He is a jerk! hrmjustin Sep 2014 #1

He's a misgynist, too. eom MohRokTah Sep 2014 #2

That has always been my impression of him. n/t pnwmom Sep 2014 #10

I agree Gothmog Sep 2014 #52

OMFG. Seriously, Bill? If he does that, he just lost this woman viewer. catbyte Sep 2014 #3

Hillary is a non-choice for me as well. Hoping for a Sanders run personally, NorthCarolina Sep 2014 #22

if Sanders runs as a third party, enlighten me how he will win the purple and red states? still_one Sep 2014 #27

Sanders will not run as 3rd party. He is a pragmatist and would not put a Rethug in office HERVEPA Sep 2014 #30

Hillary is a warmonger, no doubt, but that's not a good enough reason that people, even that azz Bill M, would necessarily want to vote her into office. InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2014 #43
