'crazy' and controllable to run against her? I think she would be perfectly acceptable to the party establishment. What makes you think she isn't?

and I'd hardly call her crazy. But there may be some of that 'establishment' who will want to hedge their bets, partly to compete with the other party's crazy and controllable. Some of the Democratic candidates in this latest election, 'crazy' as we might have thought them, lost to the crazier opposition.

And you look like a fool doing so.


What PRESIDENTIAL candidate have the Dems offered that was remotely close to the nut cases like Romney? West? Santorum? Dubya?

Just a cardboard cutout to prop up and recite nice speeches written by a committee.... like actors do... while somebody else, unelected, runs the government and consults an astrologer!

Dubya was the PR President 2.0. Sit down and have a beer with him! (watch out for the pretzels!)

The GOP think the President of the United States should be merely a media presence.
