Democrat primary in West Virginia

Drudge:
Joe Biden: ‘I Would Have Been the Best President’   "Biden has not endorsed either Clinton or Sen. Bernie Sanders, her opponent in the primary, but he said he thinks Clinton will be the nominee."

Bernie does West Virginia 


In West Virginia, Clinton also suffered from her association with Obama



American Thinker:
Ominous signs for ‘presumptive nominee’ Hillary in West Virginia primary results   . . . "If I were a Democrat superdelegate (boy, that’s a stretch for my imagination!), I’d have to wonder about throwing my lot in with a candidate so unpopular with the party’s base. How many repudiations will it take to move their votes?"


Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel

Clinton's favorability rating trend points to a Trump landslide in November   "While Hillary Clinton supporters try to hype the unfavorability ratings of her general election opponent, getting ignored in the liberal maelstrom of deceit is the skyrocketing unfavorability rating of their own presumptive nominee."

Lucianne:
What Democratic Landslide?  "Warning: Candidates in this election may be closer than they appear."

NRO
A Trump Win Would Destroy Clinton’s Legacy — and Obama’s
. . . "Trump has defeated one consistent conservative lawmaker after another in the GOP primary, and Democrats would be foolish to underestimate him. If it wasn’t obvious already, they have just as much to lose as Republicans in November." . . .

NY Post  . . . "Clinton can’t let him succeed, and instead must put him on defense with nonstop attacks on his character and lack of government experience. She’s already doing that, but is paying a price with his fierce counter-punching.
"Her big advantage is the Electoral College, and she will try to shut him down by relentlessly playing the women’s and racial cards. And it’s certain Trump will hand her gaffe gifts and display an embarrassing lack of detailed knowledge." . . .

Clinton accomplishments summed up in these posts

Defense against Rape Victim's accusation…  "Almost two years ago the Washington Free Beacon broke the story of a recording within the Clinton Library of Hillary Clinton laughing and describing her work as a defense attorney for a predatory child rapist."   Apparently she really did have a southern accent at that time.

Sidney Blumenthal Says FBI Will Announce There Are No Charges Against Clinton…  FBI Confirms It WILL Interview Hillary Clinton…

Justice’s reputation hangs in balance of Clinton probe

"The film portrays the Clintons as a greedy tag team who used the family’s controversial Clinton Foundation and her position as secretary of state to help billionaires make shady deals around the world with corrupt dictators, all while enriching themselves to the tune of millions."  
Yet there are people who truly want her to be president! Here are some of them:

Transgender Activism Has Produced a Legal Absurdity

. . . "In 1972, Congress enacted the federal law known as Title IX. Title IX provides generally that no school that receives federal funding — a category that includes public grade schools and high schools as well as nearly all colleges, public or private — may “discriminat[e]” “on the basis of sex.” Everyone understood from the beginning, and the Obama administration still agrees, that Title IX allows schools to have single-sex restrooms, locker rooms, and showers. A regulation dating from 1975 says exactly that — a school “may provide separate toilet, locker room, and shower facilities on the basis of sex” — and goes on to specify only that “such facilities provided for students of one sex shall be comparable to such facilities provided for students of the other sex” (emphasis added)." . . .

Of course: another group of victims! Fat 'activist' rails against 'thin privilege' and 'fat oppression'

"Fatphobia"?  "Thin privilege"? You have to read this to believe it.

. . . Tovar’s talk, entitled “Dispelling Myths: Fat, Fatphobia, and Challenging Social Stereotypes,” was designed to help students understand that “fat phobia” is rampant in a “white, heteronormative society” that is looking to actively oppress people with larger body types. Society’s bias against fat people is, apparently, a form of bigotry and discrimination, evident in everything from sexual preferences to the size of seats on public transportation.She even, reportedly, compared society’s anti-fat culture to so-called “rape culture,” and chastised society for its obsession with what she termed “thin privilege.”
. . . "As predictable as this "social justice" madness has become, the damage it does to society is real and lasting. We are being Balkanized by those who are slicing our culture into ever smaller pieces, each with an "authentic" voice of oppression. The goal is to eliminate "normal" as a dominant feature in society. We should be able to tolerate anyone. But when they start demanding special treatment to make white males pay for their perceived (or delusional) oppression, it is right and proper to slap them down and point out how ludicrous their importunings are."

Shapeshifting  But will I vote for him over any Democrat? Yes indeed.  As previously declared, we are not choosing a president; we are choosing a government, including a Supreme Court.

PRESIDENT FAILURE AND HIS FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE'S SMART DIPLOMACY:




The truth (and lies) behind why Hillary is unfit to be president
. . . "Voters distrust Clinton with good reason. She has repeatedly looked them in the eye and told bald-faced lies. But it is the callousness and ease with which she lies that should be more troubling. Despite the murders of four Americans at the hands of terrorists while serving as secretary of state, Clinton claimed we "didn't lose a single person" in Libya under her watch. She has even had the gall to call one of the victim's mothers a liar, even though we know it was Hillary who lied about the cause of the Benghazi terrorist attack." . . .

