I want real people representing me. I want people who change, evolve and grow as our needs change. I want them to mature as government employees and politicians, as I have done over my life as an activist. We don't need any would be saints or cult leaders.

Flip-flopping is a right win meme. We need to throw it back in their faces as such when they say it. No one on our side needs to repeat their rhetoric or allow them to frame the debate.

we need that very message to be carried outside our echo chamber in new and innovative ways. Repugs have dominated too much of our public media for far too long. We need billboards, TV ads, internet and social media ads, and a hell of a lot more Congresspersons like Ted Lieu, Maxine Waters and Adam Schiff to shout "hell no, you're full of crap" in their faces.

I'm also elated that Secretary Clinton is finding her new voice to help bring about change - while doing it in the honorable, diplomatic fashion we all know and respect her for.

not only did she testify for 11 hours, she made the Republicans questioning her look like idiots.

Meanwhile, Trump whined that a 2 hour GOP primary debate was too grueling for him.

I loved that moment when one Repug was yapping away and she brush away a bit of something off her jacket. That's how a lady gives you the middle finger salute.

And oooohhh the wailing & footbstomping we hear by others, when asked to simply reveal their taxes.

In strength, wisdom & wit, She stands mountains taller than all of those whiney ones.

She made Gowdy look like a 12 yr old wearing a dunce cap.

Courage, under fire..
Thanks for the post & AMEN

(and are still giving us) about super delegates? Just wait. By 2020, the same people will be making a big stink about politicians revealing their taxes. They will add that to the whine list, along with super delegates, and how we don't need closed primaries.

Imagine the good that could have come to the world.

They could have chosen to replace the Party that needed to be replaced. Instead they chose the Dems??!
Makes one wonder what their true agenda really is, in that case.

They chose to destroy the only Party of all people, rather than the Party of the elite oligarchs, global corporates of profit & greed-before-people & criminal mob syndicates.

Why. And they wonder why millions are suspicious of their intentions.

testifying for 11 hours, or one hour, UNDER OATH, with combative questions hurled at him? He'd be screaming and foaming at the mouth after two minutes. Even some people on DU who dislike Hillary congratulated her on her testimony.

Look what happened when his self initiated phone call to Fox and Friends went of the rails in less than 4 minutes. They would be carrying him out on a stretcher after 11 hours of testifying.

I wake up every day knowing she would have been a great president. We all need to focus on beating the repubs. Infighting is not going to do us any good. Far left candidates won't do it either.

Trump himself will be pleading the 5th before Mueller, the FBI’s Southern District of New York, and probably the state of New York are done with him! At least some of Trump’s supporters who watched Fox & Friends yesterday should now believe that he is a raving lunatic who is foaming at the mouth, though I won’t hold my breath until this notion is confirmed.

NOTHING ever leaked and NOTHING negative ever came from

and WORSE

you gave a speech once to people on WALL STREET

And you said you wouldnt bake me cookies so I WHINED and said I was gonna hold my nose to vote for you and made sure EVERYBODY AROUND ME heard me WHINING




I will NEVER let the nose holders FORGET

And NONE Of this has JACK SHIT to do with the primary...this shit happened even AFTER that.

OK OK, yes you would have been one of the 3 best FUCKING PRESIDENTS OF ALL TIME but I cant forgive you for feeling a little sick ONE DAY during a campaign that would have KILLED most of us and I sure as hell cant forgive you or your husband who do more for people in need in ONE FUCKING DAY than any 100 of us will do in our LIFETIMES COMBINED
