The Republican Party dies. The olds are eliminated by death panels and those who remain are rounded up and put in FEMA camps.
Oddly enough, this seems like your average post.

Chances are, she probably wouldn't usher in a New Great Depression, but people probably thought the same of Hoover at the time.

Your scare mongering is laughable and has no place in serious political discussion.

Logic is not a requirement for anti-Hillary circlejerks.
I'm surprised you even recognize logic, judging by your own equally egregious (and less entertaining/flamboyant) posts about Hillary. I mean, for God sakes, your whole existence on this forum is defending Hillary to the death. If you’re that confident of victory in 2016, why do you even bother with the idiots like me?

Jeb will be out of office for eighteen years in 2024, unless he is elected to the Senate in 2018, but will be 71. Hillary Clinton will be 69 in 2016. I don’t see how you think Hillary isn’t too old, but it didn’t seem to be a problem for you. This was your response to the questions of Hillary being too old.

I'm more worried about Christie's obesity.

Then of course there is this lovely exchange from this very thread in which you completely ignore Mecha’s point and continue to attack him for making “broad comparisons”, when in reality he was simply telling a political fable about why it’s dangerous to make assumptions about candidates.



50-state landslide as Hillary Clinton puts a stake in the heart of the Republican Party, solves the recession and all future recessions, and literally ushers in the era of world peace.

Yes I'm sure that Hoover, I mean Hillary, will solve all of our problems and bring unlimited prosperity.

You guys are really trying to compare Hillary and Hoover now? Lol

I can smell the desperation. It's only a matter of time before we get "Hillary = Hitler!" comparisons.

As for the topic at hand: it really depends on how the GOP deals with their loss in 2016. For example, in 2012 we heard all about how they needed an "autopsy", to reach out to minorities, and to moderate their positions to better fit the electorate. However, after a few months, this all went into the trashcan in favor of pandering to Tea Partiers and hoping for "missing whites" to put them over the top. If they follow a similar pattern after 2016, the Democrat, whether it be Hillary running for re-election or someone else, will be a huge favorite. Every day demographics are getting less favorable for the GOP, and I think by 2020 we will be at critical mass for their ultimatum: change or die.

On the other hand, if they DO get out of radical right wing fantasy land and marginalize the Tea Partiers, they'd be in good shape simply because of Democratic fatigue.

The comparisons are natural.

Hoover was considered a super invincible giant of a man who could lead the nation to prosperity and that there would be a chicken in every pot.  We all know the story behind that.

I will not be a seer or a prophet here, but I must urge caution at least to forum Democrats who are convinced that Queen Hillary will be an automatic super FF who will bring a reign of a thousand years to the Democratic Party.  Chances are, she probably wouldn't usher in a New Great Depression, but people probably thought the same of Hoover at the time.

The point is, the voters should be asking serious questions about Hillary not only as a candidate, but as a possible future President.  Every candidate running deserves a degree of skepticism and review and we shouldn't foist a candidate upon the nation who might possibly have a very dangerous mentality on how to run things just based off of what the general public populace thinks without challenge or inquiry.

But of course, a dumbfuck like yourself wouldn't understand such concepts.

I'm pretty sure the dumb one is the person who is drawing overly broad comparisons between people from the current day and people from a century ago and acting as if they're equivalent. You realize it's ridiculously easy to apply the same "Hillary = Hoover!" comparison to pretty much EVERY presidential candidate, right? In fact, your entire basis for comparing them fits the Republican idolization of Reagan much more than it fits the Democratic Party's attitude toward Hillary.
   
I could come up with plenty of posts where you make unsubstantiated claims about how the Clinton Presidency is inevitable, much like it was in 2005. But I rather not continue this he said/she said debate. It’s pointless, and your hardly the worst of the bunch (Adam, AngryGreatness, Invisible Obama, etc really take the Hillary hackishness to extremes).

And don’t get me wrong, the True Leftist circle jerk is annoying, and I love your arguments about guns, marijuana legalization, and gay rights being more important than the “class revolution”, but you’re ignoring your own groups Hillary 2016/GOP is doomed forever/MSNBC circle jerk that is equally tedious.
