			<description><![CDATA[Before he had obvious presidential ambition--and the relevant money made available to him--"Barack H. Obama" lost a local election or two--and was known to Chicago Democratic activists of that bygone era--like myself--as Barry. Forgive my familiarity. I do business in DC, nowadays. And I will forgive your naivete. The President has much to fear from his friends in the intelligence community--espe cially those hyping the recent Boston amateur incident of 'terrorism.' Gov. Patrick has done a solid job as Governor. He would be well-advised to stay put.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It is not a waste to vote third party because then the Dems lose and slowly we force them to represent us, the people, and not corps. and the rich. This is a very long and painful process but seems to me that this is what the American public wants and deserves for their lack of paying attention. # or 4 elections and we will have progressives again, not fakes like we have now.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[All speculation and inane, or insincere, rhetorical questioning. The part about Jill Stein "wonder[ing] why no one on either 'side of the aisle' genuflects in her presence," ridiculous. And I do not have a problem with the (sometimes) slow and deliberative wheels of government. Sometimes -- as with the Patriot Act, bank bailouts, etc., it's best to get it right, than to just be quick about it. I am against false deadlines and last minute secret legislation, as well. Also, I wish that there was more honest deliberation and representation in Congress and the Presidency, which Jill Stein, and many others, would contribute, but who you'd dismiss right off.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Pickwicky, first off: When you say, "casting a vote for a third-party candidate... is NOT the same as casting a vote for a Republican or Democratic candidate, one of whom WILL win the election. The former vote is wasted; the latter decides the election--one way or another." You may not understand that you make no logical sense. But that makes no sense. Let me explain it to you. But remember, while I can explain it TO you, I cannot understand it FOR you. Elections are not decided one way or the other. They are decided one way. It is not the same as lottery balls falling randomly, with too many variables to calculate with any degree of certainty. People make specific, decided choices; and while there are variables, such as turnout, and marketing -- electronic balloting without paper ballot as the official determiner -- etc., they are still decided choices by people who have complete control over their actions. NOT RANDOM. Understand. People have the power to decide for themselves. Also, while you may not understand something, it doesn't make it gibberish. On the fabricated scheme and fraud against Democracy of voting for the lesser-of-two-e vils and not wasting votes. The verdict it in: Guilty of destroying representative government, undermining equal justice under the law, recreating a class system. You need to lose the pompous arrogance and recognize the consequences of not voting for the candidate that best represents your views, regardless.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[nice2blucky: Straighten our your reasoning--cast ing a vote for a third-party candidate who has no chance of winning a presidential election; i.e., the impossible event, is NOT the same as casting a vote for a Republican or Democratic candidate, one of whom WILL win the election. The former vote is wasted; the latter decides the election--one way or another.

			<description><![CDATA[ You are so correct, AND the Clinton Administration left the country with a BUDGET SURPLUS when they handed over the "Keys" ! YES. Everything that you mention above is true, and was accomplished with not just a LITTLE help from the Dot Com Bubble that drove the economy at the time. To point out the faults of a situation is NOT to pretend that the situation had no benefits. But we devolve into a simple cult of personality if we are unwilling to look at BOTH the good and the bad. So many people today fall into that trap in re: Barack Obama. Ignoring the facts on the ground just because "he's OUR Man" is nothing more than a vote on American Idol. Adolescent. And voting for ANYONE based upon what they have between their legs rather than what they have between their ears is just as immature. But for both of the Clintons we have a LONG "track record" to which we can refer, and it is not always flattering ! Like almost everyone else on the planet, I LOVE Bill Clinton. But I don't pretend that the man walks on water. They don't call him "Slick Willie" for nothing ! :)]]></description>

Try voting for someone who "will" do the job. Also, you act like I was writing to you, rather that about you.

And you seem to have missed the demonstrably responsive comments to what I wrote, which reveals the folly of one of your inane statements. And when people make comments that I disagree with, I am not shushing them. I simply want the ridiculousness of that logic acknowledged and wiser courses pursued.

