80. Nope. I did alert. Just because I don't support Hillary and choose to support another Democrat

is no reason to suggest that I should leave this forum for Green Party digs. Is it?

I am on record many times explaining my past with the Clintons and my support of them, right up until the IWR vote. No one that voted for that war will ever get my vote for president (ETA: unless they are the nominee). I supported Hillary Clinton for NY Senate, BEFORE her IRW vote. I've also said, many times, that if she is our nominee, I will vote for her to keep an R out of office.

My two years trumps that other poster's 4 months, no?

So, you want us to defeat the republican nominee with our own republican? nt ChisolmTrailDem Aug 2014 #16

I want to beat the Republicans with someone with a D after their name... VanillaRhapsody Aug 2014 #26

There's a difference between a D and a DINO. So, you want a DINO to have ChisolmTrailDem Aug 2014 #43
