Hillary is outdone in first major Iowa test as Bernie Sanders calls for a 'revolution'

Hillary is outdone in first major Iowa test as Bernie Sanders calls for a 'revolution' and Martin O'Malley has some Clinton partisans on their feet – and she talks mostly about HERSELF

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, two emotionally potent politicians determined to run far to the left of former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, outshined her Friday night during the Democratic presidential field's first big 'cattle-call' event.

Following Clinton, who spoke in sharp cadence about herself and her family's story, the two men wowed a crowd of more than 1,300 with powerful appeals to progressives.

Clinton entered the presidential race as the presumptive Democratic nominee, but she has at least two formidable foes who exceeded her ovations and grew their following on Friday in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

Friday night marked a first for Democrats in the 2016 race for the presidency: a 'cattle call' audition where every declared candidate spoke to a large audience in an early primary state on the same night.

The left had their revolution/Bolshevik coup in 2008; I can’t see working Americans having much stomach for four more years of this economic paralysis/stagnation. How long can people watch the economic deterioration? Even gibsmedats are feeling it; their ghettoes are a shambles and outside of redistributing welfare money (which in itself is devalued to pay for the massive growth of the program) there are no new goodies coming their way - just bullets, drugs, and more violent crime.

The base of the Democrat party is absolutely, totally Communist. These are the people who would, if they could, have the government fire-bomb all Christian churches. (And the churches are worried about their tax-exemption.) There are many, many grassroots Democrats who WOULD send all Christians and believing Jews to gas chambers. The vast majority of Democrats have absolutely no problem with partial-birth abortion and selling of baby bodyparts. And those who DO have a problem with it will not change their vote.

The evil that is the Democrat party is unfathomable by non-Satan-worshiping Americans.

This evil has grown up in this country because Antonio Gramsci and the rest of the cultural Marxists HAD A PLAN and executed it, and the Right had NO PLAN.

Iowa Democrats rejected Hillary in 2008 too. She finished THIRD behind BO and John Edwards. John Edwards?

You would think Hillary would have done well at a, “cattle call” what with her incredible success in cattle futures.

I think she’s the victim of a vast left wing conspiracy!

What will that get them? Bill Gates has been sending free laptops to Africa for years...

People who want bling and flashy cars aren’t content with free wi-fi any more than they would be with free books...

So
You are saying his black base is abandoning him because he is not supplying bling and flashy cars ?

The blacks at my job abandoned him a long time ago (but can’t publicly admit it), but this is about Sanders & Hillary. This isn’t even just about blacks themselves, but the permanently-dependent underclass (of all colors). They had their revolution, it still drags on, and they are worse off than before. The millions of new unemployed ensure that the unemployable will NEVER get a job (due to the competition), they will never be hired by anyone willing to train them (again, because of the number of more-qualified idled workers), so they sit and watch waves of foreigners come in and leave them on the bottom rung of the socio-economic ladder. The foreigners themselves may be part of the leftist rabble initially, but their children probably won’t be - they want more, and often will work for it. We have a much more prominent Hispanic middle class than a black one for this very reason.

How far we have come. That a man with an “S” after his name is considered a viable candidate for president.
