It's also way too long for a TV ad. They should probably cut it down to the 5-10 most egregious and make a 30-60 spot out of it.
 
It's Keith Olbermann. Former sportscaster- turned political commentator-turned sportscasting commentator....turned political commentator again.

I used to love his stuff. He had a gift of making "them" sound ridiculous. He coined the lovely term "Fox Noise." Jon Stewart was the best....Keith was always 2nd best.

But he also has a habit of falling out with his employers, which is why he's had like 4 different jobs in the last 6 years.
 
People have a tendency to forget things after a few weeks. They should really keep some of these to use in November.
 
Hillary will win, but as the general election season has progressed and we rapidly approach the debates and Election Day I get the strong feeling that it's going to be a much closer election than most of us ever hoped. Trump supporters are too rabid, the media is desperate for this to be a close race to boost their network ratings and revenue and Hillary makes too many mistakes on the campaign trail.

If it gets close, she could still lose. It's well-known that you can lose with more votes than your opponent, if you're a democrat.

The electoral college works the same regardless of political party. Had Gore ran a better campaign he would have at least won his home state and florida would have never been an issue.

Gore didn't lose, he just got too close.

Whoa. That was a bit startling to see. Did anybody else see it?

I'm talking about that Trump ad that just appeared right here in the Trek BBS webpage. I did not expect to see that here. That was weird. I guess Trump is trying woo over Trek fans. In the ad, Trump had his hand over his heart. At least Trump didn't try to do the Vulcan hand sign.

Anyway, too bad the Libertarian Gary "what is Aleppo?" Johnson didn't qualify for the first debate. What a shame. We are stuck with the two party duopoly.

Gary Johnson is a fool and a distraction. I would have preferred Jill Stein as the voice of sanity during the debates.
 
I said from the beginning it was Hillary's to lose. Looks like she's doing everything possible to lose it.

Damn her and her reasonable answers. She needs to just outright lie and threaten people's lives like Trump has. THAT'S how you win a campaign, apparently.
Seriously, quit with this "it's hers to lose" bullshit. I see other people do it but it makes just as little sense. It's not hers to lose if she's the voice of reason, and people are still choosing the shit slinging monkey because the media has decided the shit slinging monkey is more entertaining to watch.
 
Trump is his worst enemy, the biggest threat against his being elected is people actually listening to the crap he's saying.

No, I will not because it's true. She should be wiping the floor with this wacko but instead they are neck and neck. Mrs. "Experience" should have learned in 2008 that being a part of the system for 20 plus years is seen as a detriment, not a plus. That's why she lost to Obama and that's why she's not winning now.

You want Hillary to be covered more? Tell her to stop ducking the national media. Hold a press conference. Talk to more than people who are already in the tank for her. Trump gets more press because Trump talks to ALL OF THEM including CNN and NBC.

Again, this is ALL on hillary.
 
She needs to just outright lie
What do you think she been doing up until now?

You don't get it, the reason he where he is is that people are listening to what he has to say and they like what they're hearing, it makes sense to them (if not you).

It doesn't hurt Trump that he obviously likes talking to the America people, Clinton alway seem like she being forced out on stage in front of a crowd, her discomfort is clear.

Trump's unscripted and real, he doesn't sound like a puppet reciting the results of a focus group.
