Hillary's NO-dimensional campaign is hurting her badly

We, the electorate,
are jaded and cynical
about politicians' honesty.

We know from experience that
campaign *promises* ring hollow,
and absent any legislative record
a politician will say whatever they
think is necessary to sway an
audience to their favor.

Hillary IS exactly the type of
politician who will say anything,
who will change her *message*
depending upon whom she is
speaking to.

As such, she has NO DIMENSIONS.
She stands for NOTHING she pretends
to value or represent.

Hillary has consistently triangulated,
used weasel words, and withheld
making commitments until it is
politically expedient, or any danger
of taking a principled stand has passed...
(TPP for instance).

We, the electorate, see through her facade.
We ARE tired and repulsed by the establishment
game of *better than a republican* or
*who else you going to vote for*, or
*SCOTUS!!1!1!*

Hillary is a NO DIMENSIONAL candidate.
She IS, works for, and represents the 1%.

We Can Do Better.

If you're supportive of a candidate who clearly uses careful wording to avoid answering questions and has shifted themselves in the name of expedience, perhaps you should either...

1. Reconsider and truly digest how Hillary compares to the many politicians before her who have used the same tricks and tactics.

or

2. Accept that you're supporting a typical politician, the type that has been yanking our chains for decades.

When I see posts like yours, it only rings in my ear as "I cannot defend Hillary so I will instead mock the message"

You don't come off as clever, you come off as ill-equipped.

Life would be much more pleasant if the Democratic Party did not insist (as an entity) on serving up candidates who are so contradictory to the basic liberal/progressive beliefs, values and goals of many of us.

In the 90's, I would have loved to have been able to kick back and succumbed to Bill Clinton's charm and eloquence, and pseudo liberal eloquence.

It would have been sop nice to unabashedly been able to support him....The problem was her kept doing this shit that was conservative and oriented to screwing average people to benefit Big Business and Big Banks.

I have no faith in online mobs of people, especially in niche areas. Far too much experience in that across a whole host of subjects over the years.

There are people open to reason. Very few of them are going to be here. And topics like this from those that have absolutely NO interest in discussion are not worth talking to about it is what I'm saying.

And there's no easing of concerns either. That's just a gentler, kinder, version of what you said in your first post about it all. NOTHING will ease someone like Cosmic Kitten or many other absolutists in regards to HRC and Bernie. NOTHING.

After watching the Trump speech last night, I'm telling you, he will grind up Hillary into little pieces if the two of them ever debate. Trump is a proto-fascist at least, but he has style and presentation. I never watched him much before last night and I now see how he connects with average people. Substance won't matter in a debate with him, he'll be into his tenth round of applause before Hillary even gets out a "During my time as Secretary ..."

The counter balance and real alternative to Trumpism and/or Repuglican fanaticism is a Democratic candidate with passion, who will consistently, intelligently and wisely advocate a populist economics, an undisputed champion for working and middle class Americans -- that is not corporate elitist and political insider Hillary Clinton.

65. Whaa? She's better than the Republican option.

That's all she needs to say. And now that the Republican's have Donald "The Fascist Option" Trump leading the pack Hillary will be free to update her 80's Republican stances to the 21st Century Republican stances. It's all good, the average voter can't see through the charade. Oh, and don't forget the "Madam President" argument, that's sure to garner millions of votes by itself.

I notice all you got in reply is, once again, a load of snark. Apparently, her supporters don't care that HRH has no integrity. That's scary to me. If Bernie was anything like HRH, he wouldn't be getting my vote! This reminds me of the Idiot-In Chief's supporters. In their eyes, he could do no wrong. Look what THAT got us - ENDLESS WARS (with millions of innocent people dead), A COLLAPSED ECONOMY, A COLLAPSED GLOBAL ECONOMY and millions of citizens who lost their homes and life savings. Yet, the 1% gladly took OUR $12.8 TRILLION bailout money - OUR TAX DOLLARS! The 1% comes out unscathed, while the 99% loses homes and their life savings. AMAZING how that worked, right? And there's people here who want more of the same!

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

PEACE
LOVE

70. Damn, now they're even making fun of Clinton's accent! They forget that she lived 20 years.....

.....in Arkansas AND has been married to a native of Arkansas for 40 years.

Like Bernie Sanders is another James Earl Jones or something.

I guess Sanders supporters have conceded defeat if this is the state of their "debate" on the issues!

71. It's clear, Hillary exaggerates her southern accent.

I live in Florida. Many New Yorkers here. They've been here for decades. You can still immediately recognize their New York accent.

Does Bernie Sanders sound like he's from Brooklyn? Of course.

91. When I've visited the south (mostly Georgia), I find myself with a faint southern accent....

...within hours of getting there. And when I visit family in NYC, by the time I go home that night my NYC accent (which I worked hard to get rid of decades ago) had come back.

I guess the thing is that since Clinton can no longer be attacked on the issues she has to be attacked about her accent. Pity.

The obvious, painful end is near, and can't be stopped and no matter how many dimensions are hypothesized, the one we live in is pretty solid right now.

Desperate attempts to do ANYTHING are clearly hastening the inevitable by driving off anyone who might have even thought just a little bit of switching to support for Bernie.

NO ONE wants to be associated with twilight zone theories about dimensions and even fewer want to try and figure out the logic.

Almost daily deserters from DU's GDP are showing up on other sites.

In this case, the OP contributes to the "jaded" readers here who are very tired of wasting time on *pablum*. (I really don't know why bold, caps, and asterisks **** are used on DU, but what the hell, I guess I'll throw in a few just for fun.)

Ok..time for a video now??

Because this kind of thrashing and open mouth wailing is cringe inducing and painful to watch.
