And like I said before, nobody really likes Hillary. She's uninspiring to Democrats, and Republicans want her head on a pike. She'll only win if she has a challenger as vanilla as her.

nah son

hillary is going to be the next president, mark my words

If that fat **** from Jersey is running against her, then I'm banking oh him. He actually has a personality and fat people are jolly.

i don't think that'll work

take a look at american television

fat people are on reality shows about getting less fat and **** like that, but you can't sell a fat tony soprano esque **** for a president... the republican party ran themselves into a wall last time around hopping from one gimmick personality to another. they can't afford to make that mistake again

imo the only person i see from their camp with any real potential is marco rubio.

Nobody has ever really run a fat dude for national office. I don't know that a fat guy on TV would be as big a turn off as you might think. No way we'd elect a fat chick though.

~~John Wilkes Booth~~ · 04-29-2015, 08:03 PM

i'm not saying it's a huge turn off.. it works for tony soprano the governor of new jersey... it won't sell nationwide to conservative voters. he won't make it past the primaries

~~John Wilkes Booth~~ · 04-29-2015, 08:06 PM

i mean even his number one supporter back in 2012, ann coulter, hopped off that train a long time ago. and you can say what you like about her tv personality but ann coulter is pretty smart and has a pretty good grasp of the conservative temperament imo.

~~John Wilkes Booth~~ · 04-29-2015, 08:13 PM

actually though i only say hillary will win cause everyone keeps saying that tbh

i have no idea why, really. i just look for trends in what other people say. seems like for every election i've been aware of politics for it's been sort of a foregone conclusion long before the election who was going to win. last time it was obama, now people are saying hillary.

she seems thoroughly unlikable to me, tbh

i guess people just don't think the republicans can win a presidential election period

Potential quadruple post interrupted! You'll just have to settle for a triple this time.
