Rousey is a 28 year-old woman. Major Hogwash Nov 2015 #46

And many fewer Americans have heard of her than even Bernie Sanders. n/t pnwmom Nov 2015 #45

Nov 9: McClatchy/Marist Poll: Hillary Clinton Leads All Republicans Nationally SunSeeker Nov 2015 #12

Sanders is more electable than Clinton. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #21

Nope. Sanders has not been hit with the GOP onslaught of lies like Hillary has. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #26

Is that the latest attempt to win over Sanders supporters: Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #29

Why do you think the GOP is trying to help Bernie get the nomination? SunSeeker Nov 2015 #31

Those links don't confirm your words. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #33

OK, you don't have to believe what they say. How about what they do? SunSeeker Nov 2015 #35

Because Clinton's campaign is doing all the attacking for them? eom Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #36

Hardly. Bernie has pretty much gone unscathed up to now. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #49

Because racism and sexism and socialism haven't been hurled at him as accusations? Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #59

Oh please. How many negative ads have been run against Bernie---by anyone? nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #63

"Is he going to fight back with the 2 million he got from his supporters?" BeanMusical Nov 2015 #38

LOL. Good luck competing with the billion(s) in GOP super pac money with that. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #50

Simple math. rhett o rick Nov 2015 #73

LOL. What math? You offer no numbers. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #74

I don't need numbers. And some moderate Republicans have come forward to support rhett o rick Nov 2015 #84

It is simply not true that no Republicans will vote for Hillary. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #87

Then you explain how Clinton will get more votes in the general. nm rhett o rick Nov 2015 #89

Money, Organization, Message. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #90

How is she going to convince Sen Sanders supporters to vote for her? rhett o rick Nov 2015 #91

Hillary's voting record is to the left of Obama and Biden. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #93

"a Bernie supporter sitting home and letting the GOP take the White House." Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #95

2016 is not a midterm FFS. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #96

That doesn't make a difference if the candidate engenders low enthousiasm Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #97

Hillary supporters have lots of enthusiasm. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #98

But the majority of the millennials are not died-in-the-wool Hillary enthousiasts. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #100

2010 & 2014 were midterms. That is why the youth vote fell off so precipitously. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #117

Clinton's voting record is to the right of Sanders and even to the right of Obama. rhett o rick Nov 2015 #115

Nope. Hillary is rated "hard core liberal," just like Elizabeth Warren and to the left of Obama. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #116

OntheIssues has been debunked. They forgot about her vote to help the Republicons invade rhett o rick Nov 2015 #121

And yet she creams Sanders among liberal Dems. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #122

only in your mind. How can a Democrat support someone that takes millions for rhett o rick Nov 2015 #123

Hillary's donors are the same as Obama's. You can't win without big money. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #124

That's self-identified. A lot of conservative Democrats think they are liberal while supporting rhett o rick Nov 2015 #125

People know themselves better than you do, rhett o rick. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #127

If one is ok with the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi's they ain't liberal no matter how well they say rhett o rick Nov 2015 #132

Her favorability ratings bode ill for her appeal across party lines. n/t Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #94

Her ratings are better than Bernie's right now. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #99

The other way around, I think. n/t Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #101

Hillary's net favorable rating is 63%; Bernie's is 38%. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #102

That's among democrats. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #105

Hillary has been gaining among Independents way more than Bernie. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #107

Independents are Trump-like people, who agree a bit with both parties. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #108

Obama absolutely did go for Independents. And won because of them. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #109

If even in 2008 48% of the independents went for McCain, Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #110

Besides Independents, Obama won because of huge support among PoC and women. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #111

The Millennial vote had nothing to do with it, then? Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #112

The millenials pretty much stayed home in 2012 and Obama still won big. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #113

So you don't need us? Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #135

Most voters pick a candidate they need, not a candidate who needs them. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #136

And Clinton is not needed by the millennials, then. eom Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #139

Millenials need her if they don't want to be ruled by the GOP. nt SunSeeker Nov 2015 #142

Vote Clinton or else? Really? There we go again with the "lesser of two evils" argument. Betty Karlson Nov 2015 #145

Same as in November 2007... Hepburn Nov 2015 #70

Sanders is not Obama. SunSeeker Nov 2015 #75
