when U.S. citizens are given the choice between horrible and more horrible. This is the ultimate lesser of 2 evils election and I predict a historically low turnout.

an excellent shot at winning big here. I don't think too many Californians like the primary system which puts us last in the voting booth, but this year it could work to our advantage. We have a great opportunity to send the establishment the loud and clear message that we're not going to have Hillary shoved down our throats. Need to donate and work like hell to make it happen.

3. No, but looking at Trump it's a fairly urgent argument.

I think the larger case is that Hillary can shepherd through a center-left agenda of tax increases on the wealthy, a strengthening of the ACA, more liberals on the Supreme Court, raising the minimum wage, etc.

But to be frank, because of her past history, there isn't much Hillary can do to earn my vote. Period.

13. What's crazy is Obama didn't rally around "Vote Obama or you get McCain"

Who, by the way, is every bit as delusional and scary as Trump.

Nope, Obama won everyone over with "hope and change".

And sold it to undecideds convincely.

Hillary must also "win" Sanders supporters, independents and undecideds.
