Classic socal

Another sign of hope for you rethugs and teabaggers with this weeks update. Seems some crazies in Colorado think Rand Paul would do a better job than Mrs. Clinton. But if any of you rethugs/teabaggers think Paul could win in a general election against Mrs. Clinton, think again, cause it ain’t gonna happen.

Florida’s Quinnipiac Poll, Virginia’s Roanoke College Poll, Colorado’s Quinnipiac Poll, Iowa’s NBC/Marist Poll and New Hampshire’s NBC/Marist Poll

The rest of the Florida Survey USA poll results here.

She annoyed the zionist lobby recently. I reckon she is not going to run. She wouldn't have done this otherwise.

Why would she run? Ya remember Kerry and the Swiftboat? Hillary would be "Bengazied" by the same folks.

I predict a conservative Latino or east Indian, I think a south Korean will step up as they are some the best educated people on the planet these days.

nothing has changed from when people first started talking about her running in 2016:

if she chooses to enter the race, she wins.

normally you'd have to be crazy to make a prediction about an election more than two years in advance, but her demographic edge is so overwhelming that it's a done deal.

the only group she won't win is white males and even that won't be a blowout. she'll win every other major demographic group without breaking a sweat.

it also helps that the GOP doesn't have anyone credible on their bench to put up against her. personally, i hope it's romney because i'd enjoy watching him lose again.

Have to agree with Ray. If she runs, she wins. I see nothing that can stop her, other than a major medical issue.

it seems that she will run

Hillary Clinton: 'Failure' to Help Syrian Rebels Led to the Rise of ISIS - The Atlantic

Clinton responded to this idea with great enthusiasm: “That’s how I feel! Maybe this is old-fashioned.” And then she seemed to signal that, yes, indeed, she’s planning to run for president. “Okay, I feel that this might be an old-fashioned idea, but I’m about to find out, in more ways than one.”

I don't think Hillary will run.

She's been in politics up to her ears for decades, knows the ins and outs, and knows just how much work is involved. Not only in campaigning but also in running the country. Couple in her age, her grandchild, why would she sign up for a 24/7 type job? I don't think her ego will drive her to the oval office.

During the past two weeks two polls
were reported at RCP. All Clinton.

One Alaska poll
wasn’t.

Little bit about the Alaska poll. Clinton doesn’t do well in this red state, which hasn’t voted Dem since 1964 (Johnson).

Pual 50 & Clinton 36
Huckabee 47 & Clinton 39
Bush 47 & Clinton 38
Christie 45 & Clinton 34
Palin 40 & Clinton 46

Palin finishes 6th when it comes to who Republican voters want to be the 2016 Presidential candidate in her home state. Ted Cruz leads with 16%, followed by Rand Paul at 15%, Mike Huckabee at 14%, Jeb Bush and Chris Christie at 12%, Palin at 11%, Scott Walker at 7%, Paul Ryan at 6%, and Marco Rubio at 5%.

Now the fun part about the poll,……..

Alaskans remain down on Palin

PPP's newest Alaska poll finds that voters in the state continue to hold a very dim view of Sarah Palin and any aspirations she might have about running for President in 2016. Only 36% of voters in the state have a favorable opinion of Palin to 55% who view her negatively. Just 20% would like to see her make a bid for the White House, compared to 74% who think she should sit it out. There's actually almost as many Democrats- 17%- who want Palin to run as there are Republicans- 23%- suggesting there are as many Alaskans who want to see her run for the entertainment value as because they actually want her to be President.

I know this isn’t the political humor thread but you should view this video below.

At the beginning of the video Tina Fey is spoofing Sarah Palin, which is entertaining (if you’re not a rethug or teabagger). In the second part of the video it shows the real interview (that Ms. Fey was parodying) with the ½ term grifter Palin. Scary.

And there some out there that still admire and support this idiot Palin.

Disagree. Same thing was thought by many when Obama whooped her ass. I personally wouldn't vote for her unless some idiot like Sarah Palin was her competition.

shocking.....a 50+ white guy who voted for GWB isn't likely to vote for HRC.



anyway....even amongst republicans it's an open secret that women are completely turned off by the GOP:

A detailed report commissioned by two major Republican groups — including one backed by Karl Rove — paints a dismal picture for Republicans, concluding female voters view the party as “intolerant,” “lacking in compassion” and “stuck in the past.”

Women are “barely receptive” to Republicans’ policies, and the party does “especially poorly” with women in the Northeast and Midwest, according to an internal Crossroads GPS and American Action Network report obtained by POLITICO. It was presented to a small number of senior aides this month on Capitol Hill, according to multiple sources involved.

women from every imaginable demographic group are going to vote for HRC because of who she is, what she's done and what she represents. if she runs in 2016 republicans don't have a chance.

^ Bullshit ... And now you're using "Turd Blossom" (Rove) to back your assertion ...

No question- she's the obvious republican candidate.

Clintons biggest backers

Citigroup Inc $782,327 $774,327 $8,000
Goldman Sachs $711,490 $701,490 $10,000
JPMorgan Chase & Co $645,994 $638,494 $7,500

All of them are heavily invested and owners of various companies involved in dirty energy, and knowing a few owned by Goldman Sachs, they are not interested at all in "clean energy". They are interest in Filthy Lucre.

Just another big business shill and the Brand is being built up for her already so all the nodding donkeys can get a semi on thinking about how pious they will feel when she is handed the presidency.

You have no choice - it has been decided for you. Look forward to 8 more years of wars, increasing debt, and fear.

Killjoy!

No I haven't. She is standing infront of a "clean energy" poster and I point out that her backers are up to their eyes in dirty energy. If you do not know this, well now you do.

The GOP candidates mostly have the same bunch funding them. Most of the Koch types backers will have massive funding from the bankers bank rolling shillery.

They are all the same - same owners telling them what to do.

Look at Cruz’s number. 16 points behind Mrs. Clinton, in Michigan. For the life of me I can’t figure out why most responsible American’s dislike this clown. Oh wait.

The man least likely
Public land,.our parks? For sale? Really?

Why is it that you always choose the man least likely to be on the republican ticket for your comparisons?

I haven't seen the Women for Hillary polling but assume she has the "women vote."

Worth noting is that Romney got killed on the Woman's vote that went to Obama by a huge margin in 2012.
