Should Hillary drop out if she loses Wisconsin?

[left-of-center2012]

I heard on the news today that Hillary Clinton has lost five of the last six states to Bernie Sanders.
If she now loses Wisconsin, should she drop out of the race for the Democratic nomination?

1. She needs time to get ready for that much earned prison time

[geek tragedy]

5. this isn't Free Republic. nt

[yourpaljoey]

7. Please start paying attention

[CoffeeCat]

35. Yeah, well...

It's not Hillarybubble.com either.

Many Dem voters are concerned about her being investigated by the FBI.

[creon]

45. Are they now?

Ya think?

[Beacool]

9. Take that crap to a RW site.

The nerve of some people.......

[pinebox]

20. The nerve of some people to be so blind that they ignore relaity

Nope, no FBI investigation going on about an email server. No investigation going on about the Clinton Foundation. Nope, nothing, it's all Republicans fault. Sure.

[IdaBriggs]

44. Are you unaware that their is an FBI investigation going on because of HER DECISIONS?

She is the person who is 100% responsible for this scandal and it is being reported by reputable (not right wing) sources.

[joshcryer]

11. Wow.

Sad thing is this is probably a commonly held view here. Others are just too cowardly to speak their truth.

[reddread]

37. I doubt it is

I think most astute observers realize that connected offenders have various options available that Joe Blow
will never know.
Low level officials are given exits without recrimination within the system.

We aint stupid to how its done. the last turkey with his neck on the block over legal issues was Nixon.
and he got to leave without prosecution.

[joshcryer]

41. So you disagree with that poster?

You're putting the email thing up their with Nixon.

[PonyUp]

16. Time to be fitted for tailor-made orange pant suits? n/t

[Codeine]

18. JimRob?

You're lost.

[hrmjustin]

25. You troll poorly.

[creon]

46. Too funny

If you have proof of criminal conduct by Clinton, make a referral to the US Attorney.

[Kalidurga]

2. She should drop out. She can't deal with the tone of the opposition's campaign...

[PonyUp]

17. Plus she's tone-deaf to the 99%

[Kalidurga]

23. Nope she just doesn't like our tone either.

[RepubliCON-Watch]

3. If she loses Wisconsin...

That's a horrible sign for her moving forward and if she coughs it up in New York, she's toast!

[Vote2016]

4. other - she should drop out if the FBI recommends indictment; otherwise the candidate with the most

voter-assigned pledged delegates should get the nomination

[demwing]

22. Exactly

As long as she's competitive, she should stay in. Being indicted removes her from that club.

[MrWendel]

6. Definitely...

even if she has the most votes in either party by a large margin. Bernie Math strikes again.

[Starry Messenger]

8. Delgates are proportional.

[Beacool]

10. Too funny!!!

The candidate who is ahead should drop out.

[SheilaT]

12. Maybe. If she loses as badly as she

did in AK, WA, and HI she should. But I sincerely doubt it will be that much of a Bernie blowout. Even if he only gets 60% of the vote, she'll still be ahead of him in the regular delegate count, and so of course she should not drop out at this point. She'd be a fool to, just as Bernie would have been a fool to have dropped out after Super Tuesday.

This isn't going to be finally decided until June 7th, folks. Get used to that idea.

(Unless Hillary is indicted, which I sort of doubt will happen, but ya never know.)

[WhiteTara]

30. Of course, she won the previous 5

but who's counting?

[athena]

13. Be honest.

Were you arguing that Bernie should drop out after he lost eight straight states between Mississippi and Arizona? And would you be arguing that Bernie should drop out if he were further ahead of Hillary than Obama was ahead in 2008?

I suspect not. Therein lies the double standard.

[thereismore]

28. It's all tongue-in-cheek, obviously! Don't fight it. Enjoy.

[pampango]

14. Of course not. Democrats everywhere matter; not just those in the last 6 states or

in the next 6 states. Bernie did not do well n Super Tuesday. Thankfully, that was no reason for him to drop out either.

[brooklynite]

15. Will be be behind in the delegate count?

[bigwillq]

19. No (nt)

[Nye Bevan]

21. Should a baseball team that's leading 9-3 in the seventh inning

decide to forfeit the game because the other team scores one more run in the eighth inning than them?

[Kentonio]

24. No, she should drop out after losing California instead.

[livetohike]

26. So pathetic. Seriously. Have you checked the delegate count lately? You do understand that even if

Hillary loses Wisconsin, she will still accumulate delegates. Why on Earth would she drop out?

[pdsimdars]

27. I voted yes in the poll but actually "no" . . she should drop out NOW

[geek tragedy]

29. I'm sure she cares deeply.

"Oh dear, people who hate my guts want me to disappear. This is a shocking development."

[FuzzyRabbit]

31. If Bernie was supposed to drop out after the Iowa caucuses

as many Hillary supporters suggested, then Hillary should drop out after her disastrous results in the AK, WA, and HI caucuses.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

32. Nope, not at all.

And I say this as a staunch Sanders supporter.

[beaglelover]

33. This is a joke, right? LOL!!!!

[beaglelover]

34. She's over 2.5 million votes ahead of St Bernard. Why the fuck should she drop out if she loses

Wisconsin. The big prize, NY, is just on the horizon and she will win there and then it will all officially be over for St Bernard!!

[Optimism]

36. Stop quoting vote totals already!

When there's a mix of caucuses and primaries, "VOTE" totals are totally unrepresentative (kind of like those "Supers&quot .

Sadly (due to her playing fast and loose with laws pertaining to her Sec. of State stint) I think that "dropping out" will not ultimately be Hillary's decision. Why some Democrats insist on putting forward the candidate with the MOST negatives, the one who even Democrats ranks as the MOST dishonest, the one who is MOST disliked by the Dem base AND the vital Independents, well ...

Clinton is damaged goods (by her own actions), and if Dems end up nominating her then the chances of a scary Trump or Cruz Presidency improve greatly. Why is this so hard to understand for some? Who are these Superdelegates who would want to risk that? No friends of the working class Democrat base, that's for sure.

[workinclasszero]

38. Oh my...

[IdaBriggs]

39. No. I support Bernie. If indicted WHENEVER, OUT.

But other than that, let them both fight for their IDEAS and POLICIES - it makes our country stronger.

NOTE: IDEAS and POLICIES and NOT THE PERSONALITIES.

[KingFlorez]

40. I've never seen such nonsense

The further ahead in the delegate count she gets, the more that Sanders people say she should drop out. Basically what you are want is for Sanders to be just given the nomination regardless of whether he not he actually wins it.

[creon]

42. Why?

[Impedimentus]

43. I'm not going to vote because I know she doesn't care about my opinion.

Now if my name were Lloyd Blankfein, then she might care.

FEEL THE BERN - 2016
