Presidential Primaries 2016

[Jrrarglblarg]

The pedo island story made the rounds of Globe magazine and the National Inquirer a while back. I saw the covers in the grocery store checkout lane.

What if she's proven to be a great leader?

She hasn't proven the opposite to you already?

As I have repeatedly stated, I don't think she will be the nominee. Someone we aren't talking about too much will be. And the Republicans will have the same problem as in 2008. They geared up for Hilary and couldn't shift gears.

First the repubs will be busy with their own primary. When it is time to focus on the complete disaster of Obama and how to erase what he did, I'm sure the dem nominee will fall in there somewhere. Hopefully it will be the disaster gov Martin Omalley. or maybe everyone's favorite Cherokee.


All our hope? No, there is another.

I have no idea what this is about. I guess you will blame the media for not covering a contrived issue.[/QUOTE]

No, they will be running against Hilary from the beginning. Just as they did last time.

Another Hillary is a bad person because her husband was a philanderer. I guess that is interesting.

You do realize that Teh Crazy has actually gotten 10x worse since the 90's, right? We can hardly imagine today what's coming down the pike from Know-nothing Land. They'll have H. Clinton eating the heart of a freshly killed unicorn before it's over. You'll be pining for the quaint old days of Barack and Michelle's terrorist fist-bump.

April Fools Day

The rumor is that e-mail server wrangler extraordinaire Hillary Clinton will announce her candidacy for the Presidency on April 1, 2015.

That is all.

You don't think its crazy her and Bill have had this political/marriage situation for years?

You don't think its crazy Bill continues to have affairs with women pretty much in the open?

You don't think it odd bill is paling around with a convicted pedophile?

All the while Hillary continues to "stand by her man"

Do you know any women that would put up with that, and call us crazy?

Quite frankly, there is NOTHING you leftists won't excuse for your darling politicians on the left.

Its bad because she does nothing about it. Do you know anyone else with a marriage like this?

Off-topic for this thread. Kindly knock it off.

Yes. Besides the Republican mayor of a nearby town, LBJ, JFK, FDR, Harding, Grover Cleveland, Ronald Reagan.

You don't think its crazy her and Bill have had this political/marriage situation for years?

No.

You don't think its crazy Bill continues to have affairs with women pretty much in the open?

I don't know that. Do you have evidence?

No idea what this is about.

I thought conservatives thought that was something to admire.

Do you know any women that would put up with that, and call us crazy?

Lots.

Yes, using torture.

Fine, Spindrift answered it.

The repub field is large but, out of that the best will emerge.

What is your definition of best? Most electable? Most capable? Best for the party? Best for the nation? Best for the world?

I feel compelled to ask because the current process can easily produce a victor that is none of those.

On the dem side I agree.

Are you implying that the Republican primaries will result in the best candidate winning the nomination?
If so, what is your definition of "best candidate"?

So, who was the last US. President who earned the title of "great leader"?

I am not asking in order to start an argument, I am simply trying to understand your precise position.

Not trying to speak for anyone else here, but this question has an instant answer for many, many people -- Saint Ronnie of Santa Barbara.

Yes, the divorced union president who gave amnesty to illegal immigrants and raised taxes several times.

Yes. I suppose I wasn't clear in my question. I was not trying to determine who was judged a great leader while he was in office. I was trying to discover who we can look back on and decide that that president was a great leader. Or to be very precise about it, I was trying to determine who Logger would call a great leader while looking back from 2015.

You mean before they were elected?

Well in the 20th century, I'd say prior to being president, regardless of politics.

Great Leadership: Eisenhower, Hoover and LBJ.

Some Leadership, mostly being a governor: Reagan, Carter, Clinton, Wilson, Taft, Coolidge, FDR, TR

Not much prior leadership: Harding, Kennedy, Truman, Nixon, Bush the elder, Ford

I think what is dis-heartening on this post is how you can see a distillation of ignorance with certain posters. A black/white answer to every question. Is Hillary as pure as the driven snow? No. Is Hillary a mashup of Hitler/Bin Laden/Charles Manson. Yes. All things GOP good? Yes. All things Democratic bad? Yes. This generalization cuts both ways.
Are people actually this strident in real life. What happened to reasoned, thoughtful, balanced responses to questions instead of the party line rhetoric?
I truly want to know. Should I blame Fox news, low attention spans, environmental pollution, antibiotics in meat?

Comedy fodder. I'm gonna suggest Cain/McCain for the limerick possibilities.
