people sit it out in November? Will you have the presence of mind to admit your little grain of salt into this? I don't expect you, but instead you will blame everybody but yourself. Nader will become Sanders and enter into the two minutes of hate lexicon. IF the stakes were not so high, I would be laughing. Actually I am. Nobody can be this stupid.

Oh don't But Trump me, who I vote for is my fucking business, or rather who I pretend to vote for.

The entire motivation of the "progressive" movement is to relive their romanticized visions of the 60s.

I fully agree with you, but you really will not understand why.Nor do I care if you do.

And if you think this is about the 60s, you are even more clueless than I thought. But people who trend Neolliberal, don't look for that term, tend to do that shit. It is so off putting. So what happens when you lose? Because you are making your contribution to that project.

By the way, do proceed, I am enjoying this. It is actually very, very, very funny.

You are doing great You get an A+ for effort.



There is a thesis somewhere in lack of self awareness though.

Oh and pro tip, if you think you are making me even a tad angry, actually no, I am emjoying this immensely. It is hilarious.

"wyldwolf"... Neither you nor I are alone in this growing disgust. Not only does my vote matter, but I am also a very active member of my local dem community and there are quite a few of us who... well, we will see how we feel in November, but the grains of salt are noticed. If this is what Clintons followers are about... Let's just say the arrogant, mean spirited and sometimes ignorant childishness is not at all endearing. As long as they get their little juvenile licks in for their own egos, that must be more important than our votes.

I wonder what deep insights they'll be sharing after the 16th when they can no longer post insults.

is my decision, You got that right.

But what you guys are doing, will lose voters in November, if this is what you consider unity, I really do not want to know what you consider division.

This is why this is highly entertaining.

Myself, I think I will be at Golden Hall, being a reporter again, trying to find out what is going on with my local races that affect people directly, But what you said about the OP, that unity project is getting more and more what, is the word I am looking for... off putting, that would be the nice way to put it. The other one I am thinking off would get a hide though.

"On foreign policy, Hillary Clinton is bad. Donald Trump is worse."
"Huffington Post: Clinton’s Flat and Misleading Foreign Policy Speech"
"Sanders to Clinton: Yes, Trump's Foreign Policy Ideas Are Scary. But So Are Yours"
"Susan Sarandon: Hillary Clinton “more dangerous” than Donald Trump"
"Bernie Sanders to Hillary Clinton: Yes, Trump's Foreign Policy Ideas Are Scary. But SO ARE YOURS"
