They don't even care about their jobs.... daleanime May 2015 #65

But the closer it is, the easier it is to steal. calimary May 2015 #4

We must be vigilant. hrmjustin May 2015 #8

totally agree. I have often wondered why they didn't steal it in 2008 and 2012. why Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #55

That well may be true. Paka May 2015 #75

Hope you are right DCB What a shame it would be to let this once in a lifetime event Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #14

Once in a lifetime? How so? Will there be no more elections, and I've not heard the news? n/t cherokeeprogressive May 2015 #24

cute. meant first one - is once in a lifetime. Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #58

She is indeed the most qualified candidate ever for POTUS. DCBob May 2015 #40

Hmmm...what if its Hillary v Fiorina? Thats the possible match-up that would have me most worried... Joe the Revelator May 2015 #16

There is no way in hell Fiorino could win, is there? I think the person I fear most Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #22

The RW media (Drudge et al) is starting to slowly pump Fiorino. Joe the Revelator May 2015 #29

Yes but how could anyone compare the two resumes and say "Damn...CF is so Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #47

Maybe but she's cold and all business.. I dont think she connects with the average Joette. DCBob May 2015 #26

Alot of people would say the same thing about Hillary.nt Joe the Revelator May 2015 #31

If you have ever heard Fiorina speak you would know what I mean. DCBob May 2015 #33

I actually have not caught her speaking yet, just read a lot about her. Maybe thats why... Joe the Revelator May 2015 #38

She speaks well.. no doubt about that but seems she cant shake sounding like a CEO. DCBob May 2015 #51

Not a chance she gets the nomination, much less wins the general. nt onehandle May 2015 #44

Why not? Serious question. From what I've READ she seems interesting if i was on that side of Joe the Revelator May 2015 #49

Bad personality. Laid off 30,000 people. Ruined a classic American company. onehandle May 2015 #50

What kind of balls she must have, huh. To think, I ruined a company and hell, I think Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #72

Fiorina will not be the republican nominee Scootaloo May 2015 #84

it didn't work out that way in 2008. Scootaloo May 2015 #82

Well.. there was the Obama factor in 2008. DCBob May 2015 #86

Describe for me the "Obama Factor." Scootaloo May 2015 #87

Where you living under a rock back then?? DCBob May 2015 #89

No, I wanted a description of what you were talking about Scootaloo May 2015 #90

The fact is she almost won despite a candidate of a lifetime opponent. DCBob May 2015 #92

Two things... Scootaloo May 2015 #97

If not for the caucus states she would have won. DCBob May 2015 #98

The heart wants what it wants...and Hillary has always been polarizing within the party... Joe the Revelator May 2015 #12

If she's polarizing within my party one pole is a hell of a lot bigger than the other DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #21

wow. 85%? wonder what it is here? 15%? nt Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #23

Probably less...DU is not a proxy for the Democratic party... DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #28

I'm waiting for the first Bernie vs these guys polls. Then you will see. stevenleser May 2015 #15

We already have an inkling... DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #25

Yep, that is about the amount I expected. He does 25 points or so worse than she does against stevenleser May 2015 #27

CA hasn't been in play since 1988./NT DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #32

Right, not since St. Ronnie who was a prior governor there. stevenleser May 2015 #34

Bush Pere carried it in 88 but if I remember correctly it was reasonably close. DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #39

I dunno, I think O'Malley might present a challenge. zappaman May 2015 #45

Biden is Plan B but I seriously doubt HRC implodes. DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #46

I have always thought embracing your predecessor is the path of least resistance - unless Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #53

The challenge is it is very rare and hard for one party to hold the White House three terms... DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #56

what about when you factor in the other party holding the house and senate? Although Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #62

I don't know how you factor that in. DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #64

yes, and she mentioned that the other day ..." I know what the demands Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #68

But...there's probably less than zero chance HRC won't win our nomination. And Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #36

For many Bernie folks here, what you just said is offensive. Of course its true, but as you said stevenleser May 2015 #42

I meant no offense at all. I have been there before - supported someone Laura PourMeADrink May 2015 #57

Barack Obama was sui generis. We made history. DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #48
