Ok, let's stick to the script.

Let's all say it with enthusiasm! (Because it wouldn't seem to exist otherwise?)
Shilling’s plea for enthusiasm is similar to one made by former presidential candidate Jeb Bush at a campaign event in New Hampshire in February, when Bush asked the crowd to “please clap.”

Probably because they are not enthusiastic about Hillary. Who would be?
Now here's enthusiasm. Even a little bird got wound up in it too.

That angry old fart is no more likable than Hillary, he’s just giving more of the store away than she is.

More like realistic view.
Greed and fear...that's what gets people excited, and to the polls.

My only point was that Bernie's supporters seem far more excited than Hillary's supporters, since TB brought it up with yet another slam Hillary thread.
Speaking of Hillary, this should make TB and woody start worrying.

Won't make my head explode as before long Hillary may be wearing prison orange:
The FBI is ready to indict Hillary Clinton and if its recommendation isn't followed by the U.S. attorney general, the agency's investigators plan to blow the whistle and go public with their findings, former U.S. House Majority leader Tom DeLay tells Newsmax TV.

Well, you may
not get your fantasy of Hillary as president wearing an orange-striped suit if things keep going the way they're going as of late. Her shine is starting to fade.

The sample sizes in those polls are very small. I wouldn't use them as measure of anything. Just saying.

Here's the thing. The FBI doesn't tell anyone they're going to be indicted at x time. They just do it. Otherwise, people would do a runner.

Tom DeLay has been so far outside the political loop for a decade as to make his assertions meaningless. Once again, of course, I point out that no one on this board has ever supported Hillary.

Another kill the messenger defense. If you would of read the links you would of read this:
Team Hillary is already admitting this will likely happen

The fact you call her an old witch, and that every right wing pundit out there keeps railing against her nearly every day and goes on to revile her as a dangerous person without any redeeming qualities as a future leader pretty much validates the "right wing conspiracy theory".

the left at least deals with reality and not with made up 'scandals'. You see, the issue, should she get the nomination(no sure thing), is that the Clinton criticism has LONG ago veered into the Boy That Cries Wolf problem. The entire nation has heard the nonsense from Vince Foster to Bengazi, and not a single thing has been shown to actually be true. Any future 'scandals' at this point sound pretty bogus to the voters, and generally get ignored.

And the vast left wing conspiracy calling Trump a orange baboon or the Rep. presidential field as a clown car...differs how?

So I suppose Whitewater and travel gate were made up. Or the Bosnia sniper fire comment was not false. Or missing FBI files suddenly showing up. Please don't think of us here as blinded by your astute observations

Left-wing conspiracy? Trump is disliked globally across the political spectrum. Hardly a "conspiracy." Do you know what the word conspiracy means?

There is definitely a conspiracy to paint all of Trump’s supporters as bigots and xenophobes, while completely downplaying most of the other reasons for his support.

You do know a conspiracy is not limited to geographic regions? While many may dislike him it is the left and their machine that paints him with derogatory symbolism. The conspiracy also involves leftist operatives acting like they come from the right such as the guy who led the charge for open carry of firearm at the Cleveland convention:

care to cite references for this assertion? Most of the left views him as a joke. They aren't, in any way that I can see, painting him(yet) with any sort of serious conspiratorial attacks. Let him be nominated.......

no one pretended that the original petition didn't come from opponents of the GOP. They were hoping to show how readily the right would latch onto a really dumb idea. Worked, I suppose......

Right, and it was such a big joke sounding set-up that the secret service took it seriously. Go back to your Dem. Underground board where you can make silly statements and the idiots there will believe you.

they took it seriously when around 40,000 wingnuts took it seriously enough to sign it, and some even started to promote it on social media. It was hilarious, frankly, and a sad commentary on the lot of them. As I said early on, the Secret Service would put the kibosh on the whole idea, and they did.
Don't tell me about the Trump virtues and leadership and then call anything or anyone 'silly' or 'idiots' without waiting to let the laughter of your readers subside.......
geez-o-pete!

Once again...nice spin. Tell me, how do you know a large number of those "wingnuts" weren't dems also? Unless you can prove they were conservatives posting, I'll just go with the whole thing being another Dem dirty tricks program. Keeping posting at the D.U.M.B. as I'm sure they love you there.

oh, and back to the original topic. Hillary is starting to get that 'tight', scared look about her on stage. She got the same look earlier in the Obama campaign, but I still say not to count Bernie out. He made up 10 percent on her in 10 days in Wisconsin, and if he can go for the jugular in New York State, and beat her by ANY margin, Clinton is in REAL trouble......despite CNN campaigning hard for her.

Take this as you will, Rush Limbaugh (not him but his tech staff) traced back 1000's of comments generated by something he said and found all of those comments were generated by just 7 individuals. I'll let the tech guys here verify if this is possible (as to tracing back)

I think it is called "Losing her cool". It looks like her fear may be that Bernie is taking the gloves off and won't be Mr Nice Guy. I'm just wondering how adult the Dem debates will look in the future. And why are Bernie and Hillary fearful of having fox news host a debate ?

I love when her flacks demand that he back off. It's a freaking primary, and they don't wish Bernie to be 'too harsh'. That's fear talking.

I am not aware of Fox offering, and certainly no fear on Bernies part. As for the adult part, there is no way you'd see those two individuals EVER, REMOTELY, approach what passed for debate from the GOP this season. I was down in VA last week, sitting with the grandkids in the little restaurant in town and talking to some very conservative locals, mostly older than me. They had to admit, whilst hating Obama and Hillary and not comprehending Sanders in the least, that the Republicans had been an embarrassment from late last year forward. To a man, they wrote the coming General election off as a Dem win, and were talking about saving down-ballot seats.
