She never had any qualifications besides a history of predictable DC lanyard job hopping and also winning as a state senator in a pro-Wall street blue state in which she had the added election advantage of the better known GOP candidate dropping out.

For her State department appointment the main decision she owned (Libya) ended up being a massive disaster.

I mean yes, but already when she was one of the most politically involved first ladies (ignoring all the other politically involved first ladies like Eleanor Roosevelt) they had a tendency to bill themselves as a power couple.

Basically "she's the most experienced" as a statement always 100% relied on that, because her personal actual elected experience was otherwise basically in-line with Bush admin alums.

I'm going to raise $1 million to launch Bill Maher into the sun.

Bill Maher Offers Mitt Romney $1M To Wrest Country From Donald Trump In HBO Special

Explaining what a difference a few years, and one Donald Trump presidency, can make, Maher announced, “I would gladly give Romney $1M tomorrow if he would take over America. Swear to god!”

With the Democratic Party locked in a battle between its far left wing and its far, far left wing, no single leader has emerged to unite it. Clinton is trying to play that role by being a mother hen to the fledgling activists drawn to politics by their hatred of Trump.

If they were active in 2016, most probably supported Bernie Sanders in his primary challenge to Clinton. But by helping to fund them now, she is putting them in her debt for later.

we must fund moderate berniebros in order to fight radical berniebro socialism.

My succ-Dem senator is going to lose re-election to a man who looks like Voldemort in a Democratic wave year

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/06/14/nelson-florida-senate-latinos-rick-scott-645594

quote:

MIAMI — Florida Gov. Rick Scott’s Senate campaign has a Spanish-language web page. Sen. Bill Nelson’s doesn’t.

Scott is advertising in Spanish. Nelson isn’t.

Scott is learning Spanish and does interviews with Spanish-language media about once a week. Nelson isn’t and doesn’t.

Luv 2 be even whiter than the white supremacy party in a state with the third largest hispanic population. I can already tell he's going to lose and if he does he deserves it.

She sucks as a campaigner and also staff manager which is sort of something you need to win at a actual election.

quote:

But Juan Escalante, an undocumented “DREAMer” from Venezuela who grew up in Florida and is now communications director for the immigrant-rights group America’s Voice in Washington, said Latino activists and Democratic insiders worry that the party is in denial about the effectiveness of Scott’s outreach and the relatively low-key campaigning by Nelson.

“When it comes down to it, Scott seems more willing to speak to Latino audiences — going to where they are and speaking their language and showing a vested interest in what they care about,” said Escalante, criticizing Nelson for not embracing DREAMers and Latinos in the same way that former Nevada Sen. Harry Reid did.

“It’s rather unfortunate that we don’t have the senior senator of Florida embedding himself in that energy,” he said. “We may end up with a Rick Scott as a junior senator and a Marco Rubio as a senior senator. And I don’t want to see that.”

if democrats cant hold Florida in the face of:

2. an influx of Puerto Ricans with a vendetta against the gop
3. swing state Obama won twice

then they deserve to lose

also here's a dumb question but if Rick Scott wanted to learn spanish why didn't he do it during his 8 years as governor?

calling hillary the most qualified presidential candidate ever never felt true. by my understanding of what kinds of prior employment those types say counts as qualifications i would say FDR after being president for 12 years was the most qualified presidential candidate ever

It was laughably untrue and parroted by her supporters over and over in order to make 2+2=5 in their heads until they fervently believed it

She never won a competitive race in her life and her sole actual qualification was being a wife but they couldn't admit any of that so tried to head it off at the pass with ridiculous superlatives
