the only saving grace for them is they fucking hate hilary's guts. I think it's even worse than their hate for obama... we just haven't been hearing as much hate because she's in the background atm. this is another one of those elections where you may have an "anyone but hillary" vibe going on.

Susanna Martinez might make a good candidate for the republicans:
she probably has a lot of middle-ling appeal.

Off the top of my head:
Jerry Brown (D) beat Meg Whitman (R) for Governor of California
(the Republicans also ran Carly Fiorina vs. Barbara Boxer)
Harry Reid (D) beat Sharron Angle (R) for Senate
Chris Murphy (D) beat Linda McMahon (R) for Senate
Chris Coons (D) beat Christine O'Donnell (R) for Senate
and within your own party you choose Obama over Hillary
Now why wouldn't the Democrats get behind any of these women?

Money has a lot to do with it. I love politics and I love auto racing...but both are an excellent way to blow through an assload of money in a short period of time.

Could it be that policy reasons have something to bear perhaps? Sharon Angle was extremely conservative. And lots of dems got behind Hillary. I need her speak here in Columbus and she was very popular...that was back in 2008.
in case you haven't noticed, this, among other posts is why you were invited to the most elite club on JPP. major clutch posts.

I could be very wrong on this but I thought the hate Hillary vibe dropped some once Bill left office. In the Senate Hillary seemed far more pragmatic and worked with Republicans. I'm not implying in any way that Republicans now love her etc. nor am I saying they won't go after her if she is the nominee (just as they would whoever the nominee is) but I thought the level of hate dropped.

I am very saddened at how angry and partisan out whole country has gotten. I was in elementary school when Watergate happened...hit me like a load of bricks, as my family enjoyed talking about politics. We are more angry and More divided now than in 1973, methinks.
christine o'donnell, lol, yeah, I love crazy!
those women are Republicans who most likely vote agsinst women's issues!
Absolutely we are more divided!

have you started to learn why we have thread bans on here yet?
Could we extend that to reproduction bans? I think the human gene pool would be improved were we to give Big Money and Ishmael a forcer vasectomy.
Lets do an equation:
(Pool of women in republican party) - (women not very high up in the party) - (women that have very little national name recognition and thus not even been thought of) - (women that would be generally unelectable in a national) - (women that would end up being primaried out because they are likely more liberal than a random sampling of republican men) = hardly anyone.
it's not sexist if there aren't a lot of good choices or big sample sizes.
besides sometimes women are just better off making sandwiches.

And what will be interesting to see is how this plays out in republican voting. As I said in my intro, I have three daughters, ages 23 17 and almost 13. 12 year old and 23 year old are very openly Christian... And have lots of friends over to the house. LOTS of young christian woman are fiscal conservatives but socially more liberal on issues such as gay rights and abortion rights.
I have known some of their friends since the girls were infants...its a very interesting process to watch their thinking evolve over the years. It will be even more interesting to see how this trend plays out in future elections.

The REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED LEGISLATURE in Virginia approved forcing women who wants an abortion to undergo a vaginal ultrasound.
In other words, women seeking an abortion in Virginia will be forcibly penetrated for no medical reason.
One example of Republican SEXISM as requested...I know you'll find some BS excuse to deny what's right in front of you, but then you aren't the sharpest knife in the drawer, are you?

There's a reason for it. Tell us what the reason is.
