(132 posts)Seriously, WHO. REALLY. WANTS. TO. DEAL. WITH. ALL. THIS. BULLSHIT???!
Scandals, Wall Street ties, bullshit email crap, yes (then no) on seemingly every freaking issue. Can't get a straight answer out of her. Negative campaigning. Underhanded tactics coordinated with the DNC. Freaking SuperPacs that she somehow is OK with now, but will reform them in the future. Can't even argue about the issues, but emphasizes petty shit like "who's more progressive" and "look at all my quid pro quo ENDORSEMENTS (har, har). "But I have a FIVE POINT PLAN!" Blah, blah, blah. It's all vague, vague blather.
W.T.F!?? Where are the goddamn adults in this country?
We've got one guy who's:
1. Truly progressive (in the Roosevelt/Kennedy sense).
2. Fights for the little guy and the working class, and has for longer than I've been alive.
3. Would get us out of all these frickin' wars.
4. Believes in equality and justice, no matter the issue.
5. Honest, consistent platform his ENTIRE CAREER.
How is there even question of who is the right choice for Democrats? I look at Nate Silver's site, all the polls, and I absolutely weep at the prospect of our country going down the same shithole since Reagan. Why can't we ever, collectively, do the right, proper thing?
