25. Why does she think this will win her votes
Mon May 16, 2016, 07:14 PM
May 2016

Sure this 2-fer may appeal to the people who already support her, but it will not help her win over Sander's supporters or undecided independents and Republicans.

I voted for him twice and considering the alternatives, I don't regret that. I have no reason to think he has learned from his mistakes, but I sure as hell have. So he's going to be the economy fixer-upper? I'd say the same thing to him as I would to her - How?

Bernie has been very good with specifics. One can certainly disagree with him, but he lays out exactly what he'll do and how he'll pay for it. Her plans, and how she explains them, are so long winded that it just sets off my bullshit meter.
