You guys have commented on the strategy aspects of this but what I found most interesting was this bit:
Got me thinking about that last Town Hall where the Rabbi asked her about balancing ego with humility:
In which she responded:
So if she does decide to turn over her staff, criticize female voters and continue to deflect questions on Wall. St, is she really balancing her ego with humility? I believe there's always the option to grow your soul but I don't know if there's always time. At least not while under constant scrutiny of the public eye during a Presidential Campaign.
Will be interesting to see how her campaign plays out.

I would say Sanders is pretty left while Hillary is center leaning right. I drew a quick diagram of how the US sees it:

That is not even close to how the US sees it. You do realize that she has a more liberal senate record than Obama right? That her and Bernie voted exactly the same way 93% of the time?

I would consider Hillary to Obama's left if I were being totally honest.
Trump to Clinton's left lol give me a fucking break

Not only isn't he racist, he's practically Obama!
I don't know shit.
And as fa as Im concerned, the thread is called "PoliGAF" which is is shortened for "PoliticsGAF" which I see in my point of view as a thread you can discuss politics in general and not just American politics.
Norway is a country you know. Same with Denmark. It is possible to compare politics between countries.

Most countries/regions have their own PoliThread - I've seen UKPoligaf, AusPoligaf, CanadaPoligaf, and Germany Poligaf at various different points. This one probably should be called USPoligaf for consistencies' sake, but it's not a general political thread. Which region do you want to discuss?

Bill: " I'm the only president to expand the middle class and reserve the effect of trickle down in the last 40 years. (Bernie sanders even highlighted this in one of his YouTube videos) Both Supreme Court justices I and president Obama appointed voted against Citizens United and the ones Hillary appoints will work to over turn it".
I think that comes off as better than deflecting Sanders supporters saying they aren't informed and it's unrealistic to ask for the things they want. Make the case of why they have been there before and how they've always focused on the economy and worked against trickle down rather than turning this into the "no we can't" campaign.

Trying to accurately place Trump in a graph with two axes is already hard enough. To do it in a single axis is folly.
Wait Bernie Sanders isn't running for president of Sweden?!

2016 New Hampshire Republican Presidential Primary - Trump 28%, Kasich 17% (Gravis Marketing/One America News 2/7)
1) 2016 New Hampshire Republican Presidential Primary
Asked of 705 likely voters - republican
Jeb Bush (R) 14%
Ben Carson (R) 3%
Chris Christie (R) 6%
Ted Cruz (R) 11%
Carly Fiorina (R) 5%
John Kasich (R) 17%

Donald Trump (R) 28%
Excellent. EXCELLENT. Rubio in 3rd or lower would be so amazing. I still think he squeaks out 2nd, but it won't matter.
Don't love Trump under 30. But still, yeah.

Of course we can compare politics between countries, but that's often like comparing apples to airplanes. Hillary is a progressive within the political psyche of the country she wants to lead. While I prefer that other nations aren't embarrassed by us a la Bush, we have to judge candidates based on electability within our country.

This is true. Saying Norway sees Hillary as right wing is in many purposes irrelevant and pointless as this thread is dominated by Americans and 99% about American politics. In this case about how Hillary is a progressive or not, it matters little to what Norway thinks. People are talking about it in the US sense.
If this is US politics thread, then why the hell not call it that?
I want to discuss general politics, not region based.
because its well establish that we are referring to US Elections.

This is tag fishing. Has to be.
They just meant that the labels we apply to politicians have national context. Hillary is a progressive in the American context.
Im really sad i did not follow this thread, I just jumped in by reading "PoliGAF".
Should I call it "Politics in General GAF thread" or something?

Rubio is repeating his line on msnbc AGAIN. Just changed Obama "he knows what he's doing" to "it's not an accident", when asked about why he repeated himself during the debate.

I'm curious about how much trouble Cruz got in for telling his staff to spread misinformation about Carson dropping out.
It's not like everyone who knows Cruz could hate him more than they already do.
EDIT: I'm probably even more disgusted by the check thing he's doing now, that's some seriously nasty shit.

Why are we giving Gravis any credence? Have you seen how badly they did in Iowa, on both sides of the aisle?

Nothing of consequence, but Trump and others need to play it as establishment politics and how Cruz isn't anti-establishment.
why would he use Gravis? Gravis is a pretty weak pollster.

I don't think anyone would willingly or knowingly hire Gravis to do anything. Although, it's Kasich, so maybe?

Am I going crazy or did another campaign do that same "check enclosed" trick as Cruz? I swear I remember something like that happening.

I'm partial to GeoPoliGaf
iirc there's like... five peeps interested in that, tops. Legit poli junkies are hard to come by.
That makes it sound like it's Geopolitics, which is different than what he's talking about.
It's a poll commissioned by a SuperPAC. They may have commissioned several polls, and leaked the one that looked the best for their candidate.

I look forward to our detailed discussion of the decline of Turkic pan-nationalism in favour of Islamism as a populist movement in Kyrgyzstan following the association of socialism with the dictatorship.

You coulda just said that you want to discuss how huge an asshat erdogan is, yknow.
He's a pretty big asshat from what I remember.

I mean, on the one hand he's an enormous asshat, on the other hand he tamed the Turkish military and the prospect of a coup against the Turkish democracy is lower than ever before. Besides, at least it's not Bahçeli; these things are relative.
