As was Regan and nobody said anything about it. Well, he did during a debate with Ducaucus stating "I will not hold your young age against you".

It was against Mondale, not Dukakis, and Mondale pretty much lost the election right there in that debate. The exact quote was ""I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent's youth and inexperience". Even Mondale had to laugh.

The only way she won't run is if someone drives a wooden stake through her heart. Even if she's in prison she'll run. :|

"Yea, I just like to keep in touch with old friends". (not a direct quote). So, this Sid B. guy gathered all of this intelligence while working for the Clinton Foundation? While being PAID by the foundation? He didn't gather all of this himself. Were the people gathering the info being paid by the foundation?

Below are the emails from Sid to Hillary. Not much warm and fuzzy friendship going on. :roll:

Democrats will support Hillary regardless of any of these issues, not because they love her but because she's pretty much the only player in the game. They would rather deal with the Hillary they don't care for but who they think can win than have a Republican in the White House, especially with a Republican Congress. Many Democrats like what Bernie Sanders stands for but don't believe he could possibly win the presidency (can you say McGovern redux?) that's why so many still want Elizabeth Warren to run. O'Malley and Chaffee are, at least at this point, non-starters as well. Is there anyone else out there that could give Hillary real competition in the primaries? It's a long way from now until the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary, but right now, even with the slow drip of stuff coming out about Hillary, she's still the only one viewed as having a chance against the Republicans.

The convention is over a year away. A lot can happen in a year.

A little googling yielded this:

Top governors, ranked by job approval ratings.

For Democrats, Mike Beebe of Arkansas is #1.

Guesses on #2?















Peter Shumlin, Vermont.

Charlie Baker is up around 70% approval rating in Massachusetts which is way better than Shumlin. A moderate Republican in a Democrat-dominated state who has a Democrat chief of staff and half of his cabinet Democrats. 5.15% state income tax. Prop 2 1/2 limiting property taxes. Line item veto over the worst of the Democratic legislature pork barrel spending. Other than New Hampshire, Massachusetts is now the low tax state in the Northeast and the economy inside the 495 belt where all the people live is booming. Governing from the center works at the state level. Too bad a centrist can't ever get a Presidential nomination.

More on the Clinton's foundation and its money raising activities. Unfortunately, the Democrat primary voters won't care, nor will most Democrats come November 2016.

Some Dems will care. Many of the Independents will care. Can a majority of Independents and the Republicans beat all of the Dems plus some women who will vote for 1st woman? The electoral college has not been kind to the Republicans of late.
