All the stops will be pulled out for Hillary, the meltdown is going to be popcorn worthy, we have not yet begun to see ugly.

(20,453 posts)Also, I realize some people feel that talking about polls is veering off too soon, but when answers to burning issues are not allowed to be the focus or the centerpiece of a campaign, then we have to ask ourselves the hard question ahead of time... Who has the best plan of getting ourselves away from corporate control of the economy, endless wars, and how we can stop doing what we allow the corporations to do to the planet?
We cannot ignore this part of "the game", I believe we get lots of paranoia from the discussion of polls when it "ain't supposed to be that way... cause the DNC and the RNC and how much the media whores itself in this lie.
What I get is that people need to talk to each other across this nation. That's not happening in the way it was meant to, due to the way elections have been corporatized.
Let's face the music by listening to what is REALLY going on.
