It's a Hillary REVOLUTION!!



http://www.huffingtonpost.com/peter-d-rosenstein/five-for-five-and-its-hil_b_9476182.html

The second super-Tuesday primaries have come and gone. Five wins for Hillary including Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, Illinois and Missouri have increased her pledged delegate lead to over 300. Realistically that signals the end of Bernie Sanders chance at the nomination. The lead is even bigger than it looks as explained by Philip Bump in the Washington Post. Add to that her tremendous lead in superdelegates and Bernie Sanders has close to zero chance of being the Democratic nominee. Voters have shown they understand the man who says he only ran as a Democrat for the media attention and because it was affordable wouldn't make a good standard bearer for the Party.

Whether or not he ends his Don Quixote like quest for the nomination will be something for him to decide. If he continues to campaign, which is likely, he will hopefully focus on issues and stop attacking Hillary and doing the work of Republicans.


When it comes to the political 'revolution' Bernie Sanders keeps talking about it appears it isn't going quite how he envisioned. The 'revolution' is for Hillary. She now has 2,700,000 more actual votes than Sanders and 1,600,000 more than Donald Trump. It is a revolution which includes registered Democrats, African Americans, women, Latinos, the LGBT community, and people with disabilities who are casting their ballots for her.

It is a revolution in support of the most brilliant, passionate, and prepared person running for President. The person whose election will make a statement to the world about what is best in America when on January 20, 2017 the United States swears in its 45th and first woman President.

"Her campaign led by Robby Mook and John Podesta put together an amazing young, diverse and effective operation. Men, women, gay, straight, transgender, Latino, African American, White, Asian, people with disabilities, and others from every ethnic group. Hillary has shown everyone she learns from her mistakes and no one, even someone as brilliant as Hillary, can live life without making some. She clearly learned from her loss in 2008 what she had to do to win in 2016."

It's Hillary's Revolution.. started with Obama's Reality Revolution in 2008 and Hillary is carrying through to 2017 and beyond.

Thank you!

The comments, as always, often want to make me vomit. For example, the assertion that BILL CLINTON is the creator of the deregulation mess. Of course, we all know better. That was part of Reaganomics, Trickle Down, and a Thousand Points of Light.

I can say, FROM EXPERIENCE, as a young single mother at the time, that Bill Clinton was GREAT for the economy and helped make my life better. On the other hand, Reagan and the first Shrub, both made it so my life became that much more difficult EACH and EVERY day.

So, please, any Bernie supporter who truly believes that Bill Clinton was bad for us, or that Hillary Clinton is not enough of a progressive, READ. Don't believe the talking points and the right wing smear which has been ongoing for over 25 years. Look at HER record, which is one of advocacy, and which truly shows her work ethic.
