Ginsburg didnt retire in 2014, when Obama had the Senate, due to the fact, she expected Hilary to be elected as Prez. That's what Bill Clinton told Ginsburg
She miscalculated . Also, she expected Kennedy to retire and it would have been 6 to 3 Liberal than reversed
90-95% of problems Dems have had over the past 30 years can be directly attributed to Bill and Hillary Clinton. They are such a massive metastatic cancer.
LOL
Single dumbest thing I’ve ever read on this site, which is really saying something.
Bill Clinton saved the Democratic Party. Three elections in a row, Dems not only lost but were slaughtered in landslides. The party was on the verge of oblivion at the presidential level. Bill broke through and won, won big, and became a great and popular president in his own right. How the hell could he have possibly predicted a Supreme Court justice he nominated would get cancer and not retire early enough decades later, under the first black president but before Donald Trump became president? The things people blame the Clintons for are ridiculous. It’s like “Thanks, Obama” times 1000.
Bill Clinton saved the PRESIDENTIAL Democratic Party by enabling it to win. I can't believe that the bulk of the Talk Elections Left would approve today of what he actually did to bring this about.
Bill Clinton was one of the liberal politicians who, during the 1980s, was aware that the Democratic Party was shooting itself in the foot by nominating unappealing candidates who had the sort of baggage that handicapped them (and the party) every four years. Presidential years were elections that Democratic pols dreaded because it meant being saddled to an unpopular Presidential candidate. Bill Clinton had some awareness of how the Democratic Party had become disconnected from people whom it purported to care about; specifically, working class people. And he won a number of them back; he was the last Democrat to carry Democratic KY and Democratic MO. He carried LA with 51% of the vote in 1996.
That he ultimately went the identity politics route was his undoing. Identity politics enabled the Democrats to become competitive Presidentially, while being buried in state legislatures, Congressional Districting, and in non-urban local politics the nation over. Clinton abandoned the working class strategies while President; today, the white working class is a Republican constituency (for better or worse), and that's Clinton's doing. The Clintons created a majority (more or less) at the expense of consensus. That's not a good thing.
