22. I guess we now know what moderate Republicans felt like when their Party took a hard right turn

and they didn't have their seat belts on. They fell out of the car!

The thing that worked for Bill was that he was loaded with charisma. He could sell ice to Eskimos, Hillary has none!

It's all there for anyone to see what he did and the results of it. You rarely hear about his deregulation of radio/television, but I think it was one of his more damaging legacies. It opened up the non-stop propaganda machine that extended the life of this revolutionary overthrow of our government. It is what led to the rise of Fox News, Rush Limpballs, InsHannity, Tweety, and Chucky Toad to name but a few!

Whether or not Bernie makes it, he will lead us in this political revolution and continue to make it grow. Hillary will do her part by proving us right all along. That is of course if Bernie and the rest of us lose because we are in this race with him!
