I am sure they deeply respect everything Hillary stands for.

Many GOP women are legitimately against abortion, against same sex rights, against social programs and the like, but they also are profoundly disturbed by Trump's general attitude toward women and his temperment. I can't imagine how I would vote if the positions were reversed. If the Democrats had nominated someone so manifestly unfit for office with a GOP candidate with whom I disagreed on pretty much every issue. Fortunately I don't have that problem.

but threaten their birth control and that's where I think they'll draw the line. Pence is anti-birth control and an anti-abortion extremist even in cases of rape, incest, and threats to the life of the mother. He couldn't care less if a woman died from a high-risk pregnancy, even in cancer cases or ectopic pregnancies. He'd also yank a married woman's birth control and force her to have more kids than she could afford.

women have very little in common with Hillary, but the ones who want a sane -- as opposed to a mentally disordered -- President, are considering voting for Hillary despite their lack of agreement on the issues.

major media, so they're seemingly off to a good start. No mention of funding, so I went ahead and sent them $5. I'll be deleting emails from new sources for a while, no doubt.

I am not the only one here who has left the dark side and come into the light. And it was not a 'Saul on the road to Demascus' moment. But a small thing that lead to a larger enlightenment.

So I welcome them and hope they continue to see the folly of their ways.

white men deserting the Democrats for the Republicans, there will be white women deserting the Republican party for Hillary.

I hope the change is not limited to women!! But I agree. With the changing demographics even a 2% change in the white vote will sink the republicans.

Trump is doubling down on the Romney goal of getting enough white vote to win. In did not work for him and will be worse for Trump.

I agree this could be a watershed election. Not all republicans are racist and with trump exposing the naked ugliness of the base of the party, many will leave.

to "make a statement" and throw their votes away.

....and is horrified by the prospect, than try to communicate with someone whose logic is so twisted they'd rather see a Fascist installed in the WH than a qualified woman with whom they disagree on some issues.

Hell's Bells.

because I don't believe in alerts. You can have your say. Many of us progressive "idiots" are voting for Hillary and gladly doing so. But every single citizen has a choice and calling them idiots proves only arrogance and nothing more. Voting for qualities you support is not "throwing your vote away." Such an offensive statement.

"useful idiots."

This is a Democratic website, and it isn't divisive to say that we should vote for Hillary and not throw our votes away in order to make a statement.

...they are republicans in reality. If their nominee were someone less bombastic and outwardly crazy, they would have just kept voting republican - idiots in other words.

The republican establishment didn't respect tea party morons, but were glad to take their vote. I'll take the vote of these republican women though - sure. Maybe they will see the light, but I won't hold my breath.

Clearly states the idiots are progressives who throw their votes away-not voting for the Democratic nominee.

No violation of TOS and I would guess most here would totally agree.

Have a nice day.

To deliver very disparaging remarks about women also.

what sort of sane person supports any of that nonsense?

That's being charitable, even.

I'm wondering - given that this candidate reflects chamber of commerce ideology - how the TPP situation will play out. To me that's still a big question mark.

dislikes the positions of Clinton, Sanders, and Trump.

On the campaign trail, it’s not unusual for the rhetoric to escalate and exaggerate as candidates vie for attention in a crowded media landscape.

But there’s no excuse for what we’ve heard this year, as candidate after candidate has thrown caution — and facts — to the wind when it comes to trade.

To correct the record, we’ve taken a closer look at some of the wilder and woolier proposals we’ve heard from candidates Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders, and Hillary Clinton:

I'm wondering how Lim will respond to Clinton's policy on TPP which seems sort of mushy right now and should she finally advocate against TPP .

It's pretty obvious trade policy is in flux much to the chagrin and frustration of the corporatist chamber of commerce. Does anyone need the chamber to inform us of that fact?

and now you're saying the Chamber is being frustrated. Make up your mind.

I thought that was obvious. Sorry if it was not.

Are you stalking since my comment about divisive talk?

It is amazing to see how effectively @elizabethforma gets under Trump’s skin. He’s like a bot of fuming insecurity.
