There are too many it's her turn supporters. If you generally believe HRC is the better

candidate I can respect that, but if you if you believe it's her turn well that's a pretty stupid reason to vote for someone.

Hillary is bright as hell, but she's far too loose with the truth.

I think she'd be a (marginally) better President, but I'm having trouble believing she could survive the general.

It doesn't get any more 'marginal' than THAT unless you're a republican neocon.

With Bernie, they'd be more likely to at least be fighting on issues.

And if Democrats actually stood behind the issues they claim to represent (all that liberal progressive stuff) I think we'd have a better chance of moving more balls to more goalposts.
