Does anyone actually like Hilary?

What.... the heck.... is this? This is so CREEPY!! !

I'd love to see them try.

Though you do need a majority vote of both houses to start the impeachment process.
The GOP couldn't even line up behind a bill of impeachment of Obama, submitted to the House by their own member.


Does anyone really want an female U.S. president?

Seemed is the word. A mythology has grown about the liberal progressive idealistic 60's generation propagated by the aging activists themselves. Usually children vote like their parents and it was no different then. The vast majority of people out in the streets parents were liberal. The kids of the Archie Bunkers listened to hard rock, did drugs, grew their hair long and voted Republican. The 1972 elections was the first on in which 18 years olds were allowed to vote and it was one of the biggest landslides in history for Richard Nixon in basically a referendum on the anti war movement.

2008 and somewhat in 2012 was the real generation gap when the kids in unprecedented numbers did not vote like their parents and went for Obama. Polling still shows large age gaps on many issues.

I much prefer Elizabeth Warren, but you go with your best shot.

Do you really hate the Republicans so much that you will make any such bogus claim possible to throw them in a bad light?

People who hate others like that are nothing but pathetic losers regardless of whether they happen to be Democrats or Republicans or anything else.

Huh? The House of Representatives does not need a vote by the Senate to start the process. If the House passes the articles of impeachment, then it is the Senate that tries the impeachment. Until the House passes the articles of impeachment, the Senate has no part in the process.



Which Republican submitted articles of impeachment to impeach Obama?

There was someone not in Congress who wrote up some articles of impeachment for Obama, but nobody in the House was crazy enough to submit them. Was there some other occasion?

I'm sure she'll bomb Iran, which will be fun to watch.

Where I live, we didn't even hold Republican primaries in the 60's. You either voted in the Democrat primaries are stayed home.

Today it is the opposite -- the last Democrat primary here was held in something like 1994.

I remember the first time I ever voted in a Republican primary.

I was in college at the time and voted on campus. The line to vote in the Democrat primary went out the door, down the hall, around the corner, down the hall, around, the corner, and down the hall. The line to vote in the Republican primary was something like two or three people long.

Naturally, as someone who hates crowds and hates standing in line, it took me only a few seconds to decide to vote in the Republican primary.

Wow Fnord, you hit the nail right on the head, again. Saying it like it is, just like an Aspie would. I want to drink beer with you some day.

I have voted for the Democratic candidate for every presidential election except Bush/Dukakis, I just could not vote for someone who called himself Greek instead of American. He was a ninny too, or at least the Republicans did a good job making him look like a ninny.

Point is, if you measure liberalism by voting record, then I must be a liberal.

Call it misogynistic, but I have this lingering doubt that Hillary is not able "to take one for the team". Good grief, hubby is the president, couldn't even give him a "happy ending" now and then, most everyone would agree the presidency is a stressful job, even for an NT. Others would argue where was it written that she has to do that, or do anything. Back in the day a co-worker pointed out that maybe Bill was like that for a long time and Hillary just put up with it so she didn't ruin her political career; the TV show "The Good Wife" has a story line like that.

One other thing. We are all on the spectrum here, right? Details oriented, right?

Hillary has two "els' in it. HiLLary not HiLary.

You don't know what I think of what the progressive movement has become but that is for another thread. But I will say this about about progressives, they have it wrong they think republicans disagree and try to block 99% of what Obama tries to do because of his skin color. It is about true disagreement + zero sum game mentality. Of course many Republicans are appalled by these tactics but above but unfortunately the Republicans with zero sum game mentality have mostly prevailed. That mentality really stated with Clinton 20 years ago and gotten more intense. My statement is based on it continuing into a third potential Clinton term. Doesn't mean it will.

Ignores Benghazi, does whatever she wants when it is prohibited, she even blathers nonstop about imaginary "male privilege" like Obama does about "white privilege" that he keeps imagining. Sounds like a white female version of what we have now.

And male privilege and white privilege doesn't exist? Ask most women and blacks, and you'll get opinions contrary to your own.
And as far as Benghazi is concerned, congressional Republicans had in fact released their own findings, in which they conceded that all that conspiracy talk is just that, talk, and that it was just a tragic incident. But then again, if you get your news from Fox, you wouldn't hear anything about that.

@ASPartOfMe I can't agree 100%. My point being about the generation most likely to aspire to the White House in the next generation, consider the the following.

First:

(This is from http://www.people-press.org/2011/11/03/the-generation-gap-and-the-2012-election-3/). Please consider the two lines that together represent the ages 37 through 54 and notice how much redder they are than the others.

Now this one:
. Same thing.


The cohort most likely to produce our next President is inarguably more Republican than all others (although I suppose you could argue about how statistically meaningful the difference is). The first of the contenders, Ted Cruz of Texas (age 44), just declared today (or yesterday) I believe.

Some of these ages are screwed up. When I turned 18 in September 1975 Ford had been President for 13 months. I am 57 1/2 right now smack in the middle of the 55-60 group.

Cruz is officially in. Tweeted announcement overnight. Announcement speech today.
