you think they need to fund her to utilize that to their advantage? they are TOTALLY holding her up as the one to beat because they know they can! hell, they were talking about the "unbeatable hillary" before anyone even officially announced their candidacy. they don't need to fund her, they just need their pundits to toll her virtues as the "one to beat" and it will rally all the right-wingers to the cause. unfortunately, i see another republican victory.
Sadly, the way our fucked up primary system works, rural voters in Iowa who likely don't know that it's sanity to wipe their asses after using the outhouse and bumpkins in New Hampshire who spend their days making maple syrup and pronouncing words funny essentially pick the president.
hence the electoral college. and that served us SOOOOO well two elections ago
I had class last night and that debate was on campus. Luckily we got out of class way early so I didn't have to fight the traffic.
One of the guys I work with says he is a Democrat, but the way things are going he seriously believes the party is out to prove that they can lose any election. He says he is pretty sure that this will be his last election as a registered democrat.
