In reply to the discussion: THE NOTHING CANDIDATE: Same Mistakes As '08 [View all]LWolf
(46,179 posts)48. But...But...
any candidate who actually stands for something, who actually stands a line and fights to move it for us, who actually represents us...that candidate can't WIN!!!!
We can't WIN unless we support someone who doesn't represent us! We MUST get behind the nothing-candidate, or we'll LOSE. Don't you get it?
WE CAN ONLY WIN IF WE LOSE.

Although Hillary is largely liberal on social issues (though usually not ahead of the curve)

wrong. I have long been opposed to Hillary for President. I certainly didn't support Nader

OP-"everyone in the party seems to be supporting her, & yet nobody can articulate exactly why."

& TWO victories, and 22,000,000 new jobs, Clinton would have been elected to a 3rd term.

Clinton had a lot to do with the suffering of the Iraqi people. Why is this ignored?

What we do not need from either the left or right is going too far in either direction.
