Oh dear
Way back in the summer of 2015 - shortly after Donald Trump announced his candidacy - I was asked if he could actually win. My answer was an emphatic yes. While the media was obsessing over his style, I was arguing that people felt the country was dangerously of course. They wanted a candidate who would drop the namby-pamby political schtick and throw some real punches.
If Trump could stop getting in his own way, I argued, Hillary’s glass jaw would emerge and her campaign would collapse - just as it did in 2008.
My liberal friends laughed. They’re not laughing anymore.
Hillary didn’t “abandon Ohio,” the rat party withdrew support for the Strickland race.
Ted is being punished for going off ‘rat message about Hillary’s health.
“They wanted a candidate who would drop the namby-pamby political schtick and throw some real punches.”
I want to see more than a few punches.
I want to see full blown executions of all the traitors.
dont understand. Strickland is who? and which ted and what did he say?
Why would Hillary abandon Ohio?
The good thing about Trump doing well in states that typically go for the DNC, is that they may not have had a chance to set up their cheating mechanisms in those states. Perhaps Ohio’s cheating schemes are in motion.
If you mean that rhetorically you will get it.
If you REALLY think there will be charges and juries for holder, obama, clintons, etc, you shall be very disappointed.
#### em all. Let’s just get on with rebuilding the country.
“Hillary didn’t “abandon Ohio,” the rat party withdrew support for the Strickland race.
Ted is being punished for going off ‘rat message about Hillary’s health.”
No actually the article states that Clinton hasn’t been in the state for 20 days and that the Clinton campaign may be at least de-emphasizing Ohio.
“National Democrats are pulling up stakes in Ohio’s Senate race, and now CNN notes that the state has been conspicuously absent on Hillary’s travel schedule lately. “
[Why would Hillary abandon Ohio?]
This might answer your question....
Where has HRC been since 9/11?
Minimal visible efforts campaigning...
You and me both. Two hundred years ago, most of these people would have been shot or jailed for life. Today, they’re heroes.
Easy. All that money she poured into the Buckeye State was a colossal waste; Trump is surging and Rob Portman is going to crush Strickland in the Senate race. Meanwhile, Pennsylvania is now a dead heat and the gap is closing in Michigan and Wisconsin, among other places.
Even a month ago, the idea of Cankles having to defend Michigan and Wisconsin at this juncture would have been dismissed by her allies in the MSM. But the tsunami is building, and HRC is running out of options. She was supposed to be fully on offense by the end of September, cruising to an easy victory. Instead, she’s playing defense and she doesn’t have the stamina to campaign in all the places she needs to be between now and election day.
That’s why tonight’s debate is so critical. Look for some sort of surprise, with a little help from her friends in the MSM.
I live in one of the four “collar counties” that surround Philadelphia and I want to explain why it is so hard for a republican to win a statewide election, especially a presidential election which has not happened in 26 years. If you look at the numbers you have roughly 2 million voters in both Philadelphia and Allegeheny counties of which about 80% will religiously vote democrat and that’s being generous. In terms of the “collar counties” that ring both you’re looking at roughly 2.5 million voters. The problem is the vote in these counties is roughly split and therein lies the problem. There isn’t enough population in the rest of the Commonwealth to make up for that difference. The key is winning a greater share of the collars because without it you’re done.
I initially thought the Buckeyes would follow their governor in supporting Mrs. Bill. What happened?
Thanks for explaining the PA vote. It’s the lady voters in the suburbs who can rescue Mrs. Bill.
The Pittsburgh region is not a problem.
The problem is strictly Philadelphia. All the enormous fraud that comes out of that county is very difficult to overcome.
I wish Pennsylvania could get its own hurricane Katrina to thin out the fraud. Or give Filthadelphia to New Jersey.
She’s still blanketing OH with ads. That doesn’t sound like a pull out to me.
Karma is a b!tch....LOL
are the ad buys there in order to payoff (payola) to the establishment media for favorable coverage?
look at PBS, they extort money from corporations for “hands off” bribery.
Kasich made a deal with the devil (eGOP), started to believe his own press clippings and lost all integrety and Honor. He’s a smart man who turned Ohio around but a more useful idiot for the republican donor class.
He is a longtime buddy of Hillary Clinton.
When Strickland was a congressman, he was the go-to guy for the "hunting" photo opportunities. In 2004, John Kerry "got hisself one of them huntin' licenses" to go out with Ted Strickland for the day.
Since he doesn't represent a rural-ish district in SE Ohio anymore, Strickland has now dropped the 2nd amendment pretense and reverted to the default democrat position on gun grabbing.
