Hillary Clinton

(42,862 posts)... but then I realized that it doesn't matter. Sure, it's annoying to read ... and it's frustrating to be insulted ... but it really doesn't matter. This website is a closed ecosystem that really doesn't match the reality of what people perceive and think out in the real world.
Not ONE of my friends has ever heard of this place. None of my family members has ever heard of this place. My circle of friends, family, and colleagues spans many generations, income levels, political variations, education levels, ethnic and cultural backgrounds, etc. --- and NONE of them has ever heard of this web site.
Some have said that they'll "check-it-out" when I've mentioned it to them... but when I followed-up to ask their opinion, they'd never bothered to look. This is a niche website for a very specific type of individual. It's NOT the "go-to" source for the average Joe and average Jane to learn more about politics or their candidates. (It's great fun and all, but it's no Wikipedia, and it's no Google.)
In the same way that the attacks here don't matter much, any attempts to debunk them won't matter much either. It's "entertaining" I suppose, but beyond that, it's a complete waste of time.
Hillary is doing fine BECAUSE she's a strong candidate ... not because of (and not in-spite-of) the messages posted here. Similarly, Bernie won't win the nomination BECAUSE Hillary is the better choice ... not because of (and not in-spite-of) the messages posted here.