			<description><![CDATA[@Onterryo: Conveying to the average American voter to show neolibs have an understanding of the economy, jobs and growth doesn't have to mean leaning toward the right, which has a 19th century-like mentality related those three factors, i.e., a Gilded Age wet dream. Neoliberals have gone along more and more with policies neocons support: Willing to cut social programs, fast-tracking NAFTA into existence, signing of the National Defense Authorization Act, a willing, borderline resemblance to the neocon's arm-chair warrior mentality. Obama publicably supported progressive-lik e policies during his two electoral campaigns at first, but, after elected, took a reverse course on pehaps the most important issues where progressivism was needed. He almost continually buckled under to the party of no. I get the feeling that with Repubs in power, things could get worse quickly; with the Dems in power, things could get worse more gradually. But, either way... Dems willing to cut the very programs from New Deal policies-create d by Dems- is quite an irony. I wonder how far this is going to go. Will the Dems continue to give in to further cuts, e.g., in Social Security? The GOP would go along with that since their goal is to weaken/eliminat e social programs. I did vote for Obama in 2012 to keep Romney out. But I'm seeing a continuing pattern where only a few Dems are worth supporting.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I did not use the word "electable" above to indicate that I support the party determining who is and who is not electable. By electable, I mean someone who is not going to either (a) run as a third party and lose and take away votes from the Democratic candidate, or (b) win the nomination because they manage to "game" the process and then lose the election because thye lack the broader appeal or have skeletons in their closet. I am in favour of grass roots movements. I want universal health care. I want tighter gun control, better schools, minimal tuition fees for universities, and more, but I recognize these things do not happen overnight. I cannot support any thought process that could see the Republicans regain power and set back the progress I see coming in the next 5-10 years. This is all about the Supreme Court. We cannot continue to watch SCOTUS be stacked with conservatives. To see that happpen in this decade with set us back one or two generations and, very possible, forever.]]></description>

The end effect of actualizing the twisted, illogical, and failed scheme of voting for the lesser-of-two-e vils is a dual-corporatis t (fascist), faux-Democratic system.

			<description><![CDATA[Neoliberalism arose because it occurred to some that Democrats could never govern without conveying to the average American voter that they had a fundamental understanding and appreciation of the economy, jobs and growth. The Democratic Party has a big tent and is inclusive of all sorts of "tags". There is nothing wrong with having a neoliberal in Washington, but electing DINOs is, and has been, an anchor on progress (and, yet, still better than a Republican). In a very small number of states it is possible to even imagine a socialist environmentalis t being elected but running a full slate of them in 2016 would leave Republicans with huge majorities in Congress and the Presidency. Yes, we can all aspire to certain ideals but the route we take to get there may have to be circuitous in order to avoid the minefields and traps laid by the Republicans. No matter what opinions you may have about President Obama, he and his team and the Party managed to overcome obstacles that would have defeated anyone else. If you really think we would have been better off with Romney than with Obama..well then, I have news for you! Yes, there may have been better Democratic choices in 2012 than Obama, but none were electable (unless, like many Republicans you believe the polls are fixed). The question is there anyone better than Hillary in 2016 AND electable.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm sure Hillary Clinton can get in the face of the GOP, sometimes anyway. I remember her performance regarding Libya, and it makes me feel more discouraged with the "new" Democrats, who are neoliberals more than anything else. That's no better than the neocons, although the latter are more "hungry" to try and provoke imperial wars]]></description>

