She wouldn't be running virtually all negative ads about Trump if she wasn't basically saying "A vote for me is a vote against Trump".

Obama didn't have to do it in either election. His were mostly positive.

If that Billy Bush tape did not come out she would likely be losing. If Trump had stuck to his message of change, trade and quit being the policeman of the world Clinton would have lost. Instead he decided to get into fights with the family of a dead marine, wing it at the debates and generally self destruct on Twitter. If she wasn't a terrible candidate it would not be close.

It is though sort of fights that propelled him to the nomination. Those fights are what fires up his "base". Without those fights he is nobody.

No guarantee he wins even if he pivots. He only made it a race during the Hillary health scare period. He has been done since the first debate. Thar effectively ended his presidency. The first time they appeared on stage together it became evident why he can't be President.

Clinton has jumped to -580 at my offshore book. This Friday or Saturday she was around -385. A week or so ago she was around -250.

She's clearly going to win which is why no one should vote for her.

You know what's funny? You and Hillary are more aligned on fiscal and social issues than any candidate that ran for president this cycle. Hillary will make deals with Paul Ryan.

I don't really fear Hillary as much as I fear the Democrats as a whole. I'm just not a fan of what guys like Bernie were selling and trying to push the party towards. If they can put it down then that would be great.

That is why I want Hillary to win but I want her barely to win.

Why not ask Obama?

I mostly agree. She is really awful campaigning. Probably the worst I've ever seen.

He ran negative ads against McCain and Romney during the summer to define them. They were also normal politicians.

I know almost all politicians have negative ads especially as it gets close.

The ratio here has to be 10-1 right now though.

I get why. Trump is horrible and set himself up for this. The point though is that she is simply positioning herself as "Not Trump".

That makes sense. I think secretly she probably wants the same.

When the college loan bubble bursts what Bernie was selling won't look so crazy.

I'm voting for Johnson. He isn't a good candidate but this is about long term. If he gets the 5%, the Libertarians don't have to fight to get on the ballot in all 50 states and they get matching federal funding like the GOP and Dems. Voting for Johnson is more a vote for the future of the Libertarian party rather than a vote for only Gary Johnson. When Tim Kaine is running in 2024, I don't want to be stuck with a lesser of two evils option again. I want the Libertarian candidate to have a realistic shot.

Agreed.

Going with Johnson cause he's pro weed and want to give some steam to an 3rd party.

And it's a reasonable strategy for her given that she has the second-lowest approval rating among any major party presidential nominee since polls first began tracking this statistic in 1980. The only nominee with a lower rating is Trump.

So it has been her goal to make people forget how much they despise her while constantly reminding the electorate how bad Trump really is.

_________________

Agreed.

This was more to counter the idea that people are voting for her instead of against Trump. Even Hillary is basically telling you to vote against Trump.

I think Hillary is correct to do it. She'll get the title even if it is as undeserved as another 2016 champion.

The only two groups that actively like Hillary are white suburban women over 55 and LTG.

Pretty much everybody else knows she sucks.

I'm still baffled every time I read/hear someone who is very Pro-Trump or Pro-Clinton. At best you should be holding your nose and voting for one or the other. I don't understand how anyone can support either candidate without bringing up how bad the other one is.

Here is the deal or maybe not. Our last 2 presidents were both ill equipped to do the job from the moment they entered until possibly the time they left. Bush was a tough talking incompetent that sold out to Neo cons and Business elites while Obama conned the Middle and Poorer classes into thinking he was like them.


Hillary CLinton has a better grasp on the inner workings of govt than either of them. She also is pragmatic and isn't afraid to work with the other side. She probably will amass more votes than any person that has ever run for President. She has a sizable Pro-Hillary faction. In fact this faction attempted to have her run for President in 12. This notion that she is the Anti Trump candidate is mostly cooked by Never Trumpers that just cant seem to accept the fact that they supported such a flawed candidate.

She will be fine as President
