states in the south where it does us absolutely no good. It is all about electoral votes and most of the south is
irrelevant to the general election. Hillary is being punished for Bill's record that has devastated the auto and steel industry
and another thing is her stand on guns. I am looking for our best chance of beating Trump or Cruz. We have been
fed this bs for all these years that it would be a cakewalk for her but we are dealing with Trump now. When she faces
Trump he will just come right out and talk about Bill's blow job, NAFTA, TPP and Benghazi, he will rip her apart. I don't
think Sanders has much chance either but Trump can't pin any lies on him or any of Bill Clinton's record. Damn I wish we had someone else to chose from. As of now it looks like Trump or heaven help us Cruz will be the next President.
