Trump's comments on the Iraq War just made Clinton a loser in a Clinton-Trump match-up.

She will be getting blasted for her disgusting support for the war constantly and Trump will be getting votes from a lot of people sick of Neo-Con bullshit.

will change their minds because, even though he didn't oppose the war in 2002 and 2003, he now calls out GWB?

Seriously?

For many reasons- The Iraq War Vote being just one. She's a perfect embodiment of the system he's successfully railing against. Every word from her feels poll tested while he seems to have no filter whatsoever and people are liking that about him. I still think (and hope) we would win. But she feeds into his strengths. And we can't afford to have this racist, sexist, fascist with delusions of grandeur win the White House. He's truly dangerous. And don't tell me it couldn't happen. I watched my liberal California elect The Governator.

Bernie is the only one who is trump proof. . . and all he has to do is keep being "him"- boring, focused on issues, long history of integrity and judgement, no self-made "scandals"

Of the republican candidates, I think Trump would be the most likely to defeat Hillary. I'm not concerned about Rubio; he would be similar to her first opponent in the Senate race, Little Ricky.

She'd be a horrible candidate. She'd be better off running as a Repub.

No way can Hillary beat Trump, when he blasts her on her Iraq War vote, her support for bad trade deals, her Wall Street funding, her cozy relationship with the Saudis (he's called them 'fat cows' and said we shouldn't defend them), and then there is this:




Who will people vote for, the billionaire, or the billionaire's toadie who showed up at his wedding on command?

As Carlin said, they are all in a club, and we're not part of it. Neither is Bernie, even after all his years in DC.

If Dems want to WIN, and I do, we'll nominate Bernie Sanders
