Signs

Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:

Presidential elections are coming up. Hilary Clinton is the Democrat front-runner and Scott Walker the Republican front-runner for President. It’s so hard to know who to vote for. Let me help you out:

The last time Hilary Clinton drove a car was 1996, when Magic Johnson was playing, Don Shula retired and Taylor Swift entered grade school. Hilary’s been chauffeured around in limousines ever since.

Scott Walker, Governor of Wisconsin, rides a Harley.

That’s all you need to know.

Although to be fair, when your constituency includes Milwaukee, it’s probably a good idea to ride a Harley even if you hate them.

But the larger point is valid; do you remember how people castigated George HW Bush for not remembering what the price of a gallon of milk was, after 12 years in the administration and of not being allowed to go near a grocery store by the Secret Service?

  1. Remember, (one recall election and one re-election ago) when Lefty – including those in the Democrat Party Dominated Media Culture – went apoplectic about Scott Walker taking a phone call from a Lefty purporting himself to be a Koch Brother? Yeah. The not driving since ’96 isn’t going to phase them…
    “Foreign governments gave millions to foundation while Clinton was at State Dept.”

  2. PS: You think the outlets where ‘real’ Americans get their news (TMZ, Comedy Central, Buzzfeed, Reddit) this story will get any play? They are already out of stock of Media Member size “Ready for Hillary” tee shirts.

  3. ” do you remember how people castigated George HW Bush for not remembering what the price of a gallon of milk was”
    Not people, the press. It worked, though, because Clinton could act the common man, and GHW Bush couldn’t. Hillary probably hasn’t been able to relate to Real Americans (TM) since high school.
