Let's not lie about who won Tonight

Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush.

Hillary gets to snipe at Obama for two years, while sayign "see, you shoulda voted fir me" in her best fake working class accent. Obama will be a lame duck because the people in this nations allowed their congress to sell themselves to the Koches. Not that anyone will call the Clintons to account for Grimy Little Grimes, or Debbie Washed up Man Schultz!

Of course jeb wins, because he gets to play nice guy to the tea party's bad cop, and of course, those same centrist voters that Clinton thinks will win can easily vote for old jeb.

"Republicans are instruments of Satan." And that was when Republicans were still halfway sane.

I no longer believe much of what I was taught in Catechism - but I sometimes wonder if Sister was right about this.

Since clintons were total failures at getting out the vote this increases chances she will be oppossed In Primarys.

Scott walker winning is bad news for Jeb.

people who liked obama trashed the clintons. talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face. and how exactly are the clintons even remotely responsible for anything that happened tonight? they don't appoint the DNC, DCCC and DSCC chairs.

She's female AND a Clinton. They'll camp out for weeks to vote against her.

The only people that won were the small subset of uber-rich Americans that will stand to get even richer while we stand to get much less. Sadly many poor, middle class and rich Americans gladly voted today to receive less thinking it made them a political genius.
