What??? The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2015 #1

Yep SwampG8r Nov 2015 #2

Can you provide the quote please? nt Cali_Democrat Nov 2015 #4

If I.so will you accept it or will you make up a reason to excuse it? SwampG8r Nov 2015 #7

It's on reply 8 SwampG8r Nov 2015 #10

If the quote in post #8 is what you're referring to.... Cali_Democrat Nov 2015 #13

She didn't say she could think k of a.couple.of Republicans she could run with? SwampG8r Nov 2015 #14

She probably believes saying this will get her Republican votes AgingAmerican Nov 2015 #126

She clearly stated that she could consider a Republican just not one who is currently running. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #50

Did it occur to you that she probably couldn't think sufrommich Nov 2015 #52

Except that she said that she could. Can you? Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #57

What should she have said when faced with a sufrommich Nov 2015 #58

I'd answer, there is no national crisis that a Democratic ticket cannot address. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #60

A simple "Fuck the national crisis Rachel, that crisis was caused by the fucking republicans. Autumn Nov 2015 #70

Well wow... malokvale77 Nov 2015 #95

Reply8 SwampG8r Nov 2015 #11

Well, you can add that to the growing list of deal-breakers. The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2015 #5

Except for that pesky on the record fact that she COULD consider a Republican. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #59

Yeah, I guess. The Velveteen Ocelot Nov 2015 #62

Exactly. So, like the OP, I am curious. Which republican would Hillary choose to Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #64

How will they explain... malokvale77 Nov 2015 #97

I am sure they have breakfast together on occasion. nt artislife Nov 2015 #3

Probably Sunday mornings SwampG8r Nov 2015 #48

She said that suggesting names would destroy their campaigns. Agnosticsherbet Nov 2015 #6

The truth, the op is not correct, we are not FOX listeners. Thinkingabout Nov 2015 #18

I am correct SwampG8r Nov 2015 #22

Not in this life, read post #8 again. Thinkingabout Nov 2015 #25

Read it and re-read it. Hillary would consider a Republican just not any of those Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #66

Lincoln is not currently running Buzz cook Nov 2015 #114

i'd say.. any Democrat is better than a Republican to step up to national crisis. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #120

But that doesn't answer the question. Buzz cook Nov 2015 #139

The truth, the OP is correct, we are not stupid. malokvale77 Nov 2015 #98

The question asked: sufrommich Nov 2015 #8

Alternate response: no one. Kip Humphrey Nov 2015 #26

There are Republicans I could pick SwampG8r Nov 2015 #28

This may be the dumbest faux outrage attempt sufrommich Nov 2015 #33

I knew when I heard it 72DejaVu Nov 2015 #40

Yes,it's getting very predictable. nt sufrommich Nov 2015 #41

Not twist the word you are looking for is repeat SwampG8r Nov 2015 #45

For the past 6+ years, Republican politicians have proven beyond doubt that they do not do unity. merrily Nov 2015 #107

She was a spoiled sport. She azmom Nov 2015 #9

She did not, someone did not tell the truth. Thinkingabout Nov 2015 #21

Who claimed she named names? SwampG8r Nov 2015 #32

Teddy Roosevelt JaneyVee Nov 2015 #12

When Hillary digs him up. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #37

That was the dumbest question I've heard moobu2 Nov 2015 #16

And a dumb answer too SwampG8r Nov 2015 #17

Not hardly. moobu2 Nov 2015 #19

Saying there are Republicans she would run with is a perfect answer? SwampG8r Nov 2015 #23

Rachael asked her to pick a Republican. moobu2 Nov 2015 #24

And she said she could SwampG8r Nov 2015 #30

She was asked if she would pick a Republican from the current candidates. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #67

In the trick-trap question she was TOLD she HAD TO pick one of the Republican candidates moobu2 Nov 2015 #74

And she didn't answer under the conditions stated SwampG8r Nov 2015 #76

It is an easy question to answer. "I wouldn't pick a republican, Democrats can do the job." Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #85

That wasn't the context of Rachel's tricky question though moobu2 Nov 2015 #94

And Hillary refused to answer in that context SwampG8r Nov 2015 #104

Burnish that pebble... LuvLoogie Nov 2015 #29

Eisenhower LuvLoogie Nov 2015 #27

This Bernie supporters heard she would pick none of them. Love you SwampG8r Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #31

She said none that were on the debate stage SwampG8r Nov 2015 #34

Confuzled. Is there more to the quote? Just none that are currently running Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #35

Yes she would not.consider those.running but SwampG8r Nov 2015 #42

She did not say she would consider another Renew Deal Nov 2015 #99

Could you quote those words "If she had to" Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #101

Oh oh oh oh! I get it now! You are right! Totally forgot that there are 15 republican Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #39

No, it was a hypothetical in which she had to pick a Republican. Vattel Nov 2015 #36

So, which Republican would you pick from those not currently running? Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #44

There ya go now you are on the same page as me SwampG8r Nov 2015 #46

So, which Republican would you choose on a "unity ticket" Hillary has some in mind. Luminous Animal Nov 2015 #65

Bernie ducked the cabinet question gwheezie Nov 2015 #68

Hillary did a lot of McCain babbling once upon a time. malokvale77 Nov 2015 #109

Hillary got the VP question gwheezie Nov 2015 #124

It was a gotcha question Kalidurga Nov 2015 #82

Anyone who hasn't figured out by now... malokvale77 Nov 2015 #119

This was.a bullshit question riderinthestorm Nov 2015 #86

Marco Rubio nt riderinthestorm Nov 2015 #93

Perfect match. malokvale77 Nov 2015 #122

Aren't we counting on republican support for Bernie to win? Agschmid Nov 2015 #88

Only on threads not attacking Hillary with them. moobu2 Nov 2015 #102

Figures. Agschmid Nov 2015 #103

"We?" Passing that, there's a difference between a Republican voter and a Republican VP. See? merrily Nov 2015 #108

Yes "We" if he makes it to the GE it's going to be "we"... Agschmid Nov 2015 #110

If you can't see any difference between a Republican voter and a Republican VP, there's no point merrily Nov 2015 #112

Not "new" honestly I support Sanders even now. Agschmid Nov 2015 #113

I'm not surprised some don't know the difference. malokvale77 Nov 2015 #125

Don't know or won't admit to knowing? I can't tell. merrily Nov 2015 #130

They should have asked her if Sanders candidacy helps the republicans. Renew Deal Nov 2015 #100

but we all know the answer. AlbertCat Nov 2015 #133

Nah, discuss the disgust of the faux outrage of the day. Really. nt Hekate Nov 2015 #123

The OP is lying and distorting what Clinton said Tarc Nov 2015 #121

NO malokvale77 Nov 2015 #128

I'm sorry that you are unable to comprehend the point of Clinton's comment Tarc Nov 2015 #136
