Trump cheats at golf - the ONE and ONLY politics thread

Hillary is nothing like Obama.

She doesn't have the optimism. She doesn't inspire people.

She's also a known quantity. People can't invest their hopes and dreams in her like they could in Obama, because they know they'll be let down.

They know Hillary is a morally corrupt, conventional politician, who voted with George W. Bush, to go to war in Iraq.

 

African Americans voted for Bernie in Michigan because half their families are in jail from
Bill Clinton's draconian crime bill.

 

Ineffective? Damaged his party? How so?

 

Hillary is not a dreamer like Obama. She is a pragmatic leader that makes hard choices
which also happens to be the name of her political treatise.

 

President Obama turned out to be much less of a dreamer than Candidate Obama - much more of a pragmatist. He'll be remembered as the cerebral, cold-blooded guy who made good, tough decisions.

 

What's he accomplished?

Nancy Pelosi got healthcare done almost in spite of him.

His foreign policy has failed.

Dems have lost elected officials at all levels of government. There is no Democratic bench.

He's really been terrible.

 

That's better. Atta boy.

 

I guess you could make that case if you want to pin the loss of congress and state and local leadership to President Obama

 

Romney advisor, disbelieving polls to the very end:

 

Still waiting on the name of one Democrat.

 

Ed Koch.

 

I'd say the country is about 100 percent better off now than the shambles it was when he took over. He ushered through major health care legislation against fierce oppostion. So he hasn't exactly been ineffective.
