will be too embarrassed to say you voted for either horrid Hillary or dysfunctional Donald. May be time to stop painting your way into that corner.

Look, I understand you guys have your points and do want some reassurance directed at you beyond what you can find in her various statements and speeches.

But another point of view is that, after months, and for many of you probably decades, of villifying her, hoping she'll end up in prison, and serving the GOP by spreading vicious right-wing propaganda lies about her, if you are fortunate enough to have her for the next president, you will get far more than you deserve. As your president, whether you vote for her or Trump, she will owe you plenty. Right now, she owes you no more than she owes your counterparts, the tea-partiers.
