She was just humoring you.

I don't get it. I really don't.

Convention coming up. Let's at least see what the folks have to say, OK? There will be plenty of time to despair later, if that's called for....
Well I still have my citizenship if push comes to shove, but I would really hate to leave my granddaughters here should this nation finally lose its collective mind and elect that narcissistic a**hole

Still think HRC and Sanders was a winner.

Clinton Kaine will work for me!


Barney
Barney the Pres and VP are two people that must get along with each other, Bernie said more than a few things about Hillary during the primary that sort of made that impossible. As much as I like and admire Elizabeth Warren she does not have the experience necessary.

Nope, you're not all that funny. Although your fractured history posts are hilarious.

MIAMI (The Borowitz Report)—The involvement of a seemingly decent human being in the 2016 election campaign left American voters stunned and deeply bewildered on Saturday.

In interviews across the country, voters expressed reactions ranging from shock to total incomprehension at the campaign début of a man who, at first blush, exhibits none of the outward characteristics of a sociopath or clinical narcissist.

Furthermore, the man’s evident failure to be the target of fraud lawsuits, sexual-harassment claims, or federal criminal investigations was, in the parlance of many voters, “weird.”

“He seems like a nice guy, the kind of person you might enjoy spending time with and getting to know better,” said Harland Dorrinson, age thirty-two, who watched the man’s unveiling on TV. “I don’t know. The whole thing feels like some kind of prank.”

The man’s apparent humanity could spell trouble for his candidacy, as some voters questioned whether he has the capacity for unspeakable evil that is generally considered necessary to win higher office.

“I’m trying to keep an open mind, but I worry about his lack of experience being a dick,” one voter said.

Really? At least she got elected to the Senate on her own merit.
Also with Hillary and Elizabeth side by side, many may wonder if we didn't chose the wrong woman? We cannot have that by any means.

And you think Clinton did not get elected as senator on her own merit? Raj I am beginning to think that someone or something has truly clouded your thinking.

What elected position did she hold or ever hold before she was elected Senator and how long had she lived in New York? Who was her Republican opponent? Yes my memory is rather cloudy especially since there is so much fog here in the mornings, but the word carpet keeps recurring in the back of my mind.
