In this election it is about making a choice between two very different candidates with very different visions for our nation. So the question is do you want Hillary Clinton to be your president, or do you want her opponent to be your president?
Bullshit. There is no difference here. The choice is between a Democrat that will further consolidate Presidential power while shitting on the rights of citizens or a Republican that will further consolidate Presidential power while shitting on the rights of citizens. I see no point in supporting getting shit on by one over the other. I'd much rather not vote and risk my disgust being mistaken for apathy than vote for either one and risk my begrudging participation being mistaken for support.
There's no nuance in a binary decision, and that is unfortunate when that decision is going to be interpreted as the collective will of the populace.

...the hugely popular first lady said.
71% favourable. 16% unfavourable. Those are historically solid numbers.

I have no confidence that whatever poll those numbers came from is accurate. Even non partisans hate her for meddling in school lunches.

I agree that the poll numbers here are probably completely bullshit.
I think if you like her you're probably amazingly stupid or completely ignorant of her time as the first lady.

If anyone uses the word "mandate" post-election, I'm stoning them.

Every politician presents himself as an honest friend of the people. 'Bigfoot/Yeti' tickets are all we've ever had.

Post debate bump for Mrs. Bill. It might take someone putting a car battery under Agent Orange's podium, attaching some jumper cables to his balls, and shocking the hell out of him anytime he opens his mouth and goes off topic. The smartest thing Hillary could do is say, "I defer my time to my opponent" on every question. That way, she can't look worse and he'll never get better.

Is Wikileaks going to derail Clinton?
That's a Fox link, but other sites are reporting it as well.
What could Wikilinks have that would end Hillary? I ask seriously because what scandals are left?

Ha! Big nothing burger on Wikileaks. Starting to think of them as a joke. Why would the Russians release anything? If they actually have something good enough to ruin her, they'll use it to control her once she takes office.

I think I saw Jeb Bush today, walked right by him next to Harvard. Right height, looked just like him, and Bush is guest speaking at Harvard throughout the semester.
