Add onto this JEB's sense of being entitled to the position and the dynastic stench coming off him, unlike Hillary, who is only related to a former president by marriage.

And one conservative, to the right. <br /><br />That others are much further to the left/liberal side, or much further to the right/conservative side does not negate the proper identification found in my first sentence, which is pretty close to what RN said in the above comment.dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-17608408518387003582015-08-07T09:59:54.042-04:002015-08-07T09:59:54.042-04:00No matter who runs or who wins little will change ...<i><b>No matter who runs or who wins little will change and the hate goes on.</b></i><br /><br />Clinton is a fiscal liberal in that she leans to big spending on the domestic side and is apparently quite tolerant on social issues.<br /><br />Bush is somewhat more conservative on social issues but on the spending side he would merely flip spending to heaving on defense and security and lesser on domestic. Still a liberal fiscal spender.<br /><br />Now, as to skudrunner's quoted statement, yes the hate will go on, fueled almost exclusively by the right-wing fringe element such as seen on right-wing reactionary sites linked to recently.

Once the trumpmania dies down we can sort through the candidates that are relevant. The republicans will sort through the masses and find a somewhat acceptable candidate. Unless HRC is indicated and given the same fate as Petraeus for doing the same thing, HRC is the anointed one from the DRC. <br /><br />No matter who runs or who wins little will change and the hate goes on. skudrunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610092853412481236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-7823077795988594112015-08-06T08:31:31.187-04:002015-08-06T08:31:31.187-04:00This just shows that the liberals are deep in the ...This just shows that the liberals are deep in the big money also.<br /><br />Despite Hillary being liberal and Jeb conservative, they are similar as you have noted, Les.
