Come on really- just another freaking day
Really, really, this is a joke. Okay, there are numerous past examples of improper behavior or funding manipulation/fraud but freaking come on. Why can’t anyone with just an ounce of common sense see this is freaking stupid and just plain wrong? Please refer to the story below regarding the latest and greatest campaign schemes used by the potential Democratic candidate.
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/05/hilary-clinton-bush-donors-222872
When you solicit funds from big dollar donors, they will want something in return. Therefore, when Hillary is trying to get money for Republicans that is like sleeping with the enemy. Please if this would have happened with any other candidate, people would be screaming and saying this is terrible, but no just another freaking day in the life of the Hillary and her campaign.
I guess I must be sexism to point out this terrible activity and speak about double standards. However, for the love of Pete you cannot make this stupid stuff up.
Please share this information, people must be told the truth because I am scared for the future of our country if Hillary is elected. I guess if you are Republican, you now have a candidate to vote for in the General Election!

They will say this is good news for Democrats! nt
There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know.
And it'll be another stupid, tone-deaf thing they say
too. They only care about their high-dollar donors.
So, if they want to be the party of the Elite, I say, go for it. I'm not voting for them...
They already are
over at Kos. And they are attempting to pillory bobswern for writing a diary about it.

What is she going to do...
when trump picks the ultimate VP which totally coalesces the republican party back together.

Sadly, I think he was leaning towards Prince ...
... and of course, Bono and Sting are both ineligible.
I'm guessing he'll go with Oprah.

Oprah wouldn't have him. eom

It suddenly occurred to me that he could actually
pick Condi Rice. Then what?
Seriously, his biggest problem is going to be finding someone who is willing to step away from the Republican establishment. I'll bet loonies to timbits he'll pick a woman (NOT Sara). Nikki Haley?

Tom Hartmann thinks so.
Nikki. A multicultural (well, non-Caucasian) female who has shown gumption. Gumption.

If he picks a VP that is seen as the "worst choice"
that he could make, you'll know he's been a ringer all along.
I'm waiting for him to pick Rick Scott. He won't have to do another thing after that, unless he wants to literally roll over and play dead.
This is not
sleeping with the enemy. They are both the same party - the corporate party.
And neither of them cares about we the people.

I have wondered if the poles are shifting
If you recall until sometime in the early 60s the Democrats were the racists.
While one can not really rely on Donald Trumps words. He is very brilliant at saying the direct and to the point thing.
Paul Ryan thought he was making a powerful statement by saying he isn't ready to support Trump yet. Trumps reply that he hoped to get together and agree on how to treat the American better because they are getting a bad deal.
I have to say I truly enjoy watching the Republicans throw sh*t into the fan only to have it blow back and coat them. It makes me laugh something I sorely need as our country circles the drain.
Sounds like more and more of us
want to burn down the house (and the Senate, lol). Nothing good can come from within this pile.

Burn it all down
I was just saying to my partner, on the drive to work this morning, we should just burn it all down (figuratively; although, given what's going on in Canada, who knows). We started talking about Trump, but I found myself going on a rant about Hillary. We haven't talked much about politics lately, but I read about it daily and needed to get some of it off my chest. He's from Puerto Rico, where the two main parties are a bit more defined, mostly by their stance on the island's in/dependence, so our politics don't make much sense to him. Well, to me, either; I just know a bit more about the nonsense, being (more of) an avid (political blog) reader (than he is).
I can't imagine actually voting for Trump myself, but I can definitely understand the idea of doing so in the hopes the ensuing train-wreck gets the wishy-washy middle to finally understand progressivism is in their (and everyone's!) best interest. I just don't think it would actually play out that way in the end. I suspect a Trump presidency [shudder] would just reward all the scum coming out of the woodwork -- and push the Overton window even more rightward. The momentum is already there, and I'm depressed about the prospect of that trend slowing, let alone reversing. A Hillary presidency will continue the rightward drift, I'm afraid. (Maybe at a slower pace, but I doubt it.)
Assuming Hillary gets the nomination, if a write-in campaign for Bernie seems viable, I might consider that option come election day. (Not currently sure about voting laws here in Ohio regarding write-ins, but I will be by November.) But more likely I'll vote for Jill Stein. I'm pretty sure my partner would, too.
How can there be any progress under the rule of greed? Money has to be removed from our thoroughly corrupt political system. More and more I don't see how we can avoid widespread civil unrest to protest the corruption -- eventually... if the masses can ever WAKE UP. (And then the inevitable, violent, authoritarian oppression that would follow...)

(I was a lurker at TOS, but I visit less and less. This place is a much better fit. I'm not always doom-n-gloom; I also like dancing and feeding the birds in my yard... usually not at the same time.)

Welcome home (virtually of course)
and the birds prefer the food to the dance. Screw 'em on the dancing part, some of them think singing really loud in the morning is acceptable.

Shrill
I do enjoy the shrill tweets of the red-winged black birds.
I sleep with earplugs (to muffle the sound of my CPAP), so I only hear them when I'm already awake.

Of course HRC appeals to the GWBs. One and the same.
Most in America won't vote. Look at our past elections. I don't know the numbers but I've heard many times that our percentage of actual voters is lower than any other country.
Then add to that the amount of us whose vote simply didn't count... think NYC.
Then add to that even more corruption.
Koch.
Diebold.
ID.
Media.
I'm going to vote for Bernie but I know my vote is worth less than a book of manners at a Palin tea party. BUT... I will focus my energy on taking apart this two for one party.
I will focus on trying to save the planet from us and to stop America from attacking women and children in this country and in other countries.
We need to stop the tyrannical US.
