boyst Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Bernie has a brain and though his message resonates with the masses, Bernie's beliefs are sincere. Trump is a braindead charlatan with no soul. The left will have its Trump moment someday, just not this year. ok if i believe all of this, i have to ask what hillary clinton is? cankles in a pant suit?

Observer Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) ok if i believe all of this, i have to ask what hillary clinton is? cankles in a pant suit? If the political machine is a computer, Hillary is Skynet. Calculating, bought and sold, hawkish...if there's a heart in there, good luck finding it.

Dorkington Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Didn't know where else to put this, so I'll put it here... with Obama at 51% approval, I wanted to see how it compares at this point in his presidency to his three two-term predecessors. Kind of interesting the path each takes. Sorry the colors are horrible, Gallup doesn't allow for options there :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama is in his last descent. He will not be doing anything and play it safe and simple. He stopped prodding the opposition so much, and even his SCoTUS nominee was safe. And lastly. People like him now more knowing who could be next. And likely who will be next. Hillary, though, will be one and done thankfully and someone like Scott Walker will come in and right a lot of wrongs and get credit for all that was fixed. Here is to 2024!

boyst Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 it's true. on the simple principle that things can only go good, great or better for so long and that people eventually become discontent with all things. they will become discontent with the democratic party and a lot will change in 5 years; the republican leanings will be more left. why might you disagree?

boyst Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Scott Walker been seen largely as a failure? by whom? the media are not his biggest fans but he has seemingly done well enough in wisconsin. he will more than likely go the route of bobby jindal, though. they always do.

DC Tom Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't Scott Walker been seen largely as a failure? He's seen as a failure largely by people who predicted he'd be a failure before he even took office. Likewise, seen as a success by people who supported him. Good luck finding an honest appraisal.

DC Tom Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Fair enough haha I actually did look. Everything I found was strictly partisan. The dumbest opinion I found was from Krugman, who accused Walker of being a failure for being dogmatic and doctrinaire...which was clearly code for "disagreeing with my dogma and doctrine," phrased as though Krugman is at all open-minded.

I was disagreeing that Hillary will be one and done. Your logic is sound if the system is actually working as intended but it's not. It's been broken by the unchecked money in the system. I don't see her losing a re-election, especially against an imploded GOP, but I'm pretty cynical these days so what do I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
