2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Say it ain’t so: Alan Grayson endorses Hillary Clinton [View all]... I'll address this another way, and it is my own personal opinion. The "under the bus" thing, I believe, is something Hillary supporters came up with because it perfectly describes those people who were okay or great until they endorsed her. Then they became corporatsts, warmongers, 1 percenters etc. It's kind of like the memes Bernie's supporters use such as, "it's her turn", the "Anointed One", waiting for the "coronation", the "chosen one" etc. Words you hear from plenty of Sander's supporters, but as far as I know have never been uttered by a single Clinton supporter. Hope this clears that up for you.

I'm far left. Never could stomach him. I think he's a repulsive loud mouthed phony.
