Hillary Clinton
In reply to the discussion: "Senator, you are forming a mob of angry ...." [View all]Nonhlanhla
(2,074 posts)56. This is the part that worries me.
At this point I hope that this nomination process runs its course quickly. Bernie does not have a significant chance to get the nomination anymore, and the longer he stays in and whips his supporters into a frenzy, the more damage he is doing to Hillary. I'm all for democracy, but it's become clear that a great deal of the Bernie campaign is built on serious distortions regarding Hillary and her record. As such, people who might otherwise vote for Hillary in the GE, develop such a distorted, monstrous image of her that it becomes impossible for them. As a progressive, this worries me. So I hope this primary season runs it course quickly, so that we can get on to the business of kicking the Republicans' butts.

Wow. Pretty much agree with everything the author has said, except for "I like you. I admire you."

Still not seeing it. If that's supposed to be a "popular revolt", they're doing it wrong.

If there is an angry mob of voters, perhaps the question that should be asked is why they are angry.
