    Put me on record as believing Trump would be an unmitigated diplomatic and economic disaster. I hope I'm wrong.

    And Obama ran on Hope and Change ... how did that work out?
    Above average to good.
    Highly disagree ... if he was above average to good ... Trump wouldn't be the more likely winner at this point and time ... IRYK
    Bush beat Gore and you'd have to do some extreme mental math to say Clinton was an economic disaster.
    So ...

    Clinton benefited a ton from the growth of the personal computer and Windows ...

    If you look locally, it's similar to Inslee taking credit for the growth in Washington jobs because of the growth of companies like Amazon ... he had zero influence on that

    In other words Bill was not an economic disaster. Sometimes not fucking up is all you need.

    Way missing the point ...

    First thing about politics that people need to understand is that you have to look through the shit ... understand what's really going on below the surface ...

    The problem with most people is that they only look at the surface ...

    No question that at least Clinton didn't fuck it up ... although you could argue that some of his policies regarding home ownership led to the bursting of the housing bubble ... but whatever ...

    The point being that when you have very dynamic things happening in your backyard you need to understand the underlying circumstances ... the reality is that Inslee has had nothing to do with the growth in Seattle-area businesses like Amazon, etc. Similarly it's the same that Bubba had with respect to the technological revolution that happened in the 90s that he had no hand in but benefited a ton in the numbers.

    Think of all the asshole celebs and idiots moving to Canada and other Countries!

    Heh. Yeah, just like how they threatened to move when Dubya became president. Idiots.

    I always want to punch people when they say they're going to move to Canada due to the results of an election - if you're unhappy with the government, you stay, regroup, and work to bring about change. If there's a silver lining to this shitshow, it's that it hopefully wakes everybody up (of all political parties) and they start to really get involved.

    Not that I'm holding my breath that will happen.
    Cause no conservative said they were moving to Canada if Obama won?
    True...I was thinking more of the celebrities (who are for the most part more liberal leaning).

    Poor Canada - they just can't win.

    Call me crazy, but I don't think the 2008 housing bubble had an effect on the 2000 election.

    People in general in 2000 were tired of the Clinton machine ... which Gore was part of ... that's the reality ...

    The fact that Dubya won a close election kinda speaks to that ... if Bubba was such a disaster Gore would have got crushed like Hillary did tonight ...

    Hillary is as lying and corrupt as they come ... most Americans realize that ...

    But most also realize that Obama hasn't been as up and up as we would want him to be ... and if his tenure was as strong as some would like to believe, then a continuance would be expected against a candidate with as many issues that Trump has ... and let's be honest ... Trump has plenty of issues ...

    But Hillary is not only going to lose, but she's looking to get crushed ... that's telling to me
