Why does everyone assume Biden won't get the nomination?
Congrats to Hillary for winning the Presidency....and her vice president Mic e Obama
Clinton / Obama 2016
Why does everyone assume Biden won't get the nomination?
Because the powers that control the Democratic party (Wall Street mainly) are't gonna pick anyone else over the opportunity to put another Clinton in office. Corporate America would by no means by upset about a Delaware politician winning, but they'd prefer a Clinton.
I think Biden might be more electable though. Hillary doesn't have that nice con-man sweet-talking personality that got Bill elected to two terms. She seems like a cuntier version of Gore. American voters want people who can convincingly lie in a nice warm voice with good hair and a good smile who don't sound like robots. Biden seems to have much more of that friendly neighborhood criminal good guy vibe going on.
I guess having Benghazi helps Clinton though, since the right wing media really turns off non-teabagger voters.
Looks like it's sure Hillary's to lose at this point, but with over 2 years to go I could still imagine a dark-horse from either party emerging...
Biden is one of a fundraiser. Does he want to run though?
Biden knows he can't challenge the Clinton's....in fact he got clobbered by Obama in 2008...Obama then used him to solidify the old white man vote![]()
This is Hillary's to lose....I'm happy for Hillary she'll win 2 terms then the mayor of San Antonio will win 2 terms after her...
the order will have been:
A Black man
A White woman
A Mexican man
no room for rednecks
Repugs only chance for the WH is gerrymandering, plus rigging the red-state electoral vote to screwey proportional rather than winner-take-all, plus widespread voter suppression (already done in red states, hours after the Repug SCOTUS gutted VRA).
Hillary would win women by a huge margin, blacks, Latinos.
^ what's the odds of this actually happening? and what are the projections for us winning the house back?
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...ever-yes-ever/Clinton stands at an eye-popping 73 percent in a hypothetical 2016 primary race with Biden, the sitting vice president, who is the only other candidate in double digits at 12 percent. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who has signed a letter along with a handful of other Democratic senators urging Clinton to run, is at 8 percent. And that's it.
That lead is almost three times as large as the one Clinton enjoyed in Post-ABC polling in December 2006, the first time we asked the 2008 Democratic presidential primary ballot question. At that time, Clinton took 39 percent to 17 percent for then Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, 12 percent for 2004 vice presidential nominee John Edwards and 10 percent for former Vice President Al Gore. Speaking of Gore, he is the closest thing to a Clinton-sized frontrunner dating all the way back to early polling on the 1984 presidential race. In a March 1999 poll, in advance of the 2000 presidential race, Gore took 58 percent to 21 percent for former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley, a 37-point bulge
ing robot Gore getting the nomination over the much more qualified Bradley.![]()
Looks like ill be writing in Hitler again.
crass tribalism.
we've been tabloidized; media outlets openly serve political brands.
I'm a Goebbels man myself.
Elizabeth Warren as the dark horse?
Too good a candidate to ever get elected in our system.
When I read this, I was thinking more on the lines of a liberal version of Ann Coulter.
Says the Goebbels man...
That would be Rachel Maddow.
was willing to sacrifice his children.
