In reply to the discussion: What is going on in northern Colorado? My whole dad's side and my brother turned into Trump lovers [View all]Drahthaardogs
(6,843 posts)63. OFFs... believe whatever you want.
She ran a brilliant campaign. Best ever.
Campaigned aggressively, never taking a historical state for granted.
She did not trust the blue wall and treated every state like a swing state.
She offered truly progressive ideas. Bernie was forced to parrot her positions on more than one instance to save face with the liberal base.
Unions we're clamoring to endorse her. She just spoke to the working men and women. She really connected with the populace.
There. Better now?
Excuse me while I go take a shower after that.
