There you have it. The voice of reason.
 
It's so hard to know how to react to this, but I'm going to give you the benifit of the doubt and like this.
I made a mistake and mis read the response. Thanks for the benefit of the doubt. It is an interesting question, however. How will the Dems react to a bad economy? Most people (fairly or not) seem to give the POTUS and his party credit or blame. In Hillarys early red meat statements, she seems to running as a third BHO term. If the economy is in the tank, that's seemingly off the table. She has made statements it takes a dem to fix republican screw up. ( her hubby and BHO) a bad economy messes that up also. She will reportedly have in excess of two billion to run. So I predict this will a campaign that defines dirty politics

Oh well, it was funny when I thought you meant your comment with a knowing tongue in your cheek. As is, I think Hill be running for Bill's third term, probably with a war tossed in to keep the Wall Street people happy. If you liked the 90's Hill is a good bet.

That's a reasonable assumption but it will hard for a candidate as gaffe prone and wooden as Hill to pull it off
 
If the economy slows the rest of the year and into 2016, what will the democrat talking point be?

Blame it on the ineptitude of the new congress and the further political gridlock paralysis DC seems to be inflicted with.

The dems will throw in a war or the threat of one to further urge voters to not make any rash changes (elect Billary), giving Bill a de facto 3rd and possibly 4th term.
 
In 1993 when responding to a question about her health care plan, Hillary Clinton said "I cannot worry about every mom-and-pop-business" in the country. A women had inquired about her and her husband's health-care insurance business, and where they were going to fit in under Hillary Care. On television, the questioner who was described as an avid Clinton supporter appeared stunned by the answer and Hillary sounded aggravated by the question.

Now, it appears that in the last few weeks she is describing herself as the champion of small business.

She actually said any "undercapitalized" small business, as I recall. Kind of a "let them eat cake" comment. Hillary is always upset when she has to talk to the common person

I looked up the exact quote in an effort to prove you wrong.

However, it turns out that your version of the quote was spot-on.

In any event, I find it ironic that she is now running on her record of "supporting" small business. I am at a loss to come up with a concrete example of this support, so I guess she is just declaring this to be the case.
