cheaters. They are only right about one thing. They are all losers and the down ballot will show just how bad of losers they are. The Dems will reclaim the Senate and then Obama will get very jealous of Clinton's ability to get things done.

    She said last night that 50% of her cabinet will be women. She said there will be a strong military component to her administration. She said she would attack the "gun culture" at the voting booth by purging politicians that support the gun lobbyists. She said she would advance women's rights issues of equal pay and workers rights issues regarding the poor trade agreements that allow shifting jobs overseas. She would make companies that do this pay back every cent of taxpayers money and incentives they received.

    She said she would get government out of the business of making money from student loan interest and allow students to refinance at lower rates. Work for a debt free education and provide a model for education that included universal preschool. She said she would restructure the criminal justice system so that fewer were incarcerated and more were rehabilitated.

    While she was making statements of policy......the toddlers were fighting over the last chocolate milk left in the lunch line.

    It's certainly true there's a clear contrast between the parties this year. The Republicans have fielded a group of contenders only a comedy writer could love. The Democrats talk earnestly about issues while their potential opponents are throwing feces at each other. I'm enjoying my no-news diet immensely.

    If you're on a "no-news diet", how is it that you know these things?

    I should have specified "no TV news." I skim articles on line. Or I'm telepathic. I could have stopped watching months ago--and reading, as well--and I'd still have a good idea of what was going on. More of the same.

    I don't see how she can defeat pols who support gun rights. What would some of her tools be here? She cant withold party fund Ng dor their fampaigns because they are not of her party. Or are they? Maybe she will take democratic Party money to target them? She surely cannt t use taxpayer money to d deat them. Or can she?

    Requiring companies to "pay back" legitimatly gained bus Ness incentive seems churlish and certainly a formula for panic on Wall Street.

    I should be glad that her cabinent will have a lot of vaginas sitting around the table at Cabinent meetings? There is probably a Clinton Co. joke in there somewhere.

    She's campaigning as a socialist because, well, these days a Democrat can't gain the necessary support without a socialist platform. I've heard it said and believe it's true that if socialists understood economics, they wouldn't be socialists.

    Dude! It's her turn!

    Stop with your patriarchal negativity already.

    Honestly, for the life of me.......why did the GOP have only the saddest of the sad as candidates to offer, if they truly want the White House? I myself have issues with Hillary but she will get my vote over what the GOP offers.....at least Dems are speaking of actual issues. Should they win and should anything change remain to be seen. Rob
