Fortunately, people are noticing her aversion to the truth. Unfortunately, this usually doesn’t matter to conservative voters.

Another reason I’ve gone off her – the more I find out about her policy positions, the less I like her.

I worry a lot more about people like her who have extreme views but can still try and come across as moderate, as opposed to someone like Trump who you know isn’t a moderate.

Yes

Thirded!

It is scary, and I suspect Fiorina will be on the Worry page before the election is held. The only amelioration I can offer is that the candidates are dragging themselves so far to the right for the primary, they won’t be able to make it back far enough towards the centre to succeed in the general election.

At the moment though, the Dems don’t have much to offer. The suspicion of Socialism in your country is such that I doubt Sanders can win a general election, and Clinton has really screwed up on the email thing. It’s been getting wall-to-wall coverage on Fox for weeks. They know the only way to win is to tear her down.

If she looks like she could falter, Biden will get in to give the Republicans an alternative they can stomach.

As I said, personally I don’t like what she has to say, I’m just remarking on how well and successfully she says it.

I mostly wrote this post on Friday, and I’ve since seen a new ad she’s put out. It takes the lie about the aborted foetus a step further, actually showing it in the ad. Dishonesty aside, it’s an extremely powerful ad. I imagine it will play appeal strongly to her constituency, most of whom won’t care about the nuances of whether it’s real or not.

Yeah, she was – that’s what I was referring to – obviously not very eloquently! 🙂

To me Carson is one of those people who says things in such a nice way, and you can get so hypnotised by the tone that you don’t realize just what he’s saying. That’s about the only explanation I can come up with anyway for why someone who talks so much rubbish is so revered. Everyone, on both sides of the aisle, likes him!
