It is quite obvious that his peers in Congress don't find him appealing either. leftofcool Sep 2015 #8

on wishful thinking.

"Just wait until after the debates"

"Just wait until they know him"

Just wait, just wait, just wait....what a solid reason for him winning!

Also, they act like each state is on a different galaxy and there's no communication between them.

Hello! In this day and age there's a thing called "mass communication" Radio, TV, internet, social media. They cross through state lines.

I'm sure most people across the nation already know him...they just don't find him appealing.

Thanks for sharing it. Of course I agree with it.

But you know, I think maybe all this opposition should light a fire under us, the Hillary supporters. I refuse to let the negativity and the obstructions dampen my enthusiasm. Go Hillary!

become the Trump/Bernie Show, but I checked out the show when the CNN poll came out just to see if she would mention that Hillary had "EXPANDED HER LEAD", but true to form, she didn't touch it. She talked about the poll, but only how it impacts the Republican side. I made the right choice by removing her.

If Hillary were "collapsing" as much as MSNBC, then she'd really have something to worry about.

on MSNBC I watch any longer. But since it's been all Trump, Sanders and Pope I haven't watched more than a few minutes in weeks.

season began, the whole show became about Rachel's obsession with "politics". She's shown her hand more than once, and I tried to get past it, but the Trump/Bernie thing just became too much. MHP is the only thing left on MSNBC that I watch. Is there any wonder they're going down the tubes?

"Don't beat up on Hillary, we are so afraid of BS!"

If the GOP wasn't convinced that she could block their path to the White House in November 2016, they wouldn't be trying so hard to stop her right now. If they thought her knees would buckle and she was really going to collapse — if they thought she would be a breeze to defeat — they would hold their fire until she was the Democratic nominee.

I hate to see Democrats be so easily manipulated. It is sad.

Unless it's not Democrats. Hhhmmmm...

Thanks for the link, wonderful news! Not that I thought she was collapsing in the first place.
