2016 Election

The Democrat party plans six debates. Some candidates are complaining that there are too few of them and there is an attempt by the party to shut them out.

I'm looking forward to their first debate coming up next month.

Should be fun, Hillary is way flanked on the left for now and will have to tell their wingnuts something crazy to get them back in her camp. Fire up the popcorn!

The attacks on Hillary's looks don't bother me at all...

Everything else the righties attack her over turns out to be much ado about nothing (Benghazi, emails, etc.) so they always revert to attacking her age and looks. It will come back to bite them in the butt with women voters later on...

Actually, no. And I would be a strong democrat supporter if I was American. Hilary has lost trust. All politicians have, though. It's not like the fact that Hilary *may* be complicit in Benghazi or ditched her emails is really status quo for any long-term politician. Americans know that. There is dirt on pretty much every single candidate for president. Politicians are scumbags, Hilary included.

Only she was involved in the raping and murders of high-ranking American officials.

The attacks sure did bother you yesterday, when you wrote about a photo of her, "We aren't in the general election yet... who is to say it won't be used in every ad the Reps run against her?"

How does that show that I am bothered by the attacks on her looks? I was responding to EvenBob claiming Dems would be doing the same kind of attacks....

I do enjoy your hostile responses to all my posts. Mainly I enjoy ignoring them, as most of them are nonsense and not worth the 30 seconds it'd take to shoot off a response. I feel like your life would be much more personally satisfying if you just block me on here. I won't be offended...

Isn't that the whole primary system in a nutshell? The candidates try to go as far right or left as possible to appeal to the base. Then when the general comes around they move back to the middle.

Only lately the Republicans have gone so far right that they do irreparable damage to their candidacy.... (Mitt Romney's "self deportation" and "47%" nonsense come to mind...)

Thankfully the country is moving left so whatever Hillary says to appease the "wingnuts" won't be as harmful as whatever crazy stuff the other side has to say....

On reason is because Hillary changes her look so often as needs arise. She probably changed her hair more than any first lady in history. Anyone remember hillaryshair.com? I wish I could find the pic Drudge had from a 2008 with her handlers holding up six pantsuits identical except for color to get just the right look.

Except men, running for president and in the public eye, do this sort of micromanaging of their appearance - her husband's hair has shut down airports - and only take flak for it when something like that happens.

Just the ones that are factually incorrect or try to revise easily accessible history.

I believe she shut down some airport or something recently as well, however I do not have the time to find the details on that right now. The difference is the men do not change their appearance much, hers changed totally any number of times.
