Is Trump actually running ads in FL now? All I've seen are NRA ads for Trump.

"You're racist, sexist, homophobic, and Islamophobic, right? Well Hillary Clinton called you deplorable! Vote Trump!"

If I were an undecided voter and I saw this ad it would turn me off Trump so fast, because it's basically saying "you're with us or against us" only the "us" is "tens of millions" of blatantly bigoted people, and then at the end just for good measure Donald Trump approves the message.

Axelrod's not wrong on this. By not revealing her pneumonia, Hillary ended up creating a more damaging situation for herself than if she had just revealed it to begin with.

Would they be voting for Clinton in the first place? Is this ad aimed at getting new voters on the Trump train or securing his base? Because if I'm an undecided, I'm not sure that this does it (Do I want to be lumped in with loonies?).

Yeah the point of the spot is to trigger white people that are racist but are really offended when they are called racist. Of course those people are mostly voting Trump but I could see some moderates saying "This Hillary has insulted me all I want is voter ID, a focus on legal immigration, and gay people to stop shoving their penises in my face."

That's dumb bullshit thinking though. If she tells everyone on Friday she has pneumonia, they'd still spend a whole cycle being idiotic about it and asking how long she'd had it. He knows better and he knows if Obama had pneumonia on the trail, they wouldn't have said word one either unless they were forced to do it.

Again, it was a roll of the dice. If she hadn't had an incident on Sunday, it would have been the right call. Obviously with hindsight it was the wrong one, but the best outcome (that they were going for) was that they never had to say she was sick at all.

Yeah, they tend to not consider themselves racist because they don't literally belong to the KKK and not homophobic because they don't want gay people beheaded. Despite wanting gay people to be invisible and private discrimination against black people to be legal. So they take being called racist or homophobic as an insult rather than as an opportunity for self-improvement.

There's probably quite a few wavering Democrat voters that are pretty racist and homophobic but vote Democrat because they like unions and healthcare. Trump wants to grab them.

And the campaign is already giving the media the contrition they feel they're deserved, because political journalists are the dumbest, most entitled pricks on the planet.

I enjoyed it and think it's basically correct, but Tom Nichols is your typical sort of Republican National Security Hawk (he's been vocally opposed to Trump and has said he would vote for HC if he lived in a swing state, but he also strongly dislikes her so make of that what you will) and therefore the sort of people actually inclined to defend Assange (far left and far right cranks) won't pay it any heed. Him trashing on Snowden a bit is likely to turn some people off as well.

Y'all ready for some hardcore equivocating? Both sides have become more extreme! Trump is more centrist than previous Republican nominees on the whole! Oh, you want to see my data?

quote:

Across all five issues, the average distance between Democratic and Republican core partisans increased by almost one-third between 1980 and 2012, from 26 points to 34 points on a 100-point scale. On average, the Democratic base moved 1.5 points further to the left of swing voters, while the Republican base moved 6.5 points further to the right.

I had someone compare Hillary and Bernie as follows: "Hillary asks for gas money, Bernie gives you a ride for free."

Clearly they hadn't seen the tax plans, but alas.

Also, remember that stuff in Philly where Romney got 0 votes in some area? The Philly GOP head is sick of hearing of that:

I'm not a big fan of him either, especially since he's now got pretty questionable connections with Russia and China, but he's still a darling among some on the left (and in libertarian circles, presumably).

I think Bernie takes a small portion of blame for the way in which he ended his campaign by stubbornly holding on and casting doubt on the process but I think it has more to do with a generation of people who only know Hillary from the Republican attack bullshit, clouding their perception of her and, in general, a generation that views people like her with a great deal of contempt.
