(24,411 posts)Clinton stayed in the whole way. South Dakota and Montana were the last states to vote in the Democratic Primary.
Hillary didn't concede until several days after those primaries. On June 7.
Goose. Gander.

(24,411 posts)Her unfavorables are just as bad as Trump's.
This is a disgrace.
She can't win a GE against Trump. He will tear her apart. In the battle of the a-holes, she will lose.
Sanders has treated her with kid gloves. Donald Trump will never be "sick and tired of hearing about her damn emails" I can tell you that. He will eviscerate her with the attacks, because it's just so easy.
Do you want a President Trump? I sure as hell don't. She can't be our nominee.

(6,476 posts)you must not pay much attention

(24,411 posts)In case YOU haven't noticed both Clinton and Trump have unfavorable that are in the shitter. Worse than in the shitter.
"Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton register net negative ratings in double digits, indicating the front-runners for each party's presidential nominations are viewed negatively at historic levels, according to a new CBS/New York Times poll.
Trump is at 57; Clinton at 52.
Really? You're going to quibble that because those numbers aren't identical that this is ok?
This is insanity that such a divisive, scandal-saturated, disliked person will be our nominee!!!
Stallion
(6,476 posts)You said just as bad Trump-and that's not close to correct.

CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)It's not only her high negatives--which CNN calls "historically high negatives"--it's her inability to appeal to the vast majority of Independents. 30 percent of Bernie supporters won't vote for her.
She has no pathway to the Presidency if she is our nominee.
Setting aside what you think of her policies and personality--she is a very bad strategy, if you want to win the White House.

(22,974 posts)Republicans (fascists) will rally behind their "strong leader" (Trump).
H. Clinton is a weak and deeply flawed candidate with lots of baggage. She panders to the right and spews platitudes to the left. She is seen as unprincipled and willing to say anything to get elected.

(68,868 posts)and that number will improve.
HooptieWagon
(17,064 posts)She will not get votes from a good percentage of Sanders supporters. Her poisoned earth campaign has bitten her in the ass...it was a poor strategy, but similar to other poor judgement decisions like Iraq, Libya, Syria, etc. she simply doesn't take into account the logical results of her bad choices.