They call themselves and others Democrats, Republicans, conservatives, progressives, liberals, Marxists, Communists, freedom fighters, pragmatists, fear mongers, lovers, fighters, Mom, Dad, etc. I bet your objection is more that you see fascist as a negative, rather than the labeling. That being said, I should have limited the statement to those that are promoting fascist enabler candidates. I goofed - probably because I was really ticked off by the article.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Ah, yes. Yet another imperialist Democrat ready to impose the Empire on people around the planet and Clintonomics on us here at home. Look at how well that worked out last time: ending welfare, ending Glass-Steagall, 78 days of terror-bombing Yugoslavia. Why not combine both corporatist parties into one and call them what they really are: the Corporate/Imper ialist Party. That way, Hillary can run with Marco Rubio as her running mate and get the white votes, the women's votes, and the Hispanic votes.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I gave you a plus but the Democratic Party cannot do what the Republicans have been doing since 2008, i.e. we cannot force the Party's nominee to move so far to the left that the middle is lost by either indifference or voting for the Republicans. It is extremely important the the Dems win the presidency in 2016 and 2020 if we are to see reasonable and wise people appointed to the Supreme Court. Then and only then can we expect to see real change! Change will occur, sometimes glacially, but we have to be patient because at some point gerrymandering, long line-ups at voting booths and excessive election spending will become so offensive in this democracy that SCOTUS will ensure they are eliminated or severely limited. Once that happens it will be a government "of the people, by the people and for the people" and not just for the wealthy and the corporations.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Beyond anything else, any other demographic issue or connection with voters, Hillary has a Karl Rove problem. It's a tractor-trailer full of opposition research he gathered in 2008 when Clinton was thought to be the presumptive nominee. I don't know how well or how badly that stuff will age, but I don't expect that Rove ever counted Hillary out of the running. If anything, it's clear that it was a goal of the GOP to besmirch Clinton's handling of the Benghazi raid, a hatchet job handled by McCain, who passes for whatever eminence grise the GOP has left. Will Clinton be up to running? and why are we talking this way less than a month after the current guy (who has a torturous four years ahead) was sworn in again?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Democrats are not the vehicle for changing this country around. All those who ignored this reality and told us that these hacks are the only realistic way to go about looking for defeating the rich reactionaries that currently control both corporate parties are the ones who have been thoroughly unrealistic, and they should be ashamed at themselves because they are always going to be BIG LOSERS with the strategy they have. Instead, one can easily see them already scurrying for beginning the 2016 campaign where once again they will tell us that is a life and death matter to vote Democratic Party once again. They never seem to learn anything. In the 4 years between then and now they will do no organizing for anything radical or 'progressive', but just organizing for 'getting the vote out' for basically all the wrong people once again. They will do their damned best to try to sell us that they are really all the greatest and utterly different than their Republican cohorts in the Big Business organized crowd. And once again they will be wrong. Until we get tired enough of this false 'choice' and begin to oppose it, this country is spiraling downward good and fast. Your puerile votes for conforming centrists ARE the problem, as much even as the Republicans you think that you are opposing.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[nice2blucky, Haven't you learned that you will catch more flies with honey than you will with vinegar ! Insulting people is not the way to encourage them to see your point of view . If a third party wants to be taken seriously they have to do the leg work that will make them viable candidates. They have to start at the local level and get a lot of face time so people will know all about them when they do run for president. The Greens haven't done that ,they always throw out a candidate late in the election year who most people have never heard about outside their state . If you really think its wise for us to risk our votes on these unknown candidates then your simply not being realistic . Get your candidates elected locally ,then to the Senate and Congress then get them out there early on the campaign trail,"like right after an election," then you will see more people shifting to a third party. Your not going to do it with a candidate who has not paid their dues locally and in Congress or the Senate because they are not viable candidates ,they need to be in office so they have a record to stand on that the public can see ! Do that and you will see a shift !]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Good post. The last few decades have proven that there is little difference between Democrats and Republicans on the issues of war and peace. On the primary issues of wars for empire, on "American Interests", on global interventionism , on the network of American bases worldwide, on the use of private contractors and mercenaries, on the maintenance of the largest military budgets in history, and even in the characterizatio n of military policy, the Democrats and Republicans have been nearly indistinguishab le from each other. If we put aside purely cosmetic issues such as who is the more "competent" in the prosecution of war or who treats veterans more fairly, the only real differences between the two parties appears as a preference for more war in Iraq versus more war in Afghanistan. It's very simple: if you support Obama, Hilary and the Democrats -- even if reluctantly, even if you're just being all sophisticatedly super-savvy and blogosphericall y strategic about it, playing the "long game" or eleven-dimensio nal chess or what have you -- you are supporting the outright murder of innocent people who have never done anything against you or yours- just as it is for those who support Republicans. You have walked into a house, battered down the bedroom door, put the barrel of a gun against the temple of a sleeping child, and pulled the trigger. That is what you are supporting, that is what you are complicit in, that is what you yourself are doing.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[You can take any position you want on Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren today, but remember that when the voting starts the MOST important thing is to win the presidency again in order to appoint the judges we need in the SCOTUS. Once that is done a lot of things can be and will be done provided the Democrats can keep their majority in the Senate AND win back the House in 2016 or 2020. What the potential candidates say and do over the next 2-3 years, especially on hot issues and in response to crises, will be critical. There is no point in fielding anothe candidate like McGovern or Dukasis "on principle" and lose the White House for another 8 years when SCOTUS judges will be retiring. Just look at what the appointees from the Reagan and Bush years have done to justice, fairness and equity in the US!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If Progressives want someone to the left of Hillary, then it might be worth thinking about who. If is easier to criticize the alternative you have than to come up with a better one. So, what if Bernie Sanders ran? Even if he did not win, would it change the discussion?

