Her argument du jour is that Democratic voters need to "get real" and choose someone who is ready to be president.
"Get real" Indeed, you should, Senator Clinton. And what, pray tell, is your much-vaunted experience? Would you allow someone to land an airplane or run a coffee shop just on the strength of their marriage to a person who did those things? We have bitter experience seeing how well the son of a president does in the job, what makes anyone think that the "spouse of" is qualified to be president?
You want to "get real?" Then let's talk about the 800-lb gorilla in the room: The fact that most Republicans hate you and your husband. Let's talk about how they are going to turn out en masse, regardless of whom the Republicans nominate, if you are the Democrats' nominee. You as a nominee mean that the Republicans are guaranteed 45% or more of the general electorate, which means that you and the Republicans are going to fight over 5% of the independents, while you also have to try and retain the disaffected Democrats who are probably starting to get pissed off at your sleazeball tactics and your (and your husband's) derision directed toward those Democrats who are supporting your opponent.
On the other hand, your opponent seems to be well positioned to both mute Republican opposition and to attract independent voters. But I digress, this blog entry is not about him, this is about you.
All of us who have voted for the other Democrats running for president are people that you are going to need on and before November 4th. You would be well advised not to run a scorched-earth campaign for the nomination.
In other words: Stop insulting our intelligence because we are not cowering in awe of your awesomeness.
Don't piss us off.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

ReplyDeleteHell, I'm not a Republican, and I don't like her; most independents like myself don't like or trust her.
A lot of Democrats don't like her, either. Clinton's margin of victory in her home state was no greater than Obama's in Wisconsin and a lot smaller than Obama's in his home state.
