My question remains, when was the last time a Democratic Presidential Candidate used an ongoing, in real time, Americans being killed on foreign soil event AGAINST his republican opponent in a presidential campaign?

Ever?

That really should shut up their cries of "Benghazi, Benghazi" if the GOP had any sense of decency, which of course they don't.

Somebody paid a lot of money to make Benghazi happen and they aren't just going to let it fall by the wayside.

That would be a waste of money.

"you need to live in the here and now" I believe is the bullshit catch-phrase all the mouth breathers are using. I see it a lot in the comment sections of Salon and Raw Story.

Democrats lost in 2008 because weakly-affiliated Democratic voters stayed home. These are not the people excited about particular political issues, such as single-payer. They are the "I just voted two years ago. I have to do it again?" people.

And notice that the Republicans will not get the 2/3rds majority required for a conviction in the Senate.
