Most of the middle class families I grew up with had summer homes down the (Jersey) shore, not a billionaire in the group.

Most people can afford a $7 sandwich from a good deli. Most people can't afford to drop money on a third home.

reference: primary

Question: Why would a Democrat who, like myself, wants to see Secretary Clinton win the popular vote by double digits AND our party take back both houses of Congress, attempt to demigrate her best spokesperson to her weakest demographic?

I may have supported someone else during the primary, but I want to see a victory by Secretary Clinton that is epic not only for what it represents but also for how it trounces a party which has been reduced to purveyors of hatred.

A home in his constituency, a home where he works and a summer place bought with the proceeds of a family property?

Yeah - that is EXACTLY the billionaire issue he talked about.

Ready to let the primary go yet?

During the primary this might have been relevant but not now.

I'm not a Sanders supporters either. I was a delegate for Hillary at my precinct convention.
