(15,435 posts)saying. I want to come back to this thread a little later because I have more to say and read more posts. I'm one who is very unhappy about how we seem to be anointing Hillary much too quickly. It's complicated, but most of all I really wish there was someone else we as Democrats could find as a strong opposition to her candidacy. Watching how she's handling her books tour brings back memories as to why I was never one of her supporters back in '08.
At the same time anyone I want to run now really won't get elected. That is unless Democrats and mostly too many "sheeple" start really paying attention to how we are being "sold" a candidate wrapped in shiny paper with lots of bows on top. Sometimes what's in the box isn't what we ordered!
