I agree, I mean I don't like her but it's because of the BS "I'll do literally anything to get elected" including have millions of minions out there effing with the voter roles, sending out fake BS posts on social media, having people with HRC2016 on their car tags running the Iowa caucus, having Bill illegally go into voting precincts, etc., and that's only the tip of the iceberg.
I think the same thing can be said about her that I say about Obama. There are literally millions of people in this country who hate his guts who still 7+ years into his presidency don't know why, other than they've been programmed to do so. Some of it is based on racism in Obama's case (but certainly not all), some of it's based on sexism in Hilldog's case (but certainly not all) and a whole lot of it is based on our absolute need to vote with "Our Party". How many years have I been saying Repubs would vote for their guy even if it was the Antichrist running as long as he had an R after his name, and the same thing with Dems, if there's a D after the name that's their person.
I think Obama and W had a lot of people hate them because of that "certain something" in their personality, and I think both are more likable BY FAR than either Hilldog or Trump. The closest historical proof I can see is Andrew Jackson. I mean, Nixon was hated by many in his own party (worse than Trump) and by literally everyone else but even he didn't inspire the creation of a whole new political party like Jackson did (the Whigs).
Reagan and Bill were both full of shi-ite but they had that "knack" of getting people to like them, then in 2000 W got elected because "he wasn't Clinton or Al Gore" and because his brother is better at running a state than he was in running for president, and in 2008 and 2012 Obama got elected because he wasn't W, or Vlad Cheney, and a good man got left behind in 2008 McCain, and a numbnuts got left behind in 2012 (Mittens).
Hilldog, for better or worse doesn't have that "likability factor" that any of those people had/have IMO. Trump is simply cleaning up on the BS the Repubs, Faux, and Talk Radio have been chanting for the past 2 decades, "Your way of life is under attack" "there's a war on Christmas" and "They're out to get you" and so on. Faux and talk radio did it for ratings/money much more IMO than for ideology but since it worked the Repubs started using it too. Trump just seems like the bully they were looking for to help kick the ass of the other bully "who's out to get them and steal their very way of life".
I think it Hilldog had the likability factor that Reagan or Bill had she'd win this thing in a blowout. Right now she just needs to get hers up to the level of W or Obama. I've been saying for literally decades that there hasn't been anyone who could polarize people like Hillary, not since Andrew Jackson. I think history and the numbers will bear me out, but I suppose we'll see.
