HildyBeast will win if the GOP doesn't get its head out of its ass and field a decent candidate.[/[/COLOR][/COLOR]QUOTE]
who would that be?
Beats the hell outta me, 'cause none come to mind right off the bat.
Then again, I'm not paid to pick 'em.
But thats the problem, you make a statement like the one highlighted in red, rather than make a sensible statement like "I will vote against hillary no matter who the GOP runs"
Do you see the difference?
But I did not say that I will vote against Hillary, no matter who the GOP runs.
I was not even thinking in such terms.
You are putting words into my mouth which do not belong there.
See the difference?
Yes, of course I do. I am just trying to point out that attitudes such as yours is why we have two terms of obama. "romney isn't conservative enough so I'm not voting" "I am voting third party" People who thought that way elected obama. If you want Hillary as president continue that line of thinking.
You have completely mis-read me on this (
not that it matters much in the larger scheme of things).
My original statement was...
HildyBeast will win if the GOP doesn't get its head out of its ass and field a decent candidate.
...and nowhere in there, can one glean such an attitude, nor even a hint of one.
I said '
decent candidate'.
Meaning, someone who wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth... a Man (or Woman) of the People... who is neither a doddering and ancient wreck nor someone who holds 47% of his fellow countrymen in contempt nor who is a token this-or-that... someone who has experience in governing and sufficient charisma and force of personality to encourage bipartisanship and who has a vision for the Nation's future that he/she successfully imparts to and excites the Nation with... or as close to such an ideal as may prove practicable.
Meaning, someone who inspires sufficient confidence in his/her leadership abilities that constituents are naturally drawn to vote for, without working overly-hard at it - someone for whom the vote comes naturally.
A 'decent' (
respectable, experienced, inspiring, practical yet vision-laden) candidate.
The GOP (and, unless I'm mistaken here, you, as well) make the mistake of blaming the American Voting Public for electing Obumble.
The truth is, you (the GOP, anyway) have failed to field a 'decent candidate' for whom the vote comes naturally.
Do not blame the Common Man for your failures, else, resign yourselves to yet another defeat.
There is still time to (1) wake up and (2) acknowledge your shortcomings in fielding candidates and (3) fix the problem, before both the mid-terms in 2014 and the next general in 2016.
The question is: Do you (the GOP, anyway) have the brains and self-scrutiny and honesty-with-one's-selves to successfully complete such a necessary sequence, in order to stand a good chance of winning in 2016?
Based on past performance, I'm not so sure, although I'd love to be surprised, in that context.
