Yes, but in that case Dems are in control . . . . FBI is a division of the Department of Justice, which is controlled by US Attorney General, Loretta Lynch. who is a cabinet member of the Obama administration. She has a prosecutorial discretion over whether to indict or charge anyone.

GOP, on the other hand, will have no control over the Convention meltdown.

In theory, the fbi is independent. I have my doubts but time shall tell.

Well this Democrat is just fine "dealing" with our choices. I'm doing so well that while I prefer one over the other, I just fine with either.

How about you?



Agree wholeheartedly...either Dem is fine.


LMAO at such whining by the Republican lemmings. Trump and Cruz...Is that the best you can do? Really? Hopefully - for your party - an adult or two will arrive at the convention and knock some heads together and you will find a real candidate....and I don't mean Rick Perry.

if obama could get on the ballot he'd easily win a 3rd term. that's why i think hillary would generally win fairly easily vs trump.

Hillary would (will) do a pretty decent job once she crushes that racist clown in the general.
This pretty much says it all. Thank you teajadists for helping ensure Hillary, a mediocre candidate with the potential to be a fantastic president, sail to victory despite her lack of charisma.

How can the choices get worse than the Greed Over People's party clown car?

Hey, hey, Mr. Trump expanding Medicare to implement a single payor healthcare system is soooooooo different from expanding Medicaid under ACA.

Democrats-how are you dealing with your lousy choices this year?

Considering they're still better than the GOP's rag-tag lot it's not all that difficult.

Like I said when there were 17 candidates and the conservatives were oh so proud of the "choice", that is like having "fantastic choice" at a Golden Corral buffet . . . . a choice without quality is absolutely meaningless.
