(765 posts)33. Joy in my heart
I voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016 with joy in my heart. I would vote for Hillary Clinton again with joy in my heart. I cannot say the same about the prospect of voting for Bernie Sanders, which makes me want to throw up in my mouth.
The Sanders campaign can go straight to hell with their "do as I say, not as I do" arrogance and entitlement.
I swear, watching the Sanders campaign, I feel like I'm watching some skit about a parody of a campaign and waiting for the punchline that never comes.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Bernie would be my "hold your nose" candidate even more than Bloomberg.

I don't like use of this term for either Hillary or Bernie, but it is political shorthand

Not showing very good judgement on the part of the campaign or the candidate who hired her.

What we don't need is a campaign staffer for the candidate who lost the last primary being divisive
