Some seem to be cheering on Ted Cruz as some sort of foil against Trump, nothing that odious fart has to say interests me one iota.

Next Hillary chooses Tim Kaine as her potential VP, it's seems as anything that might give the left of the party some hope is to be avoided at all costs. Yet they seem conditioned to accept and applaud the choice no matter what they actually think of it, all this choice seems to give them is more right to shout at us "lefties" about voting and stuff.

There seems to be a complete denial that this VP choice is but more triangulation, after giving lip service to the left when it was expedient to do so, the choice says more than all the words spoken to date. I cant wait until they pretzel themselves into Gordian knots when/if she starts appointing her executive team.

When winning becomes all that matters you risk losing because believe it or not people can actually see what is going down, we are not all little bots to be threatened by fear. I have often said I dislike H R Clinton. that's personal not political, but I distrust her so much more and these manoeuvrings only serve to exacerbate that distrust.

Once more when and if it matters we are appealed to for support and time, one has to ask why because the campaign obviously thinks that we are not worth the effort, they have enough disaffected Republicans to get them over the line or at the very least to depress the turnout on the right.

I wrote a diary on ToP yesterday saying that Trumps speech [with twisted co-option of some of Bernie's policies] was actually dangerous, even if it was ugly. Obviously I'm wrong because centrist democrats believe that they have this in the bag, I would say it's going to be closer than they think. Democrats have forgotten why populist policies work since they have given them lip service for decades, they work because they appeal to the masses and not just political junkies inside the beltway.

They give me the reasoning that progressive policies of yesteryear are no longer progressive and that progressive pretty much means triangulation now. Now I would say H R Clinton is about as progressive as Theresa May, they say pretty much the same things, just a reminder, T May is a conservative.

I really hope they don't hurt themselves too much as they tie themselves up in knots following and desperately trying to justify every twist and turn in The Clinton Campaign, they cannot say that they were not warned however.

Tim Kaine is just boring they say, a poor choice even, then they try and convince themselves that it is only Clinton that matters whilst ignoring completely what her actual choice signifies.

Wow

They really do confuse me.
