What if we don't want Hillary Clinton as Democratic candidate?

128. Makes sense..based on past performance with much of the Democrats

we have in the House/Senate. The worst are the Gang of 14 which vote Republican...but, there are others and they carefully switch around votes so it may look like it's the Blue Dogs...but the votes sometimes for them to seem to be the "fall guys/gals" to take the hit when really it's the majority Dems that have a problem with a policy/bill/amendment but need the cover of the Blue Dogs vote with the Repugs so that they keep their seats and their money from the Lobbyists.

I think this because of all those C-Span hearings in the House and Senate and watching vote tallies switch back and forth and then checking to see who voted for what during the Bush years. That was an eye opener for me. And, very discouraging but, after awhile it was obvious the games that were being played with many votes already counted ahead of time...so the vote was just Theater in the end.

It was a very sad revelation and I know other DU'ers here at the time who used to do running threads on Senate/House votes during Bush terrible times began to pick up on the way it all operated and became as discouraged as myself about 3/4ths of the way through Bush's second term. We were seasoned by that experience for what has come after.
