2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: The Why--Hillary in 2016 [View all]Always Randy
(1,085 posts)she is the ultimate chameleon-------if you watch what Bill Clinton did as President --he virtually stole the Republican agenda------they were trying to impeach him at the time and he won reelection by a landslide---------ok so he ticked off a lot of us----but he appointed Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the Supreme Court-----that would not have happened with a RW President ----------
I am not in favor of Hillary because of her policies ----it is only that I don't like to see a Republican in the White House------there are so many comments on DU ---that are from the heart ---and emotionally driven--------but it will be a long time before any progressive candidates get near the White House if they are knocking on a Republican's door----so I say win the seat and then work on the winner to make change----
this business of gridlock in the House will eventually bring our country down----------I think a Hillary run will make a lot of Republicans and uncommitted say ----it's ok to vote for a woman----it's ok to vote for a Democrat-----idealism doesn't win issues -----compromise does ----and a lot more of it would be going on if the bigots were not in the way right now-------
We are paving the way for an Elizabeth Warren----or someone super like her
