Highlight:

This is why Hillary won't be the nominee [View all] pinebox Feb 2016 OP

That's exactly why the Hillary campaign is Swift Boating Sanders now. BillZBubb Feb 2016 #1

Precisely and what is sad pinebox Feb 2016 #4

Hillary views facts as a sign of weakness. Facts get in the way of her agenda. JRLeft Feb 2016 #15

The Cruz ad is pretty nasty senz Feb 2016 #24

Dear god I cant believe you are lumping Hillary in with Cruz Jackie Wilson Said Feb 2016 #51

She's a Republican but Cruz is destructive. JRLeft Feb 2016 #54

If you think she is a republican, you clearly dont know anything about this election. Jackie Wilson Said Feb 2016 #62

She's a Republican it shows you how far the party has moved to the right. JRLeft Feb 2016 #64

If you think that she's a Democrat RoccoR5955 Feb 2016 #66

In a way you are correct. The only qualifications needed to call ones self a Democrat is rhett o rick Feb 2016 #87

Cruz also acts and looks like he is out of his mind. He'll never make it. nt Enthusiast Feb 2016 #75

It's an act Cruz is really intelligent, but he had to pretend to be crazy to win as a tea party JRLeft Feb 2016 #80

The act is convincing. Enthusiast Feb 2016 #82

I don't agree with him politically, he's in this for the money and the power. JRLeft Feb 2016 #83

It is. Qutzupalotl Feb 2016 #92

Well, I visited your link and chervilant Feb 2016 #114

She can't raise her own numbers so she plans to drag his down to her level. Spitfire of ATJ Feb 2016 #44

Looks like it. If she can't have it maybe Donald or Cruz can. Enthusiast Feb 2016 #76

The Dems are well versed in operating as a minority party. Spitfire of ATJ Feb 2016 #81

They are employing the same failed strategy they used against Obama. Enthusiast Feb 2016 #74

And that's what the Rs plan to do to her WhaTHellsgoingonhere Feb 2016 #103

Bernie doesn't need to use it. chervilant Feb 2016 #116

Wrong side of the bed dpatbrown Feb 2016 #37

Emails and Benghazi ARE issues. 21st Century Poet Feb 2016 #67

Only to right wingers. n/t JTFrog Feb 2016 #98

And ask for Wall Street speech transcripts! Dustlawyer Feb 2016 #42

On that one you know that she'll continue to duck and dodge with LibDemAlways Feb 2016 #60

That's where Bernie's non-attack strategy suffers the most. Dustlawyer Feb 2016 #71

thanks to Matt Taibbi and Politico, we know what she said to Goldman Sachs grasswire Feb 2016 #106

Yes, but the more she refuses to show them, lob1 Feb 2016 #111
