People vote against, not for, candidates

the hilarity here is that a closet democrat running as a bigoted republican and a war-mongering republican running as a progressive.

Well, as someone said in this or another thread, words are imprecise, no matter how hard we try to make them that way. I think the broad stroke of "closet democrat" doesn't fit the man. Nothing he's (said that he) stood for fits the modern Democratic Party.

I say he's an opportunist who is full of himself.

That leaves the remark about Hillary. That tradition goes back to Johnson: trying to be "tough" so the GOP can't complain or criticize.

So . . . about this "war-mongering." She voted for Bush's Iraq War. True.

She was also the Senator from New York, which was still coming down from its panic and chicken-little syndrome after the 911 disaster.

Bush lied about his intent to all of us, the whole country.
