It's about all the GOP can rely on, hate and rage.

How else will they get people to vote against their economic interests and for the "Corporate State" that the Kochs. ALEC, etc wish to create!

The worst right wing haters of Obama are men.

Their wives might not enjoy them attacking Hillary in a manner similar to how they've attacked Obama.

Hillary having gone through the repugs shenanigans once before .... looks like she has the steel to deal with them in their own language.

6. Very possible, but I also have to add how much they hate anything Clintonian to begin with.

They are unreasonable, plain and simple.

Though perhaps she has the ability to handle it. Hopefully she has enough of a support structure to do so.

I have had it with them and using every freedom that we have fought for to hurt us anew.

8. Oh yeah. Hillary has four things that piss them off

1) She's a Clinton
2) She's a woman
3) She's a Democrat
4) She's a Clinton

I'm not kidding. PBO gets their ire because he's a Democrat and he's black. That's just two things that piss them off. Hillary's got four! And yes Clinton is mentioned twice because the irrational behavior Republicans and Conservatives have towards the Clintons is that intense.

I can't imagine their hatred of Hillary getting any more intense than it already is. If she wins the nom, they will go bonkers. When she wins, they will either explode or get out the guns. I remember some repub saying we should impeach Bill again well after his term ended. They will impeach Hillary before she gets elected.

11. Now that they have practice I'll bet *any* Democrat will get the same hate treatment.

The warmed up with Clinton, found their nirvana with Obama.
Now that their hate is running on all cylinders I expect they will keep it going even if we get a Democratic white male president.
(Bernie Sanders could be that lucky recipient.)

Only if we elect a Republican president will they take their ass off the gas.

misogyny and race baiting are weapons of convenience.

Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry ... All white men they slandered, defamed and otherwise relentlessly destroyed.

The primary sin is being a democrat.

I am sure some will disagree, that's their right, but, for the most part, being a Dem is what the Rs are attacking most often.

Why Hillary beat Obama in KY, WVA, GA, and many of those states who admitted that they could never vote for 'a black'. And these were DEMOCRATS!!!
