Maybe YOhio is being serious about Biden. But think about it, the more likable candidate has won every election since 1980. I have no idea whether Carter was more likable than Ford.Originally posted by LA Ute View PostJoe Biden Is Sounding Out Allies About a 2016 Bid

I'm quite positive that McGovern must have been more likable than Nixon, but the Democrats thought it was a good idea to win with a coalition of hippies and black panthers in 1972 and that didn't work out so well.
Biden is a lovable buffoon who's endured quite a bit of personal tragedy.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

The MSM love him. Everytime he makes a gaff instead of going on and on about the gaff, they talk about what a great guy he is.Originally posted by Color Me Badd Fan View PostMaybe YOhio is being serious about Biden.

Here's an interesting article on what they found in couple emails from that sample of 40 emails:
http://www.thedailybeast.com/article...-s-emails.html
In short, two of those emails (out of only 40, not 30k) contained emails that were about as top secret as it gets. And here's the lovely part about that:
You don't say!The FBI is now on the case and one hopes they will exercise due diligence in their investigation of what may be a serious leak of classified information, made worse by the fact that Clinton’s personal server was wholly unencrypted for three months, leaving it wide open to exploitation by foreign intelligence services.
The number of spy services interested in the communications of the U.S. secretary of state numbers more than a hundred. Given their technical proficiency, it’s naïve to assume that the Russians and Chinese aren’t among them—a fact that John Kerry, the current secretary, recently admitted.
It’s safe to assume, then, that Moscow and Beijing know what Hillary’s “private” emails as Secretary of State contained. Let’s hope that the American public will someday as well.
Now we kind of understand why the FBI has taken the steps to seize the server and the thumb drive -- probably not to prosecute Hillary Clinton, just to find out how much damage she has inflicted on US intelligence.Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

You have described a lot of Western Canadian politics pretty well. Never a dull moment up north.Originally posted by SandYFan View PostIt's a weird combination of left-wing principles and right-wing sensibilities. Is this what Canada is?"...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

The article also goes into, on a superficial level, what the protocols are for federal employees/officials with regard to classified intelligence. Basically, there's no way that Clinton didn't know she was wildly violating these rules and laws. It's an exhibition of total disregard.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostThat was an incredible security breach. Can't imagine what she was thinking.
Remember, all of this stems from the investigation into Benghazi. Hillary refused to properly comply with the investigation, thought she could stonewall and now this has mushroomed into something where the FBI is now investigating the security breach she caused because of her idiocy.Part of it is based on academic grounds.

Plausible deniability. Clinton's inner circle may have stripped off email classification markings:
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015...tion-markings/
Read the article from the Daily Beast first, then read this. The author of the Daily Beast points out that the people from the intelligence agencies are diligent in stamping these docs/emails. Then you have Hillary back in March telling everyone that she never sent any classified information out of her emails from her private server.Part of it is based on academic grounds.

I think it would be funny if she really did order a book on how to wipe a hard drive clean and the FBI finds the Amazon order email confirmation on the home server."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
