Meanwhile, she's not only surviving an 11-hour marathon grilling, but she's making the interrogators look like the hateful partisan idiots we all know they are. The GOP candidates are competing to see which one can insult the most voting blocks while Hillary is making important policy statements about the economy, the environment and gun control. <br /><br />It's beginning to look like Abraham Lincoln running against the Three Stooges.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-79683495237995213942015-10-24T18:31:28.421-08:002015-10-24T18:31:28.421-08:00Phyllis (1:21) I was going to make the same observ...Phyllis (1:21) I was going to make the same observation. I'm pretty sure that Hillary would not be able to control the state and county prisons. The local governments would have a fit that she might kick out all their cronies. We'd need a much bigger Democratic majority across all levels to try and change the states too. I like the fact that she is committing to this course, but this, too, is a new position, which Bernie has held all through his career. I am committed to work for her if she's the nominee, but I still don't trust her. Her record doesn't reveal a populist history, so how can we be sure that she will follow through on these promises?<br /><br />I believe that a lot of us (including me) projected our liberal views onto Obama when he was running. And it turned out that he wasn't as liberal as we imagined. I'm afraid we're doing the same thing with Hillary.physicsmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-69259417909945857982015-10-24T18:29:10.283-08:002015-10-24T18:29:10.283-08:002:33, what does this have to do with our atrocious...2:33, what does this have to do with our atrocious prison system?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00483612543018540243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-34576698936527774082015-10-24T15:53:20.787-08:002015-10-24T15:53:20.787-08:0012:28pm
