Dr.Zeppelin posted:my least favorite thing about the michelle obama fantasy run is that she's made it abundantly clear that she hates DC and can't wait to leave but people just skip over this because we need to deny her agency to satisfy our electoral fantasies if someone's constantly banging on about it's annoying but thinking about what the hypothetical run would be like is just a thought exercise, idk how that's denying her agency any more than the hypothetical biden run

Tom Guycot posted:I agree it would definitely help her, or at least be less likely to be used against her. On the other hand though, its pretty clear that she would be doing worse than Hillary is. It's not clear but you can just keep repeating that over and over again if you want.

mcmagic is making the same mistake Republicans do in that they assume everyone who's listening is already on the same page with them as to the opponent being Extra Crispy Mega-Hitler Bacon Supreme and thus their attacks begin and end there. It's the inevitable result of living in an ideological bubble.

mcmagic posted:More people don't as her unfavorable show. Hillary Clinton is very likely to win not only the EV victory but also the popular vote. That would mean, by definition, more people want her to be President. "Hillary Clinton has high unfavorables with white men" doesn't mean "nobody wants her to be President." Something you keep ignoring.

Well, I just mean by virtue of the fact that Hillary is running a great campaign and there isn't anyone in the running who would be doing a better job against Trump than her, is what makes it fairly clear though.

mcmagic posted:The question was, a woman I would prefer to see run and who I think would be doing better. That woman made her choice and ducked out to support Hillary. She'll run eventually, but who knows how she'll do as everyone else has pointed out, she was appointed to the Senate specifically because she was a blue dog and wouldn't derail an already troubled Governorship.

Endorph posted:FLASH FAVORABILITY POLL I mean McMagic is legitimately a bad poster, but who's to say that without McMagic a poster with worse opinions might fill that void. Also while yes he objectively has dumb and contradicting opinions. I'm sure he actually genuinely has those opinions I'm undecided.

I like Gillibrand a lot. I hope she runs some time. She has been a lot more progressive as a senator than as a house member, presumably because of the district she represented.

I eagerly look forward to the seventh and eighth years of Hillary Clinton's Presidency, where white dudes complain that Congress may be deadlocked and do nothing but dammit I want to be ideologically pure while watching a white man do nothing instead of this Hillary Clinton woman.

Before the other thread got closed, somebody suggested I was a troll for saying Obama is a war criminal. Well, the use of unmanned drones against civilian populations does qualify as that. The murder of Al Awlaki, and that of his son, murdered without due process, despite being American citizens, was also a criminal act. It's ok if you want to say Romney would have been worse, or that Trump shouldn't be president (and he really shouldn't) but don't whitewash the terrorist foreign policy of the US just because your guy was in charge when it happened. These are the same kinds of things people berated Bush for. And all of this without mentioning the fact that the Obama administration has been the one that has gone against the most whistle blowers. Edit. And to the person that made a suggestion that the problems with Wall Street, in the case of HRC, are criticized out of misogyny. gently caress you. You don't get to avoid legitimate criticism by yelling "BUT LOOK, SHE HAS A VAGINA"
