40. The only one I was annoyed by was Hillary, LOL.

May 2016

For not getting out of the race when it became clear she was not going to win, and for some of the things she had said. I was a huge Obama fan. But Hillary won me over at the convention, and this time around I started supporting her fairly early on (after an initial start of being neutral). And now I'm far more annoyed at Bernie for not getting out or at least toning things down - this time around the winner is far clearer, and his aggression in his attacks on her is far worse than anything she ever did. And I'm skeptical about his ability to be gracious in defeat like Hillary was back then.
