re: #533 Skip Intro

Having your opponents motivated by seething hatred is never a good thing, because, as we’ve seen, hatred is one hell of a motivator to get out and vote.

I’m not a big Joe Biden fan, but I just don’t see the Right being able to gin up the 120 proof hatred against him that they will against someone named Hillary Clinton.

The GOP base already includes those who will crawl over broken glass to vote against their enemies.

I do not believe for a minute that their intensity varies significantly from election to election any more.

If instead you are talking about otherwise liberal people who specifically hate Hillary Clinton, that would be a different story and could be an issue. I don’t see much evidence of that in the news.
