So why not just ignore those of us who cannot stand her? djean111 Jun 2014 #4

Winning is all that matters, and that we hate the other side Puzzledtraveller Jun 2014 #18

Whomever is the nominee, of course. MoonRiver Jun 2014 #44

That is nice I will not and I will stop voting for all Democrats too Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #41

Ciao! FSogol Jun 2014 #117

I am sure they will miss you.... VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #23

They will miss the money I donate that is about it Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #47

How much do you donate? VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #52

Between 10 and 20k per election cycle Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #56

you're saying you donate between 10,000 and 20,000 per election cycle and you say "not much"? CreekDog Jun 2014 #136

Oh I get calls but have been telling the DNC to FO for a number of years now Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #137

you're saying you donate between $10,000 and $20,000 per cycle? CreekDog Jun 2014 #141

I do I am just very particular as to whom I donate too Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #142

It will add up, because it will be MANY of us. n/t Dawgs Jun 2014 #57

Well 69% of Democrats already support the candidate backed by Goldman Sachs Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #64

Sour grapes? VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #67

Not worried. She won't be the nominee. n/t Dawgs Jun 2014 #69

Just like I said nobody will care and as you point out my vote nor donations are needed Exposethefrauds Jun 2014 #76

I like how it looks from here frankly! VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #77

More than the 69% will? VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #65

You realize 69% isn't that great, right? n/t Dawgs Jun 2014 #70

You realize 69% at this point is unheard of....right? VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #81

At this point any number is meaningless. Dawgs Jun 2014 #90

says the guy who cannot commit to voting for whomever the Democrats select..... VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #91

That doesn't even make any sense. Dawgs Jun 2014 #94

Of course you don't VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #96

And of course you do.. n/t Dawgs Jun 2014 #98

Yes I do....I AM a Democrat.. VanillaRhapsody Jun 2014 #102

No. I'm not a Democrat. Dawgs Jun 2014 #104

100% of the population doesn't know everything about any politician. That is why we have been lumpy Jun 2014 #123
