Just vote for Hillary, we'll fix it later...



Yeah, will fix it like Libya, Syria, Iraq, Wall Street crime, using public office for personal gain and job losses to Asian sweat shops and tax shelters.

If there is one thing we know, Hillary refuses to learn from her many, many mistakes. But notice a pattern ... while her mistakes hurt us, she profits nicely.

They say things to their base during the elections, but when elected never quite get around to it .. . but somehow, they all end up millionaires. (except Bernie isn't a millionaire)

Your post exemplifies something that has long confused me about Clinton supporters, especially since she augmented her lead on March 15. If Clinton has it all wrapped up, and there is not the slightest chance that Sanders will win, then what is the point of disagreeing with adherents of the supposedly doomed Sanders campaign?

It's particularly puzzling that Clinton supporters would be unnecessarily hostile in tone, as your post is. What happened to pivoting to the general election? Clinton, if she's the nominee, will want the votes, money, and volunteer time of people who now support Sanders. Do you believe that your post is likely to increase or to decrease the extent to which Sanders people provide that support?

Instead of promotion.

Just vote for Sanders. After decades as a politician he will all of the sudden gain influence, respect, and really show his leadership skills in Washington.

Look at her trust polling numbers. Maybe you will figure it out. Maybe not. I guess not.

ignoring common sense. When the smoke clears, they've collected their bonus and moved on leaving chaos in their wake.

Goldman sachs or jp morgan? Your response perfectly illustrates the arrogant attitude of the political elite. Unbelievable reply.. You boiled down anger and resentment about massive inequality and disparity to the process of choosing a bank

To be fair it's only a matter of time before Hillary and DWS out source the campaign to India just like Chase.

Amazingly tone deaf reply. Its something I'd expect from someone who sounds like they ride the Google bus past the tent city and yells "get a job".

Nicely done.

She is following the same strategy as many others. Make any compromise or adjustment necessary to get elected, then let your conscience kick in. It's a nice theory, but that second phase doesn't always work out.
