155. I don't see how Clinton is any more electable than Obama
The level of disgust that Hillary Clinton brings up in the people I know, here in ultra Blue Montgomery County Maryland, is amazing. Frankly, to me, she's nails on a blackboard/Gilbert Gottlieb type annoying. I can only imagine how bad it is in the rest of the USA among all voters, not just Democrats. I sincerely believe that neither of these candidates will win come November and we will have four more Republican Presidential years. This is the most golden of opportunities since Watergate, and we're blowing it.

A Presidential Campaign is not based on one's qualifications or even ideology, it's based on whether you want to see/hear a particular candidate dominate news coverage for the next four years. That's how we got Reagan and the Chimp. That's what all those voters that vote for someone they want to have a beer with, or someone that seems nice to their Mom, have done to this country. That's Democracy in the Television Age, made worse by the Internet Age.......
