re: #80 Hecuba’s daughter

A reminder to all: it was the Swift Boat Liars that did Kerry in; the Republicans don’t need an HRC who had decades of verbal assaults against her; they can manufacture outrage on the spot and doom a candidacy because the press won’t hold them to account. The GOP tried the same thing against Obama but it didn’t stick (Rev Wright, Bill Ayers) because Obama had such charisma when his game was on. Most candidates don’t have that degree of personal magnetism. So let’s not assume that the Republicans or their Russian puppet masters won’t bring the Democratic nominee down — look at what’s happening to Northam, not due to some recent error but something that happened 35 years ago.

I get the feeling some of the newer Democrats are not going to be as easy to bash as in the past. The newer Congress is already showing they are more in tune to all the conservative bullshit and tactics.

I think we are going to see a much more full of fight Democratic party come election time.

Everyone is going to be more in tune to what happened to bring us Trump too. We can expect there will be way more pushback from Democrats and their supporters.

If they can control the media message it will be a big help too.
