Volkerball posted:Why is it that everyone instantly assumes Clinton has the lock on every other candidate? If Obama taught us anything, it's that prior experience in this party means nothing. Personally, I think her foreign policy in Syria and Egypt has been awful, and Deval Patrick gave a better speech at the DNC than she's ever given. It's a little premature to think she's got this all wrapped up so early. Juan Castro has to be in the talk as the guy of the future as well. Probably not 2016, but I think he and Patrick are the two most promising people in the party today. Obama is not a counterexample, he is an extreme outlier in the political world. Obama's do not come along every day. Comparing his campaigning skills with anyone else is like comparing a professional sport with the farm league, and the technical aspects of his campaigns are the primary reason he won the 08 primary and a large part of his victory yesterday. 312 fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Nov 8, 2012 |

say no to bats posted:Jindal is already getting touted again, despite the disaster that was his attempted gifted star-turn in 2009. Probably more a temporary clawing at anything that looks like it can reverse the awful demographic trends that are killing the GOP outside of gerrymandering in elections. Really though, what the hell does Jindal have to offer?
