I would far prefer Elizabeth Warren, but I would also prefer the criticisms against Hilary were based in reality.

I did.

The best no-spin summary of the Clinton email situation I have read to date. It is well worth the read...

The Takeaways. The Players. The Timeline.

I also know the FBI confirmed the probe is over earlier today. The summary still speaks for it self.

Perhaps you should read my posts before you make unfounded accusations. I think my calling Drumpf a sex pervert and my call for him to be registered as a sex offender should tell you I'm disgusted by it and him and his kind, but of course that doesn't fit into your world view, or that chip on your shoulder won't let you see it.

You are the one with the chip on your shoulder if you thought that comment was about you.

Same post with the rest about me, yes it was about me as you did not indicate another subject. I'm sure that was your intent. That is the truth.

It was a new paragraph and clearly talking in general terms. You just didn't read it properly. Or are you calling me a liar?

I could go on, but all this election has done is shone a light on just far we need to go to achieve equality. These things might not effect you, but they are very real to me.

All persons running for President, and if elected. Must endure the lies, hatred and vitriol directed against them. Just a normal part of the process.

The lies, hatred and vitriol directed against her. Has nothing to do with her gender.

Hillary is getting Equal Treatment. Nothing more. Nothing less.

I agree with ES99, if she were being treated equally she would be in the same situation as David Patraeus.

But she has the advantage of a DOJ and FBI in her pocket.
Really Equal.........

bobby, I don't do pissing contests, sorry.

But I see I caught betreger off-guard and I'm 99% certain that he's not being adversarial for the sake of being adversarial.

Which means I have to answer the question.

It's my superpower :)

Not to mention I'm left here all alone to do the dirty work while you lot are all off on a Trump crusade!

The guy is trolling the hell out of us. We've all known that looong before Super Tuesday. We should have had one last dig at him the day after and then ignored him. Never feed the troll, right?

What was I here for again?

Alex where did you get that?

Some Blackrock weirdo reminded me of this "little" backstory. And I've been kicking myself for forgetting all about it. What kind of info are you looking for? Just enough to get you started or the "kitchen sink" version?

On a related note, suggesting Alex's fear could be reasonably founded.

Wow OK, I got lucky! I thought it was going to take me a couple days to find the Blackrock clip but it only took a couple minutes. So even though this is a "long read" this is just the "to get you started" link:

Now off for TLOTR version that dates back almost 20 years. But should be easy enough to find some info... punchline has been etched in my brain:

Monica Lewinsky saves Social Security :)

@Sarge LOL! Perfect. Yes. That's the spirit!

@bobby you're always banging on about sources... there are enough of those in the Sirota article to keep you busy 'till Xmas.

@everybody my point wasn't to start a discussion on Social Security. My point was she is faaar more of a wolf in sheep's clothing than the wolf in sheep's clothing Angela and es99 think she is.

Anyway, I guess I'll see you guys after the outage. And remember, no matter who wins:
Winter Is Coming :)

Good Night and Good Luck America!!!!

Clinton wins the 1st vote, in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire (pop. 12)

At midnight local time, eight ballots were cast in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire.

The results were: four votes for Hillary Clinton, two for Donald Trump, one for Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson, and one for 2012 Republican candidate Mitt Romney (via a write-in)

These guys and gals have always waited up until midnight. So they will be the first election results.

Wonder if they party before or after they cast their vote.

Talking of party, why is the election on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November?

odd day, why not moved to better day and get more voters.

Aussies hold them at weekend and party around the barbie, all day until the result.
P.S. Same could be said for the UK we always hold them on Thursdays, I have no idea why.

But why on a Tuesday?
Well, the 1800s lawmakers thought the Americans had a long way to their polling station and often have to start the trip the day before the election. To intervene on people worshiping on Sunday was unthinkable, then Monday was not a choice, but Tuesday was a good fit.

For today's Americans the choice Tuesday can be anything but adequate. Many are forced to take time off work and it often means loss of wages. Nor is there any federal law guaranteeing workers time off from work to go and vote.
