Every new slander, smear, and slur makes me even prouder to support Hillary in 2016.

The vitriolic ones don't know us, have never walked in our shoes, and likely never will. Those who actually do know us know who and what we are and don't need to resort to insults. We don't have to "prove" anything to them. They will be very proud to vote to elect the first woman US President with us in the GE - even if some may for the moment prefer Bernie.

As for the vitriolic ones, they are their own worst enemies. If that's how they want to live their lives, I pity them, because they will never be happy - with anyone or anything.
