May 2016

That is sad. Thanks for playing though!

I have worked for lots of women from my generation who thought to get ahead they had to be toughter and harder than any man they were competing with. They were wrong.

Woman politicians of Hillary's (which is my generation) was wrong. She became toghrper and harder and as arrogant but she lost her soul.

And worse she stayed with a man that embarrassed her nationally for the power! That is the biggest pity if all. I kind of hope she wins so she finds it was not worth it after all. And I voted for him and was sad about that!

Love always wins. It takes longer but it wins. And it is better now than it was when I was young. Hell I was fired for getting pregnant! Silly me! Now we have extended leave so mothers AND fathers can bond with third newborn.

The world is a much better place and we are making progress not enough and not as much as I would like. But Hillary has not contributed on wit to the progress. Not from her one woman one man sacred marriage speech to her we must bring them to"heelfirst", then address the problem.

Real woman address the problem first they don't punish children!!!!

No he won't. He's made that clear. morningfog May 2016 #13

Yes he has. ucrdem May 2016 #18

No it doesn't. He would have to start last month getting on ballots. morningfog May 2016 #20

Baseless, yes, but let's be clear: Sanders no longer presents a threat to Dems in November. ucrdem May 2016 #22

Same possibility as Hillary shaving her head and leaving the race to join the Hare Krishna, sure. Scootaloo May 2016 #27

LOL, now THAT might affect the outcome in November. nt ucrdem May 2016 #30

I so wish she would. Autumn May 2016 #51

I'm glad he won't. It's not in the long term interests of a big tent party to not try to unite. ancianita May 2016 #61

Bernie will never rush to join the Hare Krishna. Autumn May 2016 #68

Yeah, just what we need senz May 2016 #67

Yeah. And pigs might fly out of my butt. cherokeeprogressive May 2016 #83

He rejected it from the get-go. senz May 2016 #73

It was never a bargaining chip! Silver_Witch May 2016 #130

It wouldn't help, no, but at this point the Bernie rump is not going to be all that helpful anyway. ucrdem May 2016 #9

You FINALLY found a scenario where Clinton wins! arcane1 May 2016 #7

After California and NJ get through voting ucrdem May 2016 #11

Absolutely. If Clinton runs against Trump, she wins. If Clinton runs against Sanders and Trump, seabeyond May 2016 #10

There's no doubt that Trump is taking cues from Sanders. ucrdem May 2016 #15

You need votes to win. Scootaloo May 2016 #36

Over 80% of Sanders People will comfortably vote for Clinton. Nt seabeyond May 2016 #40

Wouldn't hurt for her to make the effort to make sure and cement that. Scootaloo May 2016 #43

You know what? Not my place. Not Clinton's place. It is not enough for her to reach out. seabeyond May 2016 #84

It's Clinton's job to convince people to vote for her. Scootaloo May 2016 #86

I disagree. I do not think Clinton has done all the stuff you allot her. I think by her policies seabeyond May 2016 #89

I've yet to see you or any of her supporters enumerate her policies. Scootaloo May 2016 #90

Clintons policies are not one liners, or two words, like free college, free healthcare. seabeyond May 2016 #91

If Sanders run 3rd Party he'll get my vote. Tierra_y_Libertad May 2016 #12

Sanders isn't running 3rd party. Hillary wouldn't win if he did but he's NOT RUNNING AS A 3rd PARTY! Attorney in Texas May 2016 #14

Of course he's not. And of course he'd lose again if he did. But so would Trump. ucrdem May 2016 #17

It's all acedemic because he won't run third party. morningfog May 2016 #19

He doesn't take half Dems in a 3-party race. ucrdem May 2016 #21

It's not going to happen, but I would be interested in seeing three-way polling. morningfog May 2016 #23

You're right, it isn't going to happen. nt ucrdem May 2016 #25

New voters don't favor Dems when Clinton sits on top of the ticket. Not with Bernie still an option. Betty Karlson May 2016 #24

Hard to say but conservatively they split. If they were already R they'll stay R of course. nt ucrdem May 2016 #26

Nope. Sanders has cross-over appeal in that age bracket. Betty Karlson May 2016 #28

He's pitching to them but then would they have voted in November anyway? ucrdem May 2016 #31

Nope: if he is on the ticket, they will come out to vote. Betty Karlson May 2016 #87

Yes, they'd vote for Bernie, and he might even win Vermont. ucrdem May 2016 #92

"he might even win Vermont" - where did I hear that before? Betty Karlson May 2016 #103

72% of Sanders supporters are already indicating that they'll vote for Clinton in November. TwilightZone May 2016 #97

That's only his Democratic supporters. His independent supporters show detest Clinton Betty Karlson May 2016 #102

A lot of Rs in my area do NOT like Trump and they hate Clinton. Go figure. At this point, Hiraeth May 2016 #32

Bernie would doubtless get a substantial turnout, maybe some electoral votes, ucrdem May 2016 #33

He won't. This is ludicrous conspiracy theory junk from hill fans cali May 2016 #34

Of course he won't. But the pitch isn't coming from us. nt ucrdem May 2016 #35

Hill fans aren't the ones suggesting he run third-party. Look around. TwilightZone May 2016 #46

Hey, did you say "bring it on?" So you WANT rateyes May 2016 #37

To clarify, I mean "bring it on if you insist." No, I'm not endorsing it. ucrdem May 2016 #38

did you take into account where he can't get on the ballot because of sore loser laws DLCWIdem May 2016 #116

No just filing deadlines which are through this summer with one in early September. ucrdem May 2016 #120

Of course you are endorsing it. Silver_Witch May 2016 #138

Cool. Then nobody should take issue if he does it. Joe the Revelator May 2016 #41

Translation: some Hill Folk fear a 3rd party run. senz May 2016 #42

If it isn't happening there's nothing to be afraid of. And no, it isn't happening. nt ucrdem May 2016 #53

It's not happening, not "If it isn't..." No other reason to say that besides stirring the pot! TheBlackAdder May 2016 #66

Exact same words. ucrdem May 2016 #70

You know. Playing coy or ignorant doesn't work. TheBlackAdder May 2016 #75

It isn't going to happen. Can we agree on that at least? ucrdem May 2016 #82

If you don't think this will happen why did you write the OP? St Aug girl May 2016 #78

Because there might be some who would like it to. The point is that it wouldn't matter. nt ucrdem May 2016 #79

re: "It might be harder but she still wins." thesquanderer May 2016 #59

My concern is she "wins," but not with a majority of voters. I think it goes to Congress then and Hoyt May 2016 #60

I get a big win for Clinton on this electoral map: ucrdem May 2016 #65

I hope you are right. Hoyt May 2016 #72

I think Bill got less than 50% of voters in 92 ucrdem May 2016 #81

Yep, he did, but Perot was in the race. TwilightZone May 2016 #95

Huh, that's interesting. TwilightZone May 2016 #96

She doesn't need a majority. Popular vote doesn't elect the president. TwilightZone May 2016 #94
