Speaking at CNN’s town hall meeting tonight, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton lambasted American gun right advocates. “We cannot let a minority of people — and that’s what it is, it is a minority of people — hold a viewpoint that terrorizes the majority of people.” While she was at it, Ms. Clinton called for an “assault weapons ban,” conflating semi-automatic weapons with fully-automatic weapons as she went . . .

 

We’re going to have to do a better job protecting the vast majority of our citizens, including our children, from that very, very, very small group that is unfortunately prone to violence and now with automatic weapons can wreak so much more violence than they ever could have before.

Obama has done such a poor job that she will be fighting an uphill battle. Let's just hope the Republicans can come up with a good candidate.

 

Ain't no such thing as a good Republican candidate. Republicans are too hard to please. We will wind up with Hillary because we deserve it.

As to the whole Hillary against guns thing, there isn't going to be a Democratic House in 2017, so any gun control laws are DOA.  The Senate has a chance to flip again in 2016, but without the House to match, we're back at a stalemate like we were from 2010-2014.

That's what "everybody" said about his reelection bid in '12, too.

Pretty much.  Though I will add, that the things Republicans were attacking the President for in 2012 aren't going to be used in 2016, because they have improved on his watch- though not necessarily to his credit.  Hillary will run on those issues to make up for her lack of record from 2008 onward.  Unemployment rate back to normal levels, budget deficits cut while still keeping programs intact, ect...those are issues Democrats can run and win on in swing districts.  Republicans need to come up with a fresh angle, because their message is only sticking to an aging electorate.

 

The best quote I read in a while came from a GOP strategist after the mid-term elections, and will come home in 2016 if the Republicans can't push get a long term vision the country can get behind.

"Midterms are brake-pedal elections. They’re about the incumbent and a course correction. Presidential-year elections are accelerator elections. They’re about where the country should go. We’ve proven we can win elections that are about saying ‘no,’ but we haven’t proven we can win an election about leading and taking people to a better place.”

 

Between all that, and counting to 270, Republicans are starting out with 3:1 odds against at best depending on who wins the nomination, while Hillary is the favorite at 1:2 in my unofficial, for entertainment purposes only, sports book operation.

I'm afraid it won't matter who the GOP makes the front guy. There will be record numbers of voters come to the polls based on the sole fact that Hillary is a female. Just the same as we saw record numbers in 08 because Obama looks black.

People in our country are that stupid.

Having compelling roles in a number of very fine films, Jane Fonda has redeeming qualities that Hillary doesn't.

 Compelling roles in film doesn't change her character one bit. A traitor is still a traitor. The photo of her sitting astradle an antiarcraft

gun in No. Vietnam, smiling, says it all.
