Does anybody on this board want Hillary to be President?

Post by Pwns »

Will anyone actually vote for Hillary because of Hillary and not as a vote against the Republican candidate?

That's actually a great question...
I've taken to wasting my vote the last election - and - this one forthcoming
But I remember happily voting for Obama in the first go-round

I was absolutely convinced he was going to be a great president
Is there anybody on here who thinks Hillary will be a great president..?

:shock:
Seriously? :shock: A guy who's experience consisted of:
-was a "community organizer"
-8 years as a state legislator (where he had a penchant for voting "present").
-2 years in the Senate before he started campaigning for president.
The thinnest resume of all 44 presidents in US history, a complete neophyte in terms of executive experience. What in the world made you think he was going to be a "great" president. If you had said you expected him to be ok or decent, that would be one thing, but saying you expected him to be "great" (when we haven't had that many "great" presidents), is really astonishing. :suspicious:

No. I will say that for the first time I may vote for a fringe candidate from another party if Trump gets the Republican nomination. I absolutely will not vote for Trump. But I absolutely will not vote for Hillary either. I'll either have to find someone else to vote for or not vote.

Won't be trying to show anybody anything in that scenario. It would just be the first time in my lifetime that I could not in good conscience vote for either of the two major Party candidates.

Doesn't matter. If Trump is the Republican nominee Hillary will win regardless of how I vote.

At this point I don't know. I do think if you matched her up against Marco Rubio she could lose.

But before Trump got involved and screwed things up there was a really good chance of having the Republican candidate beat her. Heck, before Trump got involved polls were showing her losing a head to head popular vote match up to Rand Paul.

Trump just totally screwed things up for the Republicans. A gift from Heaven for the Democrats. You can look at the polls at http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls ... _race.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and see that Trump is one of the worst choices the Republicans could make if they want to win the General Election. Yet the Trump idiots out there continue to allow him to screw things up.

He's a buffoon who will, if nominated, get absolutely annihilated in a general election. What's going on now with potential Republican primary voters supporting him is one of the saddest, stupidest things I've ever seen. It's suicide.

Like I said, using those RCP poll averages you linked TODAY Rubio would beat Clinton.

You say Trump would get annihilated, but according to the RCP link you gave Clinton is only +1 over Trump in the Rasmussen and +2 in the CNN. It would either be a close Clinton win or a landslide, as the polls vary widely.

According to the RCP avg, Clinton vs Cruz today would be a tossup. Clinton versus Carson would be a tossup. Yes,that is what the polls show. Heck, Clinton is barely ahead in a matchup with the fat man.

As scandal plagued and unpopular as she is, she's going to have a hard time blowing out whoever the Republicans nominate..

The wheels of that political machine didn't work so well the last time they rolled it out in 2008. Hillary is clearly a very strong candidate, but she is far from invincible, as prior elections have shown us.

Truth be told, I couldn't really give a shit, as long as the next presidents name isn't Bush or Clinton.
I threw away my last two Presidential votes for Ron Paul and Gary Johnson. It really makes no difference for me in a Navy blue state. I'm really thinking of registering as a (D) again, just so my primary vote could maybe count.

I was riding the bus to work the day after Obama was elected. I've never seen so many smiling faces and happy people. I was hopeful for better times. 7 years later, the look of misery is back. And has been for a good 6 1/2 years.

John's more sensitive to public opinion than he likes to let on - same reason he goes to extraordinary lengths to emphasize the fact that he once took a statistics class. While he is an evangelical he is somewhat embarrassed about having that known in educated company. Since his wife is an employee of the republicans it doesn't happen much at home but here on line he'd just as soon avoid being the butt of the japing and general :laugh: that comes with being an evangelical christian.

Exactly, and that's why Hillary won't beat anyone "fairly quickly".

Obama was able to gin up the Donk lunatic fringe and get them to the polls with his youthful Manchurian charisma. The Hildabeast doesn't have that quality, not even a little bit. She's old, tired and worn out. Half of her own base doesn't like or trust her, and they're not going to waste their time by going out and voting for her.

I for one, will be voting in the Democratic Primary AGAINST Clinton.

Perhaps more Republicans should do the same. But I guess it's hardly effective, even in a blue state.
