Bullshit bravenak Jun 2016 #123

if Hillary is what passes for LEFT, the USA is so fucked AntiBank Jun 2016 #125

She is. More left left than center left in this country bravenak Jun 2016 #128

just because she is to the left of a rethug, that in no ways makes her left of centre overall AntiBank Jun 2016 #135

Ah, so Sanders is lying and we should not take him at his often repeated words? seabeyond Jun 2016 #59

I have no idea. TimPlo Jun 2016 #67

Sanders has repeatedly stated that he is taking it to the convention and fight to flip SDs seabeyond Jun 2016 #88

So when he does that TimPlo Jun 2016 #93

No, I am not gonna wait day after day after day to see if he changes his mind. I am addressing seabeyond Jun 2016 #97

So Clinton has a massive ego? TimPlo Jun 2016 #100

So will of the voters only matter when you are x number over? TimPlo Jun 2016 #107

Clinton was ahead in the popular vote and why she considered it. As I said, nothing comparable. seabeyond Jun 2016 #108

But the popular vote is not a good indication of something TimPlo Jun 2016 #110

Of course one can use it as a yard stick adn you are back pedaling. Clinton has it in every way, seabeyond Jun 2016 #112
