That's an interesting comment. I don't see hillary becoming president.
But if she runs, I certainly will vote for her.

It's possible for a conservative democrat to win election next term.
More than possible I'd say all things being equal. But if the democrats
put up another liberal the republicans will win.


What's a liberal, Jeff? Seriously.
To answer that simply, Anyone left of the views held by the majority in this
country. And that does shift, it's a moving target.
Personally, I believe that anyone who has a good handle on cause and effect
and a decent memory is probably a conservative. Among conservatives there
are differences ie; Social, Fiscal, Constitutional.

Most Americans, and most politicians, are somewhere around the middle.
Bush isn't a liberal, but he certainly isn't a conservative, not by the
standard definitions. Mrs. Clinton is left of center, but not that far
left.

The Republican Congress seems to have various litmus tests to determine
who is and who is not a conservative. It's a moving target for them, and
full of hypocrisy. Our new attorney general is a conservative. He's not a
nut case like the last guy, but he is a conservative. But apparently not
conservative enough for the congressional conservative nutcases.
