2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Ohhhh now Hillary is the big bad wolf.. [View all]libdem4life
(13,877 posts)that amaze me...probably because I'm new.
It is those that are so Very Vocally Vitriolic about Her, some bordering on hysteria, which seems to include this second group who warn us that we must not...must probably not even think, have opinions, let alone say, anything about the next presidential election ?????...prior to 2014.
How could they not, holding such negative angst, be ranting to the world...friends, family, co-workers, schools...about The Fatally Flawed One, who just happens to be The Only One, at present. And I'm also guessing they aren't waiting to make their anti voices heard until after 2014, that other PC meme here that drives me nuts.
These Anti-Her Democrats....they influence others who may be non-political deep thinkers or pundits. It matters. Many don't know a lot about politics...thus the low voting rate...but are easily influenced, even more so when race or gender are in the mix. They are easily led to vote against her, vote Republican or stay home.
I also hear so much about the sanctity of local races until after 2014. The national candidates heavily affect not only the votes, but the turnout in the down-ticket. If you have a Blah or a Wicked candidate...who wants to go knock doors, even if they are for a mayor or State Rep?
So, guess that's my little rant. Thanks for your info. Again...I just pray these others don't go unintentionally (hopefully) converting other people to the the nice, friendly Republicans or lower the voting percentage with stay-at-homers.
My Dad used to say..."If you can't find something nice to say about someone, then say nothing." Debate and holding different opinions is fine and very useful. Verbal bad-mouthing, not so much.
