Rome Is Burning...

Literally Rome Is Burning This Time And The Fire Will Not Be Put Out With Water...

Or Threats Of The Other Side If Elected Will Be Worse. We Know That And...

Rome Is Burning Because Instead Of Winning a Primary Based On Who Is The Better Candidate, The Other Candidate Is Resorting To Character Attacks On A Man Who Has Voted With The Democrats For The Last 25 Years in Congress As A Independent....

If That Is Not "Party Loyalty" Who Knows What It Means. Rome Is Burning...

Because The Woman Who Those In The Establishment Has Chosen Has Supported A Litany Of Policies More Republican Than Democrat Like -- Depending On Whatever A Democrat Means Anymore. Rome Is Burning...

Sometimes Its Not About Winning As It Is About How One Win. Do They Win With Lies And A Former Republican That Threw Anita Hill Under The Bus -- Now Running The Back Door Attack Game On A Socialist From Vermont. Rome Is Burning...

As A Majority Of Millennials Was Not Inspired To Vote Before A 74 Year Old Man Entry Into The Race. And They Definitely Will Not Be With The 74 Year Old Man Out Of the Race. Rome Is Burning....

Generation X'ers have been Screwed Bad. They Have little to no Pensions, Social Security Hangs On A String and Their Home is Either Foreclosed Or Likely Has Lost Value Yet To Be Gained Back. They thank NAFTA and Glass-Stengel along with any Democratic Candidate working with those who want to privatize Social Security.

That is Not Bernie. Rome Is Burning...

Yes, Hillary Might Get The Temporary Victory. She Might. But She Will Not Win The Battle.

It Is A Battle For Hearts, Minds and The Future. Bernie Has Won That.

But Bernie Might Be Sidelined By Lies And Schemes. Yet, It Will Not Happen Without A Recourse For The Ones Who Believe Playing Dirty Is The Only Way To Win The Game.

Rome Has Burned!

Hillary was the 10th most liberal Senator in the Congress. This" Hillary is Republican" meme is total bullshit. She is not as liberal as BSS would like but middle America is not as far left as Bernie. Bernie would have zero chance in the GE- The Republicans want Bernie to win for that very reason.
