Previously, I preferred Barack Obama to win the Democratic nomination.  Then I realised that he would stand a better chance of getting things done than Hillary Clinton.  Now I prefer Clinton because she is such a polarising figure that a revolt would be possible.  It would not shock me if her approval ratings were at 20-30% for the majority of her presidency.  Enough see her as blatantly evil enough to have a revolution if too many bad things happen.

Again I do not think that Hillary Clinton would make a good president, or any other candidate except for Ron Paul.  In fact all of them would make horrible presidents.

Well, you certainly still have the audacity of hope.

I think this post would be better categorized as "the hope of audacity."

A revolt, you say? If we're not installing a pseudo-Anarchist Zoroastrian theocracy, I want no part of it.

If the citizenry of the United States lets George W. Bush get off without open revolution, than I sincerely doubt we'd rouse ourselves up off the couch to revolt against Hillary and Bill.
