re: #178 SteveMcGaziBolaGate

I disagree about the importance of her last campaign. It was the most important race of her life. There should have been nothing left in the bag, but it turned out there wasn’t much in the bag. The lifetime of accomplishment was never discussed. She was a lawyer. She was a first lady. She won a noncompetitive Senate seat. She had one crucial vote while sitting in that seat and chickened out. She should have trounced young Senator Obama with that lifetime of achievements, but all she gave us was Snipergate, white skin, and Reverend Wright.
I’m just as worried as everybody else about a Republican President picking SC justices, ditching treaties, and relaxing regulations (for starters). But I think it’s more than fair to argue that Hilary Clinton is running a lousy campaign (again) and can blow this race. I argue that you can’t count on Democrats turning out to vote. People also keep forgetting about voter ID laws that will render many polls meaningless. Somebody has got to get her off her butt and start running a campaign that can win.

I know this comment was last evening, but it points out something I’ve noticed with other people I talk politics with.

You admitted you are a Republican…and all the points you bring up about Hillary are all generated from a Republican perspective. Yet you say you will vote for her, but complain like a Republican about her.

What you should admit is you are really really frustrated by the bullshit in your own party that makes you sick of them. Yet, again you buy that bullshit and use it as they intend against Hillary.

You sir have a Republican problem. It is not Hillary, you just target her because you can. And why can you, because she is a Democrat and you are a Republican. A pissed off Republican trapped into voting for a Democrat.

Why don’t you still vote for Hillary, but start to work on why your party is so fucked up. It will help us all. And if the Republicans weren’t the dirty politics wankers they are, you probably would have a different opinion of Hillary.

And one more point about what is obviously a deep frustration with your party. You criticize Hillary for not having any accomplishments. Please list for us all the accomplishments of the Republican candidates. I bet you have a problem with it, and there is your problem. They are less qualified to be President than she is.

You don’t like Hillary because she is the best candidate your party can’t enter into the fray. So, you bitch about her.

We all try to touch the ones that can be touched. Your party is out of touch and you lash out at Clinton for it.

I sometimes wonder what real Republicans are doing about the problems in their own party. I get the feeling they do nothing. Nothing is going to change for pissed off Republican because your party is not listening to you. There is the real problem…for all of America.
