Her "excuse":
"I say a lot of things -- millions of words a day -- so if I
misspoke,
that was just a misstatement," she said.
Sorta like, "What difference does it make".
All politicians are liars, or at minimum exaggerators.
That goes for Republicans too.
Just don't have a target yet.
It'll be fun when the target appears.
I expect it to be a real big target.
Even her "millions of words a day" is a far fetched exaggeration of
the
truth.
Several studies indicate that the average woman speaks about 20,000
words in a 24 hour period. (Men typically speak about 7,000).
Assuming that Hillary is not "average", let's give her the benefit of
the doubt and double that. No, lets' triple that. Hell, lets
make it
*10* times more words a day than the average woman. Still not even
close to a "million words a day".
What in the name of hell are you talking about?
You must really be afraid of her to bring up such nonsense.
Oh well.
There's no doubt the Republicans are terrified of Mrs. Clinton.
I doubt "terrified" is an accurate term, but it sure invokes some spin
to the cycle.
I think terrified is appropriate. If the GOPers nominates one of their
crazies, he will lose. Demographic changes are working against the GOP,
and that will continue. Meanwhile, the party is pretty much locked into
the Tea Party/Ultraconservative stance it has been developing since 2008.
The GOPers are perceived, and pretty much correctly, as:
anti womens' rights
anti raising the minimum wage
anti science
anti immigration reform
anti health care coverage for the less wealthy
anti helping out students with huge student loan balances
anti spending heavily on rebuilding superstructure
anti worker
anti union
anti bank reform
anti separation of church and state
anti meaningful firearms reform
anti black
anti latino
anti a role for the federal government
anti environment
And a few more.
So, what groups are going to vote for a crazed GOP nominee?
Rich white folks
Dumb rednecks
racists
men who dislike women
I don't know who will rescue the GOP from itself. The nomination won't
go to Jon Huntsman.
