OT  

Hilary was to announce at noon today, via social media, that she is officially running for President.

However that announcement has been delayed because she cannot decide which server to use.

 
2016 = GOP WH, Senate and Hous

DeBlasio was Clinton’s campaign manager when she successfully ran for the NY Senate seat and today he refuses to endorse her.

Back in the 2008 primaries I was cheering for her over Obama as I thought she was less Progessive, at least more pragmatic and more “beatable” than Obama. The last 8 years have shown her to be just as dishonest as Obama. Now comes the pressure for her to show everyone a New, more Progressive Hillary. No doubt the media will eventually assist her in that regard. Too bad they won’t help to show the real Hillary but as you can see from DeBlasio, Clinton has already been “thoroughly vetted”. Expect to keep hearing that phrase going forward

Your headline is far from the full story. You didn't say why he refused to endorse her, and you didn't say that he could still do so in the future. He's waiting to see if she is spells out enough of a progressive vision for him. And, you didn't say what he thought of her.  Hmmm!

"DE BLASIO: 'No, not until I see — and, again, I would say this about any candidate, until I see an actual vision of where they want to go. I think she’s a tremendous public servant. I think she’s one of the most qualified people to ever run for this office, and by the way, thoroughly vetted.'"

If not poor reading comprehension we are only left with dishonesty on your part. If you can't find the information, in the body of my post, you claim I left out then you aren't looking for it.

ferret out the last two points you've alluded to in you last two posts. I know you like to play games, however, unless you specifically address them, we are done here!  ;)

P.S. I suspect, once again, you are straining at gnats!   ;)

If you would like to comment on things I have actually stated instead of criticizing me for words I did not use; instead of complaining about concepts you (erroneously) believe I did not address I would be glad to give your analysis due consideration.

BTW, you couldn’t successfully “whack a mole” even if someone killed it for you and then stuck it in the dirt with a stick up its ass. My suggestion is you get over me. My “games” appear too complicated for you

That such simple truths can get you so irritated at some level, yet it is also a shame you have such difficulty recognizing certain realities (what you have come to think of as "games"). Like I said, your best bet is to give up on me.

still not specifics. Just amorphous terms you use to talk about what's in your mind. Not, specific issues, quoting the words I've used; just vague snipes. And, irritated. I'm the one with the laughing emoticon. ;)

Anyway, you did eventually reveal your thoughts on Hillary and the Mayor of New York. Too bad you just couldn't have been so transparent in your OP.

And, give up on you? OK!  ;)

The "reveal" (as you put it) simply corroborates what my OP stated. Truths that were too simple for you to recognize, maybe because you were too eager to disagree with me rather than understand me. Even your major whining over the whole "not yet endorsed" was outlined originally by your's truly when I stated he had *today* refused to endorse.

If you want to avoid such things, my suggestion would be that if you don't understand points that seem opaque to you then you should seek clarification rather than offer critical attacks regarding what you think an OP should have stated.

My headline is as close to the full story I can find, at this time. :-D
  I have no clue what  President Obama will do in the future, though I have a strong suspicion he won't be voting for a  carpet bagger from Arkansas, with a  fake Southern accent, accustomed to dodging sniper bullets in Bosnia,  named after an unknown beekeeper who would become famous  for climbing  Everest, years after she was born.  
   
   I do suspect you will jump  off your Hillary  band wagon when your man lets you now what's on your mind.

   Google :  President Obama endorses Hillary Not

  "The two of them have become friends, but there are other people who are friends of the president who may decide to enter the race,” Earnest said."

Hillary apologist. That was not the point of my post. I'm much more interested in Jim Web, though I doubt De Blasio will endorse him any time soon.  ;)

His lack of endorsement would actually make her look better and a more viable candidate to me.

I will have to hold my nose to do so, but the chances of me voting for her in 2016 are at least fifty fifty, and holding my nose while voting is something I have done every election since 1984

So one question is whether HRC has become too conservative for DeBlasio over the past 16 years or is he a hypocritical pseudo-pragmatist. Of course I'm kidding (sort of).

