Salon mag Blasts Hillary

Salon - a hardcore liberal magazine posted an article March 9. It's stunning how hard they hit Hillary.



Salon -

"It should be over for Hillary: Party elites and MSNBC can’t prop her up after Bernie’s Michigan miracle"



You wouldn’t know it from watching TV last night or reading the national papers this morning but Bernie Sanders’ Michigan win ranks among the greatest upsets in presidential primary history.



Should he win the nomination it will be go down as the biggest upset of any kind in American political history.



And ......



It’s always too little, too late. Voters sense she’s just moving pawns on a chess board in part because she can never explain her change of heart and often doesn’t even try. She switched horses on global trade in a blog post, on the Keystone pipeline at a grammar school event. In a recent debate she left fracking to the GOP governors who covered themselves in glory on Obamacare, as if it were a states’ rights issue. With her Super PAC (and hers and Bill’s breathtaking haul of $153 million in mostly corporate speaking fees), she is the living avatar of pay to play politics. She shouldn’t be the Democratic nominee for president because she doesn’t even know it’s wrong.



She remains woefully out of touch with the public mood in other ways. This week she began telling voters she and Bernie were pals and that it was time to wrap up their little primary so she could focus on the Republicans. As anyone outside her tone deaf campaign could have told her, she came off as entitled, presumptuous and condescending. The voters aren’t done deciding yet. When they are, they’ll let the candidates know. When party and press elites parroted her line, it had the same effect on Democrats as Mitt’s anti-Trump speech had on Republicans.

Thanks for posting this Dwag. Hillary clinton is the worst candidate in this campaign season. Sanders is a socialist and socialism, no matter how good it sounds, is very destructive. Both of those 2 will nominate supreme court judges that will have more negatives than positives and will work for little or nothing in the Constitution. I don't believe any of the Republican candidates will nominate anyone that doesn't have more positives than negatives. Their nominees may not be as good as we need but they won't be as bad as the 2 Democrat's would bring in.

Just remember, Hillary Clinton has the worst negatives of any candidate ever to run for president. Well, the worst as long as you ignore Donald Trump's negatives which are even worse than hers.

And what has Trump done that is as negative as leaking 1000s of classified documents to any country wanting to get their hands on them? Or failing to lead during a Benghazi situation???



I guess if you ignore these items and many more like them that Hillary could be considered a decent choice...?

Trump is America's answer to Kim Jong. Dangerous, ignorant, angry, self-absorbed, loves to talk big and pick fights. They're basically the same guy.

Nice one---point out that Trump has never done anything he's never been in a position to actually do. :roll:



Here's a breakdown of Trump's demonstrably false statements, misrepresentations, and outright lies, all from the past week:

How do you get past that and trust anything he has said?



This is all from a guy whose primary attack against Ted Cruz is that Cruz can't be trusted (because Cruz supporters interpreted an imprecise CNN tweet as stating Ben Carson was dropping out after Iowa--which is ironic given Trump's blatantly lying the past few days about Kasich's status in the race in Pennsylvania and beyond). Trump's "liar-liar-pants-on-fire" attacks on Cruz at this point are like Hitler calling George Zimmerman a murderer.



The aggregate of Trump's lies are far worse that Clinton's hit-and-miss relationship with the truth before she was handed public office. Each is morally bankrupt. Clinton has just had the opportunity to show that at the highest levels of government, but there's nothing that makes me think Trump will be any better when he has access to classified information or is responsible for the safety of Americans abroad.

Adolph did that? My-oh my. I didn't know Adolph has so much bottled up anger. Perhaps he can get help - before it's too late.

I agree and don't trust the snake oil salesman. But there's the crux, Hillary has had the opportunity to prove she doesn't deserve any trust. Trump, he's blabbed plenty, and likely would end up abusing the trust provided to a high ranking official in the US government, but he hasn't actually done it yet. If given the choice right now, I'll take the liar who is full of hot air over the liar who has actually done harm to the US.



Let me repeat my official stance on trump - he's a huge baffoon. Unfit for office. But so are HRC and BS.

No, the point is, Hillary is an awful candidate who should be beatable. But not if you run a WORSE candidate.



There have been 51 polls with a potential Hillary vs Trump matchup. Hillary has won 43 of them. They were tied in two of them. She has won the last five polls, and the closes margin has been 5 points. She has won 9 of the last 10 and 9 of the 11 polls since January.



Trump is going to have a very difficult time beating Hillary.
