2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: How embarrassing will two more Losses on Tuesday be to the presumptive Nominee? [View all]timmymoff
(1,947 posts)33. Dang that is very damaging
Not nearly as damaging as being in the tank for every wall st investment firm and bank. Nor nearly as damaging as courting Jeb Bush and Ted Cruz donors. Oh and didn't she even accept money from the presumed republican nominee? and the private prison lobby. And Big oil. and big pharma, and the healthcare industry. Seems her acceptance of monies has no limits, and some still call her a democrat. I guess Zell Miller was also a democrat. As was John Breaux. And Max Baucus. Hell even war hawk Lieberman was once called a democrat. Aren't you proud to be in that company of people? Good luck in November, you'll need it.