			<description><![CDATA[It is soo pathetic when these Democrat cheerleaders do their brainfree dance...but tragic when we end up with someone in office who talks one way and then appeases his/her corporate constituents consistently with their actions. I agree this Wash. babble is just that. It has very little to do with the real situation of the country and often characterizes the problems with completely flawed perception. The Dems are getting just what they want...which is just what the Repubs. want...more for their rich bosses in industry.]]></description>

She, like her husband is pro-business which you can read as bought and paid for by the banking establishment, just like her husband.

			<description><![CDATA[Just an observation: By about 11pm to midnight, my -- anti-Hillary (for President) --comment had slowly worked up to 12 thumbs up. While the "I would vote for Hilary" comment was at much lower. Yet, low and behold, in the wee hours of the morning, mine was down to +7 and the other up to +9. Go figure. I guess it's true what is said: no rest for the wicked.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I doubt if hillary could win. She has all the charisma of a troll. But it may be that the republicans continue to self-destruct but still I think there are many democats who would beat her in the primaries. She and her master, Bill, have a declining base of strong supporters. The younger generation don't admire the Clintons at all. Hillary is a has been. Hillary's politics are really bad. She's even worse than Obama. We don't know where the republicans will be. If they put up a team like Romney and Ryan, maybe anyone could beat them. But Hillary will fade into nothing over the next 4 years.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This analysis of the Clinton electoral appeal was also true in 2008--when Wall Street chose Obama to be their bailer-outer-in -chief. Unless Barry Obama drastically changes his pro-Wall Street profile the Democratic nomination will be the kiss of death in 2016. The Democratic Party has a Wall Street problem. I can see why Secy Clinton might want to decline the honor of the President's endorsement--th e President's insincerity aside.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[What a bunch of garbage. Did he even bother to see what other candidates would pole ahead of Republican candidates in enough states to win? Does it matter before the billions are spent on propagandizing the voters? He's just focusing on Hillary. Bill sold us out with NAFTA, GATT, WTO, destruction of welfare, repeal of Glass–Steagall , an unnecessary war in Bosnia - in other words - just another corporate enabler, just like Obama, except he didn't decimate our human and civil rights. He left that for Bush and Obama. Hillary was Sam Walton's little lady - just another corporate lawyer. Neither Bill or Hillary have condemned Obama's abuses. We can't stand another one of those fascist enablers controlling the power of our government. I would rather see a Republican win. At least the Democrats would resist a little before they were spanked and sent to their rooms. If you don't get behind Jill Stein (or her equivalent), you're a fascist party operative - not a progressive or a liberal. Either that, or you are a coward, and you doom humanity. Stand up for what you love for the world's sake! As Roosevelt said "All we have to fear is fear itself." Sticking with the Democrats expresses your fear - if you're not a fascist.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[We need to be getting ready for the future by educating each other about issues like the TPP, corporate constitutional personhood, financial parasitism of the big banks, worker-owned and -run co-ops, breaking up the corporate giants, etc. and building movements to change things for our kids. We need to prepare the candidates of the future by encouraging good people to run for local office. We need to quit being gulled into believing that elections are all about personalities. We need to make them about issues and hold the candidates we elect accountable for supporting those issues once they get into office. We need to change "the system". We need to put in place policies that will realize the predictions of 40+ years ago; the increased productivity that we have seen should have produced a 20 hr work week and a median income of about $95K. But our employers stole that from us. We need to reinstate the "Great Compression" that gave us 25 years of increasing income equality. We need to revitalize the middle class and make it much larger while living much smarter and shrinking our environmental footprint. We have very serious issues confronting us. It's about time we confronted them. Elections are important, all of them from city or town to county and state house. If we just get interested in the federal elections, we lose. If we just think about this election, local or otherwise, we lose.