I think, at this point in the process, you need to decide if it's worth your time to be in a Democratic forum.

Your urge to purge is a bit premature, as well as running contrary to that intention the Clinton campaign proclaimed to have: to reach out to those who still have concerns about her. But I guess like ... everything else Clinton has said ... that statement was only valid for a limited time?

as a smear. It seems close to impossible to for many to accept criticism as anything other than RW propaganda. In that sense, she has won. I cry at the thought of this 'victory'.

That is moving.

I was especially stuck by Hillary's phony (?) laugh in the debate where she was criticized for her Iraq war vote. We've heard that.

humanity as a whole. There isn't much difference between her and Trump. They're both manipulative, egotistical, war-mongering, mean people. Just the opposite of what this world needs in this day. I will never vote for such a person. Hell, I don't even like being around these kind of people.

The republicans have moved much farther to the right. Hillary, and the Third Way, have taken the Democrats to the right to fill the void.

In fact so much so, he wouldn't be elected by Republicans today. The only man my Democratic father ever voted for who was a Republican, but then the repukes like to claim that Lincoln was one of their own. I know what Republicans are today and they have no business running any form of government, local, state or federal. PS: Sorry to burst your little bubble, Hillary is no republican, only in the fairytale land called "Purity World".

The goal of the DLC/Third Way movement was to move the Democrats to the right on economic and foreign policy but keep some of the social justice issues for the left.

That's pretty much the definition of a Rockefeller republican. Thomas Frank does a great job at filling in the details.

It is your bubble that is the problem.

Your just repeating words that you have no real understanding about. DLC/ Third Way Movement, I have to laugh at your naïveté. Keep your head in the sand little one. Women are going to rule whether you like it or not. PS. The " Purity Ball" tickets are all sold out.

The Clinton campaign hasn't yet been able to get the framing they want for Secretary Clinton, imo, so she's vulnerable to videos like this. There's an unacceptable amount of doubt about her honesty still out there. Trump is in arguably worse shape, but against him it would be a battle of who can better get the ear of the undecided voters.

Senator Sanders will have his own issues if nominated, so against Trump it would be a different kind of warfare, and with a different kind of appeal to the voters ears in their respective ads.
