That is, the ones who want to win at any cost. They are like people at the racetrack who only bet on a horse to win. They could hate a horse one week, and the next week they love that horse because it's the favorite. They might have a pet issue or two that they think Hillary will be on their side with (Supreme Court!!11!), but they don't really care about the other issues. It's one reason why they can't discuss her policies in any depth.

It's interesting to see how many of these people who were virulently anti-Hillary in 2008 are now virulently pro-Hillary in 2015.
