I don't care WHY conservatives might support Clinton. I'm not voting for the same person as

[leeroysphitz]

my asshole, fox news watching republican father-in law. Not gonna happen. Not now, not ever.

lol And if that isn't a good enough reason to stay home in November I'll introduce you to him and you'd stay home too.

1. Good.

If she's gotta be our president, let's make her be her best.

[djean111]

2. I do believe that Hillary's notion of "best" is light-years away from your notion of "best".

IMO she is going to go all-out Maggie Thatcher.

And - she doesn't give a rat's ass what any of us think.

[Orsino]

8. She doesn't care what any one of us thinks, sure.

But if we ever make up our minds, even she will listen to all of us.

[djean111]

13. In all seriousness, she does not consider that she answers to us. Her contempt is visible, to me,

simmering under the surface of "How dare you question me!".

She has her corporate Wall Street owners, her Kissinger-inspired lust for killing, and her Third Way to-do list. Her huge pile of money. Really, there will be nothing we could do, except deny her a second term, and I would bet the DNC has that sewn up, too.

[Orsino]

23. That's a function of the mountains of money.

If enough of us spoke as clearly and in such unison, we'd have what we want. Unfortunately, the money bamboozles us, too.

[Lizzie Poppet]

9. Unless you're a hedge fund manager or suchlike, you have zero ability to influence her.

That's why I'll never vote for her, not with a gun to my head: it could hardly be more obvious that she doesn't give a single, solitary fuck about anyone not positioned to be of benefit to her. Her latest pragmatic decision illustrates this: the moment she deemed it unnecessary (or impossible) to woo Bernie supporters, she veered hard right and started cozying up to Bush's billionaire backers. She's an unprincipled, venal wretch...so far from being "presidential material" that only having Trump in the race even remotely makes her look suitable. She isn't.

[Orsino]

12. Fortunately, it's not up to me.

We have only to agree on what we want, and it will be ours.

I think that the more caretaker presidents we elect, the more inequality will continue to grow, and the more people we'll have on our side.

[Juicy_Bellows]

21. The writing on the wall is crystal clear to anyone that can read.

However, some that are literate seem to not exercise that privilege.

[Dem2]

3. Hello.

I've 9 years old.

[Hekate]

24. Looks more like 4 years old in that pic, Id say. Or maybe 3.

My 2 y.o. used to throw the most spectacular tantrums. My little sister did those at 4. I mean all out, full body....

Both grew up into reasonable adults, though.

[Dem2]

31. OK

I'll pull out pics of my kids to compare.

[CrowCityDem]

4. Even if he decided to support Bernie?

[leeroysphitz]

6. Trust me he would only support Bernie if Bernie started acting like Clinton.

So no.

[1StrongBlackMan]

7. Internet Day ... Won.

[LexVegas]

5. ...

[Rass]

10. In practice, Hillary is a right-winger

Like coke (third way corporate democrats) vs Pepsi (republicans)

[Hekate]

14. Anyone can post a 4-color graph. That doesn't make it factual. Hillary's record as a Dem...

...says otherwise than your bogus claim.

[Rass]

16. Just the facts

[GoneFishin]

30. Anyone can put a 'D' after their name, that doesn't mean their not a Republican at heart.

[Hekate]

33. Just like anyone can post at Democratic Underground. Just sayin'

And that's "they're" as a contraction of "they are."



JURY: The post I am responding to says, in context of Hillary Clinton: "Anyone can put a 'D' after their name, that doesn't mean their not a Republican at heart."

[Hekate]

11. You haz a sad because sane Republicans would rather vote for the Democrat than Trump?

Instead of rejoicing that there is some sanity left in this country you are having a temper tantrum? Are you going to hold your breath until you turn blue, and drum your heels on the floor?

That'll show them!

[Trust Buster]

19. Quite a revolution he's got going there. One where his father in law dictates the terms. LOL

[Hekate]

26. My daughter's FIL is a retired county sheriff, very conservative. Palin was his breaking point.

He and his wife are bright people who disagree with me politically. And they saw right through Sarah Palin and for them she disqualified John McCain by her presence on the ticket.

Did I mock them? Did I tell them their vote for Obama was not wanted? Did I decide Obama was not worthy based on their decisions?

What do you think?

[Trust Buster]

28. To the Republican's credit, they still woo Reagan Democrats.

The Sanders supporters always go on about Indepdents but will allow crossover Republicans to determine how they vote. They seem to be totally ruled by emotion and not by the larger picture.

[Trust Buster]

15. Yes, let your father in law dictate your political behavior. You sound like a strong revolutionary.

[MFM008]

17. You fell for that one.

The WSJ owned by Rupert Murdock tells us that Republicans are supporting Hillary Clinton. And people go crazy jumping the sharks like in the movie Sharknado.
Charles Koch comes out and says Hillary Clinton is a great candidate when his entire life is spent trying to defeat everything she believes in and you fall for it ........you know this propaganda stuff really seems to work

[k8conant]

18. You're telling my story! However, my f-i-l is not an a$$hole

but his politics and TV-tastes suck. We just don't talk about it.

[Juicy_Bellows]

20. + ∞

Sealab and The Ambiguously Gay Duo make you alright in my book!

[Tarc]

22. That's a an amazingly ill-informed reason to vote or not vote for someone

Low-grade, personal spite.

[loyalsister]

25. An alternate interpretation is what drives the absurd loyalty the Clinton's have cultivated

Some people will defend anything they do based on their perception of the Clinton's as victims and hatred for the RW based on witch hunts that they have both dropped crumbs for. It's quite a scam to convince people to vote against their interests based on hating the other side.
I totally get where you're coming from and I have been hoping it would finally backfire on them. But not with the kind of destruction a Trump presidency could bring.

[NCTraveler]

27. Viva La Revolution!!!!!! nt.

[beachbumbob]

29. Self centered egotistical view that could allow an ass like trump in the

Whitehouse....will make sanders so proud to be the cause of the destruction of America because his supporters put ego first...

[GoneFishin]

32. So it's Bernie's fault if Hillary couldn't get enough votes? Anyone who is afraid of Trump has no

business supporting Hillary.
