I don't think Hillary has a chance of even being nominated.

I think she still has a great chance of being nominated.

A. I think she has enough political power and political savvy to potentially turn the email scandal into vapor.
B. I think if every liberal on the planet read this article about her... they'd all just ignore it.

As an opponent, this women is never someone to take lightly.

I hope you are right, but given her competition, and the fact that any problems she has seem to always disappear, I still think that she will be the nominee. I also don't see any Republican candidate that will defeat her. I hope that I am wrong, but the Republicans seem to always develop a severe case of foot-in-mouth disease during the last few months of the election cycle.

If I were running against her, I would take a close look at the Obama play book.

I'm so thankful I don't have to deal with the possibility of either Clinton or Trump, at least not directly. Mind you, the Canadian PM candidates aren't garnering much respect either.

I was just reading somewhere that Trump may be resonating so well with millennials not because of his politics, but just because he doesn't seem "phony". That's an unexpected assessment to me, but I guess it makes sense. Politicians are often so contrived and affected that even someone obnoxious, if he seems honest, could really seem like an improvement.

Political races would be such great comedy if one of them wasn't actually going to end up running things.

If Clinton or Trump win, I think I will lock my gate and stay home.

Dan 2:20-22
20 Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
21 And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
22 He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
KJV

I believe that when the people of a nation seek to follow the teachings and commandments of God, He blesses them with good government; and when the people of a nation reject God, and His teachings, he curses them with bad government.
On that premise, Hillary is precisely what the voters (in majority) deserve.

I am so fed up with our party leaders here. I keep reading all the bad decisions Harper has made during his dictatorship. I watch Trudeau in the debates and his ads, and I think, "Aggh! Another Trudeau, but dummied down!"

Mulcair is in the hands of Quebecers, racing towards giving them preferential treatment, should they come back to him after his niqab gaff. Talk about losing an election over something so completely and utterly stupid!

I like Elizabeth May, although she is not a Christian, she seems ethical. But the Green candidate pulled out in my riding, and her support continues to tank, if you consider going from 5.5% of the people would vote for her going down to 4.5% of the people voting for her significant.

One way or another, I'm going to regret this election. I will probably vote for the local Christian candidate. Too bad it took me 7 weeks to phone his office, and find out he is a church going, pro-life believer! My bad!

You're right. There is a solution to this nations woes.

2Ch 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

I think a lot of it has to do with him being fed up with political correctness too. There are places in the country that you can't even say "male or female" or "husband and wife" anymore without getting the crowd riled up at you, thats truly getting ridiculous. I could understand how Trump could seem like a breath of fresh air in that sense. Not that I think anyone belives he would be a particularly good president, just that pretty much everyone in the game right now is such a terrible choice that any little positive that people can connect with will carry a person a long way.

LOL on the True: Doh! comment. I met one of the nearby candidates - went to Christian college, came to a prayer meeting, but is not running in my riding. I agree with you about Liz May, but part of me figures that might be a wasted vote, as she is so unlikely to get in. I think we're in for a minority or coalition for the next while.

No. She does. This is the second time I've disagreed with you in the last two days. I'm NOT trying to cause trouble. You've posted many good posts. I've even given you a rep.

Okay. Here's why I disagree. Winning nomination is timing, control, polls, and organization, then money continues to be funneled into the campaign. So far, Hillary is okay in all but control. She's defending. She's not in control of the dialogue she wants out there.

I will say this: Her chances of winning the nomination are not as strong as they were once were. But she does have a chance. If Biden jumps in, she's got problems. Big problems. I suspect his numbers will jump almost overnight, causing Hillary's to plummet.

Always good to read your posts.

She has a great chance if our nation acts like this...

Trump's a comedy-show, the kind where people laugh at him, not with him. Any Americans my age that I know, think he's an idiot. And it's not because he has ridiculous hair (though he does) or because he has a gigantic insatiable ego, or because every time he talks I can't do anything but stare at his girl's mouth; it's because he views everything in terms of an economy. Everybody in those crowds who cheers for him (who are mostly redneck wingings, mind you) have no idea that what he's thinking inside his head is: suckers.

He only cares about making businesses money, exploiting whatever international power he's got to steal resources, and feeding his own ego and that of his dimwitted, cheering victims.

Trump is tacky, belligerent, without any common sense. He totally lacks class, finesse and self-control; all he cares about is profit, profit, profit. So if you want America to become a TRUMP branded conglomerate corporation that sticks a gigantic middle finger up to every other country and what it wants, then by all means, vote for him, get him in office, and maybe you'll get a nice slice of pie (though I doubt his no-corporate-taxes and less-welfare are policies designed to help you as average Joes). If America does go that route, though, it better be ready, when the time comes (and it will), to stand up on the world stage and be shafted in return by the rest of us, in equal measure at the very least.
