Never underestimate the Clinton machine.

What those threads from DU tell us is that if the election results ain’t what they want, it’s because somebody cheated. Even if it’s another Democrat, just not the preferred Democrat.

Alright Bubba. Admit it. You only posted that picture because the girl on the right has a nice chest.

I just noticed how excited she was. Either from the win or from just standing by Hillary.

So is it really the younger generations fault that they don't know about politics? I mean really, it's you guys who are supposed to teach politics in school and you guys run news networks. The news reporters in your day talked about things that were relevant, but yet what WE get to see is Anna Nicole Smith's death and how much of a mess Brittany Spears is, and don't forget which hollywood stars are picking up trannys and those who are with child.

America has a bad case of A.D.D. Don't pin all the blame of the lack of political knowledge on the youngsters.

You are VERY VERY correct grasshopper. It's ultimately the youngsters fault (i'm a person that believes in individual responsibility and not blame others) BUT...teens are force fed what you are talking about...Anna Nicole, Brittney, American Idol...and few are fortunate enough to have parents that know enough or care enough to steer them towards something a little more fullfilling. How many 18 year olds pick up a USA today or know what's going on in the world? When I was 18 I didn't. Times haven't changed in that aspect and I believe that more young adults are interested in politics but don't know what they are really voting for...just my opinion.

I think what you are looking at, is from the chill of standing that close to Mrs. Clinton. We’ve all heard how cold and calculating she is, right?
