I do not understand how the Presidential race started now. Someone help to explain this- including how the decision was made and by whom.

IIRC, it started in the early 90's with the Clintonesque tactic of an "endless campaign". Perhaps even before that, as the Clinton machine tested and perfected this tactic while still in Arkansas. The then 'new' 24/7 cable news media latched on to it because they needed material and content to show for the growing audience of news junkies (and TV couch potatoes) which was burgeoning all around. It just snowballed from there, and voila! the media became a 24/7/365 poliical campaign.

I blame Crossfire for all this !!! LOL

Don't forget he also changed the rules so his big contributor Loral could sell satellite technology to the Chinese. Technology the Chi-coms are now using to blast satellites out of the sky.

IIRC, it was satellite launching technology. The problem was in the missiles themselves, with violent vibrations, IIRC, and the folks from Loral and Hughes helped them fix it.

Clintons have a lot of dirt on many people, but Bill has been out of office for over 6 years now. Their files are getting old and they can't order the CIA and FBI to give them whatever they want anymore. There is alot of new blood that they can't blackmail so easily.

I wouldn't bet on it. When Hillary left the White House, those 900 files were just the tip of the iceberg. I'm virtually certain that she had all the important files on everybody.

Among other things, she has the ability to blackmail a number of operatives at top levels of the FBI and the CIA, plus a lot of obvious sympathizers in those agencies. The folks who have been leaking secrets to the New York Times will have no scruples about leaking secrets to hillary, especially those she has blackmail handles on already. Plus the threat of what she'll do if and when she gets back into the White House.

The most shocking thing about this article is that Bill Clinton actually gave a pass to a sleazy pardon! I'm really surprised he said no to freeing an American Indian double FBI murderer.

Get out the popcorn! I can't wait to find out the next thing that's going to stick to the bottom of their shoes!

Good point. I has been my observation that the Clinton "political genius" was based on fear and intimidation, not affection or brilliance. Becoming a "Friend of Bill" was a form of "life insurance."

Lacking the ability to abuse government power to hurt people, they are finding out that payback is a b(tch.

One reason some of the libs hate George Bush is they see a decent man replacing their pigly scum bag.

I think this is the 9/10s of the iceberg beneath the sea level generating the BDS. They have known since 2000 that GW is ten times the man their weak and weaselly BillyBoy ever was or ever will be. Every day W spends in office is a silent but stern rebuke to their collective lack of character, degenerate morals, compromised integrity.

They want to get donors and get organiztions for the ground game in the early primaries, IMHO.

Yes. I agree with you that part of the Democrat machine is to make this President much worse than Pres. Clinton so they have another Republcan that is so horrible to boost the Dems up.

It is amazing to me how much the eyes of a person reveal about a person, either one on one, or in a photograph. In this photo even though Hillary appears to be passionately making a point, in her speech, It's pretty clear to me she is reading a teleprompter, and concentrating on what it is she is reading. All the other stuff going on, is just acting, and bad acting at that. And they said Ronald Reagan was just a "B" movie actor. HA!!!

You are exactly right. The left can't stand being upstaged.

I think I could find plenty of horses who'd send her some not so friendly fire . . . and maybe some burro's too.
