status quo

So would you rather a retreat into conservatism just because obama isnt 100% liberal enough??? The lessons from 2000 will never be gone in my mind when ultra liberals betrayed gore and got bush two terms.

And i'm a dude, and im voting for her. i supported obama in 2008, way before he even announced his candidacy, when he was just gossip on a few blogs i've read.

hold up against a republican

What are you smoking???

Clinton, who has been touted as a possible presidential candidate in 2016, topped a group including Vice President Joseph Biden, House Speaker John Boehner, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, and Clinton successor Secretary of State John Kerry.

Elections are won by winning states not ideological appeal. And the key to winning states are appeal and only hillary will have that in 2016. Everybody else will be DOA.
