Maybe it's just me, but...

Every time I see a thread or hear a breathless news story excited about the next FRESH NEW AND DIFFERENT LEADER for the Democratic Party I want to punch something.

You know why.

Anyone else?

Or do we have to wait a few more centuries, or wait for the GOP to find its next Phylliss Schlafly or Ann Coulter or Michele Bachman...?

List all the qualities they want in a candidate, and it is either a Dem Trump, or someone with a long history of relevant experience. Hmmm, who might have had that experience?

i MET hillary. It was during the welfare reform of her husbands administration. Dem since i was indoctrinated by my parents (weren't we all?) NOW however I am mature and able to keep the facts straight. I have my fingers crossed that her machine like qualities do not translate to the very real EW.

HRC showed herself to a group of women who were fighting for their lives and the life their children would have. She failed. But the problem was, no one would talk about it. If any one of us tried to argue it, we were called names because we did not speak of HRC as if she was the answer.

no person can be elevated so high that their shortcomings are ignored.

imo.