He’s certainly the most Progressive NYC mayor ever. For any former campaign manager to essentially claim he does not know his former client’s vision of the future is just silly. Of course his motivation for withholding the endorsement is that he wants to shape her “published/public” vision, making it as Progressive as possible. And he now believes he’s earned the street cred to accomplish that since he’s moved from employee to Mayor of NYC.  

What’s most disgusting is he (and other libs) believe that something a grandiose as a “Vision for the Future” is up for sale

If that is the case I fully agree, despite my personal dislike of the Hildabeast she is a thousand times better than that POS.

She’s not nearly as liberal as the left wing Dems but she’s nowhere near the middle or even some left of center Dem. It was no slam on her per se, but a simple observation that there are many Dems that consider her unworthy (as things sit today) to be their nominee. I don’t think she’s a slam dunk for the nomination and certainly not for the general election. She is flawed and damaged at so many levels. She is nothing without Bill’s advice and counsel. She has no charisma (just the opposite). She’s arrogant. In short, she’s NOT a politician. She’s a political operative. She’s an LBJ that has no idea how to treat people. She may have saved Bill’s bacon and made him what he is but she can’t do the same for herself, not from the front row as is now required. If I had to pick a Dem from the present field as most acceptable it would be Webb. But It definitely was a criticism of DeBlasio who now thinks his present position makes it OK to be an outwardly opportunistic slime ball

No major market correction until 2017. The democrats and their wall street buddies are working overtime to prevent a market meltdown before the 2016 election.

If the choice is between Hillary and some right wing loon, then I'll either stay home on election day, or vote for a 3rd party as a protest vote. I so wish Elizabeth Warren would run.

I feel the same way about Elizabeth Warren.

Believe it or not, I "might" even vote for the Hildabeast in '16, depending on who the GOP runs. Right now the only Repub I really care much for is Scott Walker,  speaking of which, I wonder what ever happened to Priapussy?  He did finally pay me when Walker not only survived his recall election, but actually crushed the Democratic challenger.

Back to Elizabeth Warren, If she ran against the likes of a Santorum or Huckabee, I too would either stay at hone or maybe write in "annoying fungus" as my protest vote.

The most important reason in voting for a President in my view is the Supreme Court....Who do you want on the court, Justice Ginsburg or Justice Ailito....I'll take the former..

I would say Obama's most lasting legacy is not ACA, but the link below...Courts matter....Since Obama won re-election, there have been some real progressive nominees on the Circuit Courts ie; Pillard, Friedland, Barron, Harris..

and I hate to tell you this, but we may be voting for the same person come 11-16, unless Hillary self destructs, or the GOP runs someone I really can get behind and isn't just the lesser of the two evils, I can really see myself voting for her over the likes of Jeb Bush, Mitt Romney or any other moderate Republican, and certainly can see myself voting for her against a bible thumper like Santorum or Huckabee.

My one disclaimer to this is if it looks like the Dems are going to retake Congress, which doesn't look likely, I would then most likely vote GOP, unless it was someone like Santorum, Perry, or Huckabee.

I know some people LOVE to vote for divided government, and they base their presidential vote soley on who (likely) control congress...Democrats don't have much of a chance to retake House, at least not until districts are redrawn after the 2020 census.....They have some chance to retake senate only as it will be presidential election year (Democrats tend to stay at home at midterms) and some of the states are favorable ie; IL, WI, NH, FL, IN (If Bayh runs again)..

I do remember you saying you voted for Clinton in 1996 so this would be second time you've voted for a Democratic candiate!!....

On a sports note, I thought Kentucky was going to run the table and go 40-0...I think UNLV was last team to come that close to perfect season...They were undefeated in 91 going into the Final Four, then they lost to eventual champion Duke...

and I agree with your assessment of the 2016 election, I think the Dems have ZERO chance of taking back the House, and only the narrowest chance of taking the Senate, the unpopularity of ObamaCare and Obama making a mess in the ME being two major factors. Obama may rival GW and Jimmy Carter in "unpopularity" by the time the elections roll around, and I don't trust them to have complete control any more than I trust the Dems.

As for BB, yeah I thought Kentucky might run the table as well, but it looks like they might have another chance next year, but a perfect season requires a bit of luck as well as talent, you have to get a couple of great bounces here and there to escape without a single loss.
