2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHillary, the incorruptible...Talk about rainbows and unicorns,
Wacky folk that we are, where did we get the notion that $100 million plus in free cash from Big Biz completely compromises both Hillary and her husband . What?
A lot of talk about "free stuff" from Bernie........ but we know that with our system of legalized bribery,
Hillary and Bill may have always relied on the kindness of strangers like Big Pharma and
the big banks, but you know, they expect something for their money.
The meme pushed by Team Hillary has to be that she is so god damned principled that even after taking enormous legal bribes,
she will stand up to her benefactors.
Talk about rainbows and unicorns....if you believe that you will believe anything.

Most die-hard Clinton fans are only fans in reaction to attacks from the right-wing.

advocacy on national TV for invading Iraq and for marriage meaning only a marriage between a man and a woman.
With a principle here and a principle there--here a principle, there a principle, everywhere a principle, principle.

The more the right-wing attacked the Clintons, the more this group grew attached. It has nothing to do with how good the Clintons are, and everything to do with proving the right wrong.

their dog-whistle racism in 2008 cured me.

(9,841 posts)7. It's a natural reaction, when the right wing attacks someone your instinct is to support that person
