Sanders to win Iowa Caucus?
« on: January 06, 2016, 05:18:14 PM »
So a few different programs I have listened to on NPR have had political commentators basically say if Hillary loses Iowa and New Hampshire that she is done.

So I'm thinking about switching my voter registration to Democrat and attending the Democrat caucus to cast my vote for Sanders.

Iowa- 88% more livable that the rest of the US

Yep, I've seen stories that portray Hillary's campaign as beginning to panic.  Seems that they've known that NH was probably a loser for her.   But apparently their internal polling shows #FEELZTHEBERN pulling even to possibly pulling ahead in Iowa.   She does poll better in SC, simply because Bernie socialism doesn't poll well in the South.

But back-to-back loses in Iowa and NH, might be enough to switch the momentum away from her.  It might be 2008 all over again.   The thing to watch is an exodus (forced or otherwise) of her campaign staffers.   If you see her start firing people, you know the wheels are coming off...

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I've been answering every phone poll I get just so I can "vote" for Bernie in the poll.  Anything that pisses off (on?) Hillary makes me happy.   >:D

It looks like the "secret weapon" Bill is not helping her either with many women voters. The fact that she ruined many women's lives while protecting Bill (and her political future) seems to be having an impact.

Odd, the MSM has anointed her with chrism, and started the beatification.

How can she lose?

No, just a war with one woman. I got nothing against the other woman running for president, I'd be fine with her in the oval office.

The problem with Sanders is that he's started to (more than ever) sound like Grandpa Simpson with the one liner tweets I've seen reported that basically show a crazy old man with no grasp of economics or foreign policy who is yelling at clouds. Example: "Why are student loan interest rates higher than home mortgage rates? It's not fair!" Gee, I don't know Bernie. What does the Lender recover when a homeowner defaults versus when a student defaults?

This will make it more difficult for him to take votes from Clinton. While the OWS and SJW types continue to rally around him, it's going to turn more mainstream Democrats away from him. He'll still capture the nutty granola six figure salary with 1.5 kids, one Prius and one Leaf dem families in California big cities, but I think he's turning off your average dem family, who may vote Hillary, or may just sit it out.

In other news, Juanita Broaddrick has stepped out of the background, which is not going to help Hillary. Most of her younger voters were born well after Bill Clinton's most nefarious incidents. Bringing that history to light is not going to make Hillary look good with the younger feminists.

Quote
“I was 35 years old when Bill Clinton, Ark. Attorney General raped me,” Juanita Broaddrick tweeted Wednesday.

“Hillary tried to silence me,” she wrote of Bill Clinton’s wife and the current Democratic presidential front-runner.  “I am now 73…it never goes away.”

Not sure if serious.

In much of coastal California, the bumper sticker on the Prius is either "my other car is a bicycle" or "My other car is electric". So, two feel good cars in every garage! Hurray!

Actually, maybe I'm wrong. Sanders has quite the slice of cultures and Americana at his rallies. Looks like it includes lumberjack wannabes and chemtrail observers.  =D

It is, uber-lefty sites like VOX are writing articles about Juanita Broaddrick's story, and MSNBC is openly discussing Bill's recent visits to "Pedo island" with the wealthy deal-maker guy accused of keeping underage sex slaves in his mansion.

A few decades of Lefty/PC/SJW hypersensitization of what constitutes "sexual assault" since the Clinton Admin was over is coming round to bite them.  And considering what Clinton has done over the years actually was sexual harassment/assault even back in the 80's and 90's, his record and Hillary's definitely breaks the envelope now. And Trump was the one candidate honeybadger to flip the script in five seconds flat when Hillary made the huge tactical mistake of calling him "sexist".

Planned Parenthood also bumped up the timeline of their endorsement of Hillary to today/yesterday, which is kind of odd, since it's such a poor time to come out with it. There's nothing immediately going on where it would give her enough of a "bump".
I promise not to duck.

Planned Parenthood, and the sexual abuse of minors - what could the connection possibly be?  ;/

Just read up on Jeffrey Epstein. Apparently he ran an underage ring for personal use as well as blackmail of prominent persons. Which makes sense, he got a slap on the wrist when he was caught. They really don't even really try to maintain the illusion that we have a justice system anymore.

Bernie isn't nearly as charismatic on stage (no, this is not a complement for Barack. He was as good as Hitler at the speechifying back in his original campaign days and it scared the willies out of me) , nor does he have the cachet of being black.

Bernie may have the granola munching dumbasses in his corner, but he won't be able to win over the superficial idiots the way Barack did and Hilary could have.

Yeah, Bernie' core are the Avowed Socialists, Anti-Vaxxers, Whole Foodies/Organic/GlutenFree/ANti-GMO's, assorted Fruitbats left over from the 1960's and the College Kids/Millennials with a metric buttload of student loan debt.   His appeal isn't much beyond those morons.   Oh, and folks that failed History and Economics in High School..
