Amid Clinton controversies, Democrats yearn for an alternative


Posted: Mar 5, 2015

The full article is at the link, but one paragraph that stood out to me:

 

“The problem is, there’s nobody out there who’s not Clinton who’s the equivalent of Barack Obama,” said Larry Drake, chairman of the Portsmouth Democrats in New Hampshire. “He was a fresh face . . . and he gave great speeches and he turned out to be electable.”

 

This is a GOOD thing. We don't want another Barack Obama. We need someone who can dig us out of the colossal mess he has created.

Conservatives have been yearning for an alternative to Hillary for years. - LOL

The Republicans do not want to have to face Hillary. Honestly, they didn't want to have to face her in 2008 either.

Isn't it fortunate we live in a country where majority rules and "We the People" get to choose our own representatives?

It's really hilarious when you think about it. I have (sm) - LM

a family who is mostly conservative, and 1 or 2 liberals (shallow end of the gene pool), and whenever we are discussing politics, many of the conservatives and liberals alike will laugh at how the Republican party has no one to come up out of the ranks and run for President. So, besides Fauxahontas, the Indian Princess, who do the Dems have?

Maybe the screamer will come out of the shadows. - Sam

They really don't have too many options. Are there any more community organizers waiting in the wings? Maybe Al Sharpton, the "presidential advisor," can come up with a choice. Oh, this is about to get fun. Maybe old Petunia Pig will throw her hat in the ring.

I actually heard Rush yesterday say people are mentioning - Al Gore - OMG!! LOL

They must really be scraping the bottom of the barrel.

ROFL
I actually heard conservatives the other day say people are mentioning Rush! - LOL

Yes, please. The real "brains" behind conservatives should come out from behind the shadows and join the debates: Rush Limbaugh leading the "put your money where your mouth is" campaign.

Oh, who would Elton John support? Such a quandary.
Probably Ben Carson. - Cheeky

Conservatives have spent the last 6 or so years worried about running against Hillary.

It's fun to watch them do their little name calling exercises against Democrats: "Obama bad." "Hillary bad." Apart from the status quo, it's all they've got.

Ebay As An Alternative?Sep 11, 2015

I sure envy the artists on both of those sites that make decent livings. I added up the past items s ...

Alternative Minimum TaxMar 15, 2017
Trump and the Pubs want to get rid of the alternative minimum tax.  Based on what is known about Trump's finances now that those 2 pages have been revealed, he would have paid a tax rate of 3 1/2% without the alternative minimum tax.  This would probably be true for the other millionaires and billionaires as well.  What do you think that would do to the federal budget and the national debt? ...

Possible Alternative Answer To Food Stamp FraudMay 17, 2015

Ask the food stamp recipients to turn in their monthly grocery receipts to their caseworker for review.  Give them 3 strikes or they're out.  Not only does ...

You need to get control over your party because you can believe that the majority of Americans won't tolerate efforts to undermine a duly elected government, and will regard it as nothing short of treason. If you don't want 2018 and 2020 to be repeated debacles such as you have suffered in the last 4 successive elections, get a grip on your party leadership, which is OUT OF CONTROL.   ...
