Bernie’s all talk; it’s Hillary who can deliver

[fun n serious]

"Instead of working to build relationships in Congress, practicing compromise at home and abroad, and settling for solid, incremental progress, Sanders will charge forward with his revolution and, over four or eight years in office, achieve nothing of substance. Democrats will be seen as ineffective and Republicans will cruise (and possibly Cruz, as in Ted) into the White House, taking away the hard-won advances Obama has made over the past eight years, especially for minorities.

I don’t want a president who simply tells me what I want to hear.

I want a president who understands that our problems are complicated and can’t be solved all at once.

I want a president who can make the necessary compromises if the alternative is achieving nothing at all.

Sanders can’t do any that. He doesn’t know how to do that. He doesn’t know how to turn his rhetoric into reality.

5. Is this a joke?

Hillary Clinton will be able to achieve progressive results with a Republican House? Because all of a sudden Republicans are going to forget about Benghazi!!! and Emails!!!!!
Hillary will be able to achieve remarkable results because the House Impeach Hillary Hearings that start on Day One won't slow her roll one iota?

7. Don't you worry about Hillary.. she can take on the M$M, BS, and the gop.

[livetohike]

12. And Sanders will do what? Anger is not a plan. Hasn't helped him

accomplish much of anything in 25 years in Congress. Only a handful of his colleagues have endorsed him- a handful. No one in Congress thinks he would make a good President.

15. I remind you this is

the Hillary Clinton Group. If you want to post right wing talking points, take it to Bernie's group or GD: P please.

6. How many single-digit posters does that make in the HRC group so far today?

I've seen three. Now, because I am a HRC supporter, I don't go to the BS group, but I am willing to bet they don't have the troll infestation we have (except the obvious ones, that is.)

8. Too damn many.. and then they get shown the door and most times told why.

So interesting how people are seeing, saying, writing everything we think also. Seems this is happening more and more. It's good to know that not the whole world has gone bananas on us.
