Who is she running against?
Does she really think she has a chance???
in the general elections? does it matter? Even Palin would beat her
After the concussion she suffered that stops her from remembering Benghazi, maybe she actually believes she has a chance.
I'm not a fan of hers, but you can never underestimate the GOP ability to pick terrible candidates.
Cant argue with this
What's really sad is that is totally true.
I won't be voting for her but at this point she will Win
"Now that we had our first Black President, it's time for a woman! Yippeeee" Will be the battle cry
if i had a glued to my forehead i'd be elected just because i'm different
Take it up with Fox News. Their polls have Hillary beating each of the leading Republicans by double digits.
Hillary no longer liberal enough for Dems. But, the GOP has moved FAR FAR to the EXTREME right. Lol.
Hillary/Castro ticket? http://www.washingtonpost.com/politi...c1a_story.html
Repugs reachout to Latinos: KY jelly-brains McConnell wants to force a Senate vote on the House REPUG bill to kill all aid to immigrants, and block all such Executive actions on immigrant aid.
iow, let the diseased little ers starve, and rot in their own .
You are out of touch on so many levels...
Guess Boo just sees "brown" instead of all the different nationalities under that label. Who is to say the Americanized Mexicans really give a about the new invaders from Central America?
Palin is a pipe dream of the far-right fringe.
Hispanics voted (D) in 2012 by a wide margin (70% I think). Republicans have done little since then to win them over.
Oh, I agree. Certainly in Texas those voting roots go way back to the classic south texas patron system. My hope is that more and more hispanics will aspire to be like many that I do business with and realize that the D's basic premise isn't to reward individual merit and upward aspiration but rather to create a new nationwide patron system of dependence.
Just curious...
What would you guys list as voting hispanic issues?
Good schools?
Good Jobs?
public safety?
The opportunity (not the promise) of the american dream?
Pretty much like anyone else, right?
Where does uncontrolled borders and immigration really fit into the debate?
If Hillary can't beat the warmongering, big-government Jeebo that the GOP will inevitably install as their nominee, it will be one of the biggest embarrassments in the history of the Democratic Party
So ing true. They will get some idiot that will speak non stop about abortion and sexuals. Fortuneatly, the Dems took out one of the dim witted players in Rick Perry tonight.
It's actually some of that. I'll say at the top of the list are:
1) Immigration reform: I don't think they'll oppose closing down the border, but those that have papers (and vote), have family or friends that do not have papers and see their daily struggles. They also know those struggles well, as it's likely they went through them themselves in the past. They want a legal path so their close ones can work, drive and function in our society. Maybe some sort of worker visa with possibility to eventually acquire citizenship, or full blown amnesty. I don't know what the solution is, but this is a major issue, and ideas like 'self-deportation' are just mind-boggling insulting. They don't want to leave, they can do that anytime they want. They want to stay, legally.
2) The economy: They migrated here for a better future. They want jobs and opportunity like everyone else.
You nail those two, you get their votes. The rest largely doesn't matter. I mean, sure, nobody likes crime. But odds are they already lived in a much more violent environment than the worse you see around here.
What's the LOL about that?
If the left in this country has moved further left, then I guess it would appear (to them) that the the GOP has moved further right. But have they?
And the Right plays the relativity card.
Well done.
The reactions/solutions by republicans to the immigration issue are not helpful. They are turning off Hispanic voters, so whatever good ideas they have about other important issues fall on deaf ears.
