61. Yeah .... sure ....

Nobody but me wants Joe .... and yeah, I run this joint ... what of it ? .... (sheeesh ...)

Let's put it this way - You are saying you want a Democrat to NOT try to achieve office, and I am saying I want a Democrat to try to achieve office if they have the energy and ideas and wherewithall to do so ....

I say 'Let the best man win' .... (paraphrased)

You say 'Let only the man I want to win, win' (paraphrased)

You insist Joe has no support ? .... Fine - The voters will speak for themselves (once they get past your intransigence and your stern words here) ....

I/we will vote for Joe ... I/we will vote for Hillary .... I/we will vote for ANY Democrat who emerges the victor (most of us here will) .....

That will be the reality, which is largely out of your control.
