The "Hard Sell" is indicative of a poor selection. If he were solid, pressure would not be required. TheBlackAdder Jul 2016 #58

Wrong. There are many here who would disparage anyone who wasn't their first choice. pnwmom Jul 2016 #67

Outside of the Democratic bubble, this will prove to be a questionable choice. TheBlackAdder Jul 2016 #69

LOL. pnwmom Jul 2016 #73

I'm just pointing out that Sanders was "anti-gay" in similar ways to Kaine, annavictorious Jul 2016 #21

He also supported the TPP and deregulating Wall street and the Big banks bjobotts Jul 2016 #23

TPP is dead annavictorious Jul 2016 #26

TPP is not dead. Obama has teed it up very well for a possible passing in the lame duck session. FighttheFuture Jul 2016 #48

Literally nothing is going to pass in a lame-duck session. Arkana Jul 2016 #61

Seriously? You think that is not possible? Where HAVE YOU BEEN?! FighttheFuture Jul 2016 #118
