I will support Hillary Clinton, but a word to Bill

everytime I see or hear bill Clinton cozying up to the bush family I cringe and remember why I shifted my support from Hillary to Obama in 2008.

Bill - you are judged by the company you keep. Talking to the bush family as an honorary bush or a 'brother from another mother' bullshit only makes you look opportunistic and treacherous. The people who supported you do not support the bush cartel.


do us all a favor and stay left and don't hide the horror and treachery that was committed under the bush regime.

But something we should worry about. The Florida state Democratic party is ran by former Republican insiders so the "hanging chad" issue won't be needed this time out. Will be just a flat election theft as in Ohio 2004.
And I think the Rebukes have too many things in play and millions of dollars in the right pockets sponsored by the Koch Bros that will make 2016 very difficult for Democrats.
Obama overcame the obstacles set up by Republicans because of his organization and those he had running hos campaign. Hillary cannot put together that kind of an efficient organization when comparing Obama's campaign.
There is enough money there to buy undetected moles with in the campaign by Republicns

The former is obvious. The latter is the connections he has and the fact that he's said things that are pretty far out there in the past. I honestly think she should campaign far more on her own and distance herself from her husband. But we all know that won't happen.
