A question for HRC supporters ...

[calimary]

94. That would be me. I vote for Supreme Court pickers.

I do happen to believe that, realistically and for the sake of practicality, HRC has the best shot at winning. Over anybody. And I think there's an unseen groundswell of American women who simply want to see a woman seated behind the Resolute Desk. I have already heard plenty of "it's OUR turn now." I've even heard it from GOP women. There seems to be this perception about wanting to be part of history next time if they think there'll be a next time. Especially if they weren't in on the most recent one because they went with mccain or wrongney four years later.

I think she's gonna be it. But I'm damned if I'M gonna sit home and pout and sulk because I didn't get MY candidate, if someone else winds up being our nominee - the way some people are threatening to do here. I'm voting "D." From the top all the way to the bottom. If it isn't Hillary Clinton, FINE. WHOEVER the Dem is, you better believe I'm THERE! I'm mainly invested in keeping the White House. And I'm sorry to have to say this, but I hear WAY too much of that kind of prediction coming mainly from the "I don't like Hillary" camp. FUCK THAT SHIT. Just FUCK THAT SHIT. They claim it's far more important to stay home and pout and sulk and ruin it for all the rest of us because doing so will lead directly to handing over the White House to the GOP. And to the pouters and sulkers I'd say - IS THAT WORTH IT????? Seriously??? Will you be happy THEN????? You've just gotta shit in the big punch bowl, 'eh? Yep, THAT'LL sure as hell show everybody!!!! You're just gonna luv-luv-luv the results.

JUST FUCKING FUCK THAT SHIT.

I vote for Supreme Court pickers. There won't be ANYONE from the other side who'll do a respectable job on that score. THAT you can take straight to the bank, right this very instant. We're liable to get two or three more scalias if we let that happen! I would hope the pouters and the sulkers would at least see a particle of wisdom in THAT. At least!

Sorry to be so hard-ass'd about it. But I'm really starting to get a just a wee bit sick of this shit. I swear sometimes it seems as though there are people here, who aren't even trolls, who are just TRYING to stir things up and rock the boat til it tips over. And then we ALL get to drown, 'eh, just so they could grandstand on some "principle"?

I'd humbly remind everybody - THIS IS POLITICS. "Principle" unfortunately has very little to do with it. You get in it to WIN. PERIOD. Then you can quibble about the details and the principles later. But, DAMMIT, first you have to WIN!!!

Stinks sometimes, but that's just how it is. Whether any of us likes it or not. And frankly, I don't have time to quibble about stuff when there's a BIG PICTURE that needs ALL of our attention.