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think Christie has less appeal than meets the eye, but it doesn't matter. The Republicans won't nominate anyone who could appeal to Democrats. They do not want to win on those terms. Period. And anyhow, Christie just isn't their man. He isn't born again, he isn't an Ayn Rand freak (as far as I know), he's neither a good ol' boy nor clubbable, and he isn't a chameleon. He's an east coast, big city, in your face prosecutor. And as he'll freely tell you, people who don't agree with him are idiots. Which Republican primaries is that guy going to win? How will he answer to the Bible Belt for his (quite proper) defense of a Muslim appointee to the NJ bench? What will he say about climate change when the Jersey shore is barely cleaned up from Sandy, but the Koch brothers are listening to his every word? Will he stand mute in the days before the SC primary when Rand Paul pees on Title II of the 1964 Civil Rights Act? No … and he won't do himself much good with primary voters. I can't see Christie running a Romneyesque campaign of unalloyed lying and shameless etch-a-sketchin g, in which he disavows his own prior statements and beliefs 10 times a day in 5 different locations. But that's what it'll take, and all of Christie's likely opponents can do it with aplomb: Bush, Rubio, Ryan, Jindal and a bunch of Republican governors. Christie knew he couldn't beat Romney this year. He'll figure out that his chances are no better in '16.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Be afraid, Democrats. Hillary has demonstrated time and again that she is an establishment chameleon, very much like most of the Dems in the Senate. It is a sad reality that our foreign policy that Hillary, and now John Kerry, must implement is determined by "our" multinational corporations and not by We the People. And that foreign policy has created more enemies and danger for us than anything else. With regard to throwing your vote away, how is it not throwing your vote away to vote for someone who will govern in a way frequently at odds to your values and vision and will not challenge the powers that threaten to impoverish this country and its citizens and that systematically destroys our civil liberties and mocks the Constitution? We as voters have only one responsibility -- to vote for the candidate who most closely represents our values and vision. Handicapping is best left to those who race horses. They don't know which will win, either. It is just this willingness to fall in line with the established authorities that perpetuates the dysfunctional duopoly that today represents BIG MONEY instead of We the people.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Yeah, except that when the Clintons were in the White House they were IN BED with the Republicans. Who Passed NAFTA? Who passed CAFTA ? Both of which sucked jobs out of this country like a hole in a fuselage at 33,000 ft ? Who set up the financial collapse by REPEALING the Glass-Steagal act ? And, what First Lady was seen attending fund raisers in the '90s on the arm of Republican notables such as then Speaker of The House Newt Gingrich ? You know.... the AUTHOR of the VERY REAL "vast right wing conspiracy" ? Hillary is just as willing as was Bill to "suck up" to whomever has the power, ready to go wherever a favorable political wind would take them. It's just that Hillary was NEVER the political genius that her husband is, and therefore has more trouble "reading the winds". The only real appeal to Hillary as a candidate, is that most people think they would have "two-for-one" Clinton leadership with Bill as "First Fellah". In which case Hillary would NOT be the first female president, she would be merely a member of the first "couples" Presidency.]]></description>
