WALKER AND BUSH IN NH AND TIED WOTJ BUSH IN VA. BOTH STATES WE NEED. ALSO POLLS INDICATING THAT HER UNFAVORABLES ARE EITHER TIED WITH HER FAVORABLE RATING OR UNDERWATER.

(just yelling 'cuz you did

I honestly believe that this insistence for over a decade that Hillary be the nominee, has been bad for the party.

I don't see Sanders catching on in Iowa. ucrdem May 2015 #3

That sounds as if you are saying Iowa which voted for Obama would not vote for a Jewish candidate. Bluenorthwest May 2015 #13

I didn't realize Obama was Jewish. ucrdem May 2015 #16

The real question is why YOU would equate the words "All American types" with being non-Jewish FourScore May 2015 #24

Yes, I believe we are on the same side with regard to this matter. MADem May 2015 #95

Yes. I thought it seemed we were agreeing vehemently. FourScore May 2015 #96

Kerry is part Jewish--half, IIRC. merrily May 2015 #27

The confusion is that Jewish refers to a religion as well as a heritage (unlike say "Irish") karynnj May 2015 #81

Clinton looks like a former cheerleader. The "rules," too, are still being written for women. MADem May 2015 #93
