If [name] is the nominee, [terrible thing] will happen
Anyone else getting sick of this lame fortune-telling? If you want to discuss a candidate's merits, do it without posting dumbass predictions which are about as valid an indication of possible future events as my cat's farts.

Seriously, it's the most pathetically transparent way to trash a candidate while pretending to be concerned about the big bad future.

1. It's the primaries
We always say these kinds of things. Then, a few uf take our balls and say we dont't want to play. The rest get behind the nominee.

4. i hope so
But I hate reading Dems saying - when we have strong candidates across the board - "oh, if X gets it, we're doomed". That's the kind of stuff which leads to defeatism in the GE, and unprotested stolen elections.
