>> In fact, Bill Clinton remains one of the most loved presidents of our time. Only by the ignorant. >> Hillary Clinton can easily get elected despite Whitewater She may get elected but it isn't going to be "easily". >> Due to basic demographics, the Republicans have virtually no chance in the next election. That speaks more to the Kool-aid drinking of Democrats than it does anything else. Ultimately, the Dems are going to be body slammed by the failed social programs (SS, MC, MA, Obamacare). >> The science denial, race hatred, anti-environmentalist views That's silly. I'm not going to argue science with you because I've read enough of your posts to recognize you are illiterate on the subject. As to the election I'm not sure but right now the Democrats look to be in pretty serious trouble. It is way too early to start predicting election outcomes.

Well, that shows that liberals not only don't value honesty in their candidates, they like dishonesty.

Women ALONE would be able to defeat the (R)'s. How can they possibly believe that they can beat the first woman candidate in history? Add in a completely dismissed Hispanic population, getting NO black votes, and it's flat IMPOSSIBLE. Even if they get EVERY white male vote, which they won't. Hillary may win by the biggest landslide we've ever seen...

Zax, Bill Clinton won an election in 1992 with large deficits in the honesty department…. Four years later, when Clinton was seeking reelection, he was underwater on the ABC/Post honesty question… In fact, Bill Clinton remains one of the most loved presidents of our time. ... So to answer your question, yes, Hillary Clinton can easily get elected despite Whitewater... err Benghazi, or whatever dead end bullsh*t the right wing is wasting millions on bogus, dragged out investigations in order to try to raise Clinton's negatives at the moment. Keep believing that, Zax. In the meantime, an independent socialist from Vermont, who will turn out to be older than McCain was when he ran for president, is denting Hillary's armor of inevitability. You already see Hillary responding by basically acting like a socialist herself. (Which of course no one believes.) All this is because people are tired of the Clintons. She could have survived Benghazi, but the personal e-mail server just proves that the fumes of corruption and dishonesty always seems to emanate from the direction of the Clintons. They are the very definition of "politics as usual," and people hate that. It's this very distaste that allowed a freshman senator from Illinois, who brought nothing but his skills at giving speeches, to overcome the Clinton political machine and win the nomination in 2008. Heck, it's even this very distaste that allowed George W. Bush to win a contest that should have been a walk in the park for Al Gore in 2000. "He was selected, not elected" is an excuse that would never have been needed by a guy who won his home state of Tennessee. Hillary may still end up winning the Democratic nomination, but at what cost to her and to the political landscape? If she gets nominated because people see her as a fighter and not as a corrupt powermonger, what will that say about the already low standard of politics these days? Tenchusatsu
