And I hear that she maybe didn't pay a tip once, also too.

It allowed for the worst of interpretations.
The risk/rewaerd ratio was very bad! Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been.

They made crap up about her (and just about every other elected Democrat).
They attack her because she's powerful, persuasive, and appealing. Going away is what the GOP wants her to do. Why should she listen to them? She's smart to keep doing what she's doing to help the party. MM isn't the audience she's trying to reach. Not you nor me, either. She's working to make women more powerful in politics. She's very good at it. Similarly for the Obamas. They're not going to go away, and they shouldn't. My $0.02. Cheers, Scott. |

She's good at making women in politics powerful? How? Through wedlock?
Look, the point isn't whether or not most of the crap said about her was true or not. I've long ago concurred that Republicans are pathological liars and virtually all, if not entirely all, of the criticisms they made of her were a pack of lies and distortions. We've no argument on that score. The point is that it *worked* with far too many stupid Americans (who are legion, btw). On the West coast and in the NE coast it doesn't hurt to be associated with her (in fact, it probably helps). But in the other 40 states she is largely reviled. It doesn't matter if that revulsion is justified or not, she hurts candidates in virtually all of those 40 states by supporting them. If we learned nothing else from the 2016 election, we should at least recognize that the ideas of Third Way New Democrats were rejected in the most forceful and destructive manner imaginable and no longer have any place in our politics. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again. |
