I talked to a long time republican voter tonight who wants Hillary to win....

He wants her in office so the Republicans can conduct hearings on her and her husband and "set the record straight" not only on her but on BOTH of them. That way kids can read about how AWFUL they were in their history books.

This guy also believes kids are taught Ronald Reagan was the greatest president in history.

Seriously.

He thinks that answering anything other than that on the test should give you an automatic "F".

Scary to have contact with people like that.

my 84 year old aunt has a Bill O'Reilly No Spin Zone Jacket. Her kids bought it for her.

It's awful.

I am a member of a species that is brilliant enough to build laboratories in orbit and invent artificial organs, but is stupid enough to have this kind of nonsense taken seriously.

So I gather that's the republican strategy after she gets in.

There is ZERO enthusiasm for ANYONE in their field but LOTS of enthusiasm to put the country though petty crap for the entire Hillary years.

The guy even invoked the idea of appointing a Special Prosecutor again who would be more like a Grand Inquisitor for the Church Of Reagan.

Oh,....and this guy's wife rolls her eyes a lot.
