(3,747 posts)You can vote whoever in the primary, but in the general, it must be stand together. We cannot allow the republicans to take our country completely down the wrong path. Perhaps I'm still angry about 2000 with the Nadir "lesser of evil" talk. I'll take lesser evil over greater evil any day of the week. And if it's Hillary, I'll stand behind her.
Bernie is a great guy, but could he win in the general? I think not. But Julian Castro is an interesting name. He might have a chance and I would vote another minority over a white man in the primary. Yes, Bernie is a wonderful man, but he isn't even a democrat.
Yes, we are supposed to vote for what is best for America, and if Hillary can mop the field, I'm behind her. What's best for America is that we take back the House and hold the Senate in 2014. In my state we need to fight to get our state house back in the blue column and this talk of 2016 is really a waste of breath and energy.
