@hankfrackett@realDarkElation@Chris_H_Politic LOL. Hillary never became President. It's silly making the assumption she would have done something equivalent to the horrendous decison by doubling down in Vietnam as LBJ did. I commend what he did for civil rights. But his legacy will forever be marred by that war of choice.
@nikicaga Again. If the Republicans were really worried. The NRSC would be spending more in Texas. They're not. If the Democrats were smelling blood. The DSCC would be spending more in Texas. They're not. I don't believe that Texas is as competitive as the polls say it is.
@hankfrackett@realDarkElation@Chris_H_Politic I get what your saying. I just don't count that. I'm talking about a candidate who has NEVER been president. Not even a little bit - who is running for the office. If we're talking about LBJ before JFK got shot. Who is more qualified? Him or Hillary. I'd go with her. IMO
@layneashley222 All in all, it was an effective video from Rogers. He sees a divide and he's going to try to take advantage of it. Whether it will work, we'll see. But it's all politics 101 stuff. Not sure why I'm seeing terminally online leftists freaking out over it. It's pretty mild stuff.
@hankfrackett@realDarkElation@Chris_H_Politic You make a fair point on HW Bush. But in terms of experience in foreign relations, input on policy, and advising the president? I put Hillary ahead of LBJ and Nixon (before they became President) in terms of most qualified to be president.
@hankfrackett@realDarkElation@Chris_H_Politic LOL. Not really. Again. LBJ and JFK relationship or lack of is well documented. JFK's inner circle distrusted and frequently marginalized LBJ. RFK and LBJ had deep animosity for one another. While Obama and Clinton worked extremely well together and became fond of each other.
@ettingermentum We've seen this with Beto though. If polling is true. Why isn't the NRSC or the DSCC spending heavily in Texas? The fact neither of them are, shows they're both seeing the same internal numbers. Texas is a ruby red state, it will most likely be a republican hold.
@IAPolls2022 If that is the case. Why isn't the NRSC or the DSCC spending heavily in Texas? The fact neither of them are, shows they're both seeing the same internal numbers. Texas is a ruby red state, it will most likely be a republican hold.
@Midshevik@HasanabiProd Yes. Socialists and Marxists are really taking to the streets. When is the revolution suppose to come? Oh that's right, it won't because that actually requires you folks to log off and actually leave your parents house.
@polipeony Ah yes, the "this is the year that Texas will turn blue" Narrative. The state is ruby red for a reason. There are tremendous demographic challenges that every Dem candidate has to overcome to win statewide. Those don't go away even in blue wave election years.
@Midshevik@HasanabiProd Not really. He's wrong and naive. What's especially laughable is that Jon Stewart expected outgoing GOP senators to stand up to Trump? For a guy who is 66 years old, it seems like he was born yesterday
@DerekPederson3 Unless either the NRSC or DSCC are going to be spending big into this race. I'm not convinced by any of these polls. Especially what happened in Michigan.
