64. Even if one has to sell ones soul for a woman POTUS?
Mon Mar 21, 2016, 01:28 PM
Mar 2016

That is the measure?

First, I will unhesitatingly support the Democratic nominee, no matter who it is.

My problem is that I do not think Hillary Clinton can win in November. Her approval polling has been below sea level for months and the GOP has made sure of that. Regardless of her capabilities and her political positions -- nearly all of which I disagree -- I will vote for her.

I think that she loses in November.
