They all jump into the designated OP begun by one of their own.
They bait and hate & insult & toss the RW talking pts out like they were their own.
They are here to disrupt and by the way they repeat the same hate mantra over & over I doubt any of their claims of "liberal, dem, progressive" that they avow themselves to be.
They are disrupters and all climb on the same post and try their damned best to keep the thing from spinning off into oblivion.
They come here at the same time each day in the same group & say the same RW Speak that can be read on any RW rag comment page.

They will be here as soon as their OP posted earlier is dead & drops from the top of the page.
Truth is, They Have Nothing more than that to offer up.
Hate & disrupt with RW hate speak.

They have nothing else.
I trash every RW pointless opinion thread of theirs & my IGNORE list is filling up fast.
I haven't missed one thing they have to say. I can read that blabber on Yahoo comment pages.

Not on My DU Screen.

women.

Hillary running will empower women to the point women who have never voted before will do whatever it takes to get to the polling booth on election day to get her elected.

Even the conservative grandma types in the south who have never voted for a democrat are likely to vote for her because of the historic nature of her candidacy.

Akin to how African-Americans who had never voted before came out for Obama but on an 8 times larger scale.

Women 50 and over are a big voting block and they want to vote for Hillary as far as I can tell.
Not some DUers of course, but people I meet. In my state it won't matter, but it may in some purple states.
I'm thinking Arizona for instance.

if she does end up being the democrat nominee, but I can say as a much older woman, I would love to see a female president in my lifetime (as long as they are a democrat) and she may be my last best shot. (then again I could live to a hundred but that seems highly unlikely)

I think that even women who don't like Clinton on a lot of issues, say, choice, they will still vote for her for historical reasons. They don't want to be left out of what they would view as a historical moment. Mind you, people might disparage this, while at the same moment saying a lot of voters are low information voters. That's the kind of thing that you can expect though. It's really a no-brainer.

It goes from being a "I like that candidate" vote to a "why the hell not, it's about time" vote.

Her group is broad and all are there with her for the fact that she has worked to advanced the people within these groups her Entire Adult Life.

Tell me one single GOP TEAbully candidate or loudmouth out there who has devoted any amount of their life to championing these same causes.
There are none. NONE.

That's why the Right is hell bent on destroying her. She has the enormous broad base that the Right has cast aside.

As President, Hillary Clinton will make her life's passion become policy.
She threatens to lift up & applaud everything the Right arrogantly keeps on the bottom of their shoes.

Women, LGBT, Minorities, Children, Education, Health Care, & Equal Rights, Voting Rights & Civil Rights for all.

Fairness, and a level playing field for these people who have struggled with the Right, just to be equal as human beings.

THIS is who Hillary Clinton has always been. This is why the country will be a far better place with her as POTUS.

The only fools in this game are the RW haters & those who cheer on their hate speak against the only person who is capable of taking the big trifecta prize from them in 2016.
And she will do just that. Her base is big enough & angry enough at being stepped on by the arrogant Right Wing.

Hillary 2016

She can also be criticized from the left. For example, people who criticize her for her ties to Wall Street and the banks are criticizing her from the left. You can't just dismiss this kind of criticism as right wing propaganda.

honestly, i'm ashamed to be a man when it comes to male voting patterns - so many support the repugs against their own male interests

not surprised. mrs clinton will do well.. also as long as she has better advisors than last time.. which seems to be the case and has some Obama people around her.. i also see that she hired Mr. Mook who is a tough dude too.. good we need that... I think the GOP is scared of her personally........ if she runs half as good as the President did with his campaign, she will kick butt.. I think she and we are in for a very brutal 2016 campaign and she knows it.. in fact i beleive it will be dirtier than the last two.. the GOP wants all three branches bad.. if they get it IMO the Dem party will be gone (in its present form) and we will more than likely hav a facsist state and who knows if the country could survive.. i guess if the economy melts down again under the Repugs (probably) and then the Dems or what is left of them , people turn to us again to fix it.. god i hope not.. ugh.. that would be a big worse clusterfuck...!

She hopes to gain some independents this way, in addition to women Democrats. Identity politics. During the campaign she will broaden her appeal to include all the usual identities: African Americans, gays, Latinos, etc. No appeal to the working class as a whole, because she owes too much to Wall Street and the banks. This is what passes for liberalism nowadays.

It has always been so for Hillary and for most other powerful women.

Even in fiction men have feared women in power. I like sci-fi and have been a fan of the Star Trek franchise since I was a little girl. I was thrilled that Star Trek Voyager's captain was a woman. Kate Mulgrew did a great job as Captain Kathryn Janeway (she's now "Red" in OITNB). In an interview Kate recalled how the decision to cast a woman in the lead role brought tons of hate mail, even death threats, to Paramount. She said that the "suits" stood in the back for almost a year while they taped the show. They were so nervous about the public's reaction to a female captain. How appalling is it that even on a TV show there were so many negative reactions to seeing a woman in charge? Voyager ran from 1995 to 2001, so we're not talking about the 50s.

We still got a long way to go.......
