dude. mind your image sizes. that's either stupid, lazy, or just plain rude.

They should resize to 503xwhatever it takes to retain the image's aspect ratio. Whenever you click this thread, that picture of Hilldawg is indeed haunting, though.

. . . or, he could just mind his ****. it's just sloppy. it takes technology a second or two to unfuck his image, and during that second or two, I have to deal with Hilary's tonsils, and MY GOD, Billdo didn't even want to be that close to her open mouth -- with any part of his anatomy.

oooops.... GOP had $80 million in July......derp derp

Fwiw, I agree with Bernie on that issue.

I'm a big believer in campaign finance reform but the average donation for Hillary in July was $44. Funding your campaign with donations from average Americans I don't have a problem with. It's the Super Pacs and big corporate and special interest million dollar checks that bother me. That's not what this is.

You mean like the Wall Street fund managers who have contributed $50 million? And the Saudis. And the....well you know but you are simply too dishonest to present an honest thread.

The financial disparity in this election -- lots of conflicting data-points, but the consensus seems to have been roughly 70/30 in Clinton's favor -- was greater than any other election in the post-Watergate era of public reporting requirements. I think everyone involved in politics at a serious/professional level is going to have to go back and ask, what is the financial advantage really worth in a campaign where both candidates have been well-known national figures for 20-25+ years?

$1.2 billion spent by or on behalf of Hillary! in this campaign, and it bought her almost the exact same (down to the decimal point) popular-vote % won by Gore in 2000 and Kerry in '04.

All that money and she didn't have a clue she was in trouble in Wisconsin and Michigan. And she actually thought she had a chance in Georgia and Arizona. She was counting the chickens in Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

Imagine how inefficiently she would have spent our tax dollars. It was like Huma and Podesta said, Hillary just had incredibly bad judgement.
