I hope he realizes that at this point he has no choice. Downwinder May 2015 #7

He's more electable than Hill NotoriousRBG May 2015 #8

then please explain the polls DrDan May 2015 #12

We have barely even started yet. Folks just don't care too much for Hill. NotoriousRBG May 2015 #14

and that explains why Hill gets support from 6 out of 10 and Bernie DrDan May 2015 #21

Name recognition. I had to google Bernie Sanders to find out what he patricia92243 May 2015 #19

I am not denying that I like him also DrDan May 2015 #23

Wait, what? cwydro May 2015 #9

Acknowledging a candidate's weaknesses procon May 2015 #25

Still wondering why he cwydro May 2015 #32

Simple. Because the OP said so. SomethingFishy May 2015 #48

Aha! cwydro May 2015 #50

Not exactly the most obvious choice of self deprecating words, but procon May 2015 #56

Because he will be unable to compete against any of the GOP candidates Gothmog May 2015 #59

Fiorina has thrown a shit ton of money into her various losing campaigns.. frylock May 2015 #71

So money does not matter in political races and there is no need to fund a candidate? Gothmog May 2015 #73

Regardless, I'm serious about supporting him wherever that leads NT Lee-Lee May 2015 #37

I know that he literally told my parents this at Fighting Bob Fest 2014. PeaceNikki May 2015 #38

That's what I'm talking about Gman May 2015 #46

So when he says, "He's in it to win it" he is not telling the truth? Agnosticsherbet May 2015 #41

Depends on what "win" means ... JustABozoOnThisBus May 2015 #44

If his definition of win is different than what those who hear it think, then he is deceiving people Agnosticsherbet May 2015 #64

I think he may well aspire to win. Unvanguard May 2015 #60

His statement was not about being a good thing. "I am in it to win it." Agnosticsherbet May 2015 #66

Writing books doesn't generally make your voice heard. Unvanguard May 2015 #67

If he intendes to win it, I would support him, but as a party building exercise, Agnosticsherbet May 2015 #68

He sounds like he intends to win it. Unvanguard May 2015 #75

He's a stalking horse. A good one, too. MADem May 2015 #54

If he gets enough votes, he wins rock May 2015 #57

Yep, and that's part of why I'll probably vote for him in the primaries. Unvanguard May 2015 #58

No agenda showing here. 99Forever May 2015 #63

Sure, if by saying he's in it to win means he's not serious. AtomicKitten May 2015 #65

I hope people realize Gman is not serious about the OP A-Schwarzenegger May 2015 #70

Well at least you posted this in good faith and not to divide up DU further. Rex May 2015 #72

Even assuming your b.s. is true, he is STILL the best candidate out there right now. arcane1 May 2015 #74