A Trump Win Would Destroy Clinton’s Legacy — and Obama’s

NRO

. . . "But Trump isn’t just playing in the Republican primary anymore. And if he’s competitive in November, or wins, it will be a loud, clear signal that Obama’s presidency largely failed. Eight years of his policies and leadership left Americans angry, disappointed, and frightened enough to be willing to roll the dice on Trump."



With Gender Bender Bathrooms, Liberals Jump the Shark


American Thinker  . . . "Rights talk has turned out to be political gold for liberals, so why not combine the right to be creative with the rights of helpless victims? You demand your right to be edgy and out there with the demand to be cosseted as a helpless victim in your safe space." . . . 

Obama’s Toilet Revolution   . . . "Barack Obama and his militant Justice Department don’t care at all about individuals confused or rebellious about their gender. As with all revolutionary activity, the goal is to seize upon crisis in order to further the aggrandizement of the State, and its control over every competing area of society.

"Obama’s response to North Carolina is a classic Leftist maneuver of setting up a straw man, or transgender in this case, to ensure and continue to expand federal power over the states. From a revolutionary perspective, states with their 10th Amendment constitutional sovereignty are antithetical to the long-term objective of an international socialist system. " . . .  

Wow! Obama drives down coal company stocks, and Soros buys them on the cheap

Thomas Lifson

Notice Obama's touch of affection
"I have always believed that global warming is a gigantic scam, driven by greed and lust for power. Now comes the shocking news, via Steve Milloy writing on Breitbart, that following President Obama’s use of CO2 emissions as a weapon to drive major coal companies near bankruptcy, the ultimate politically connected speculator George Soros is buying up stock in major coal producers on the cheap.
    "I predicted last week that the left wasn’t going to kill off the coal industry so much as it was going to steal it. That prediction is already becoming true courtesy of billionaire George Soros.
    "U.S. Securities and Exchange Act filings indicate that Soros has purchased an initial 1 million shares of Peabody Energy and 553,200 shares of Arch Coal, the two largest publicly traded U.S. coal companies. As pointed out last week, both companies have been driven perilously close to bankruptcy by the combination of President Obama’s “war on coal” and inexpensive natural gas brought on by the hydro fracturing revolution." . . .

"Having elected him president twice, we have done much to earn Obama’s contempt."

Look what this man has done to this nation by means of, um..less than intelligent voters.

THE RUNT OF RHODES   "Obamacare was built on an edifice of calculated lies. Some of us could see the propositions on which President Obama sold Obamacare as falsehoods at the time of the selling. Others have learned from bitter experience after the buying. President Obama and his team hold a low opinion of the intelligence of the American people. See, for example, the case of Jonathan Gruber. Having elected him president twice, we have done much to earn Obama’s contempt.


"Now comes Obama deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes to reveal the lies on which Obama’s alliance with the Islamic Republic of Iran was promoted." . . . 
"Rhodes is not, as he should be, confined to fetching coffee and performing other menial tasks befitting his qualifications to formulate national security policy. “He is,” writes [Ben] Samuels, “according to the consensus of the two dozen current and former White House insiders I talked to, the single most influential voice shaping American foreign policy aside from Potus himself.”
"Rhodes himself, however, is an odious ignoramus who knows one thing: Obama’s servitors in the mainstream media are useful idiots." . . .


UPDATE: Obama the Fabulist   . . . What Rhodes and the president share though, is not so much a leftist approach to foreign affairs -- though presumably that plays a role -- but rather a talent for creating foreign policy fables that flatter Obama and his coterie, and can be passed off to lapdog media types as “successes.” In this, Rhodes is just one more piece of the fictional story that is Barack Hussein Obama, the country and the world his stage, and the rest of us merely players -- if that." . . .

Jonathan Gruber—"the MIT economist who worked closely on both Obamacare and Romneycare—as the guy who thinks voters are “stupid.' ”

FORMER OBAMA ADVISER: OBAMA’S WEAKNESS DRIVING ALLIES TOWARD RUSSIA


 Political Cartoons by Steve Breen
"As I hear on my visits to the region, Arabs and Israelis alike are looking to the next administration."
 

PowerLine  "Dennis Ross is a respected, if thoroughly conventional, expert on the Middle East. A Democrat, he has served in both Republican and Democratic administrations as an adviser and envoy. Ross served in the State Department as Hillary Clinton’s Special Advisor for the Persian Gulf and Southwest Asia. Subsequently, he joined President Obama’s National Security Council staff as a Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for the Central Region, which includes the Middle East, the Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, Pakistan and South Asia. So when Ross writes, in Politico, that Obama’s foreign policy weakness is hurting American interests, we should take notice.

Noisy Room

Obama

. . . "President Obama is guaranteed to be celebrated as the first black president in the history books. However, any fair accounting will need to cover the disaster that is the Iran deal, and Obama’s unilateral quest to complete the transformation of America at any cost. And there is a list of scandals that the media have refused to identify as such. President Obama is not a liberal Ronald Reagan; Reagan succeeded at what he put his mind to. President Obama has simply left in his wake a series of broken promises and disasters. Maybe that’s what he intended all along."
