No, all of us here at DU will NOT vote for Hillary if it comes down to her or Trump. Some of us will write in Jill Stein of the Green Party. Jumping on the Hillary band wagon by compromising your principles is utterly distasteful. Trump is utterly disgusting. Hillary is utterly unappealing. It really bugs me to be told I'm expected to choose the lesser of two weevils. So much for democracy. Writing in Jill Stein won't get us much of anything, except, perhaps, the right to say "hell no!" to both the would-be dictator and to the pander-bear. It's not much, but at least I'll be able to live with myself for making that choice. Too bad we're a nation too ignorant to see the possibilities in the Bernie revolution. Oh well... I guess we'll get the government we deserve.
