1. Another goddamned "supporters" thread.
Internet anonymity and the privacy of ballots are what allow people here to say they'll never vote for someone.
Privilege is what makes people actually fail to vote against the alternative. It may be fun to argue, but we need not believe what any poster says about a hypothetical future vote. |

10. The person who wrote this is very, very lucky.
She says that she genuinely likes them both.
People that feel that way are very fortunate, and I'm sure that it's difficult for them to understand that many of us DON'T like HRC. And, that does NOT equal hating. Many of us believe that HRC would be a catastrophe on foreign policy and domestic economic issues. Let me repeat that: A catastrophe. This should come as no surprise to HRC supporters since we have been very consistent since the beginning of this primary about this fact. So, it would not be a case of sour grapes if some Bernie supporters don't vote for HRC. It would be a case of some Bernie supporters not wanting to support someone that they STRONGLY disagree with on policy. It's a damn shame that she might win the nomination since there seems to be much fewer HRC supporters that would have had a problem voting for Bernie. But, it is what it is. And, some advice: Trying to GUILT Bernie supporters into voting for HRC will not work out well. I promise. |

Bridging hairs-breadth differences between Sanders and Clinton is an insurmountable obstacle for the Clinton haters, but they see the enormous gulf between Democrats and Republicans, and the Clinton haters treat them as conjoined twins.
They so desperately want 21st century America to be a replay of the Paris Commune. It isn't. We're rhyming to the tune of the Wiemar Republic instead. |

It wouldn't have taken much to allow people to shoot Japanese people in the streets with impunity. And that is how most people lost their lives in Germany, it wasn't just gas chambers. It was the government encouraging hate and murder. Our government just encouraged hate. Have a nice day.

69. So, Clinton and FDR are worse than Hitler? That's all kinds bullshit, and you know it.
The fact is that the RW has been trying for years to equate the Democratic Party and liberal & progressive policies with Nazi Germany. And unbelievably, astonishingly and outrageously Sanders supporters above have picked up that idea of equivalence and run with it.
There is no equivalence between Nazi Germany and the American Democratic Party - either in the 20th century or the 21st. Attempting to do so is reprehensible, indefensible, and really beyond the pale. We are facing a REAL FASCIST THREAT from the Republicans. Attacking Democrats and the Democratic party only helps the fascists. |

This is the dangerous game you are all playing even with the specter of DONALD TRUMP being President. At what point do YOU stop? Calling for all others to bow out of the race before it's even half over is so apparently self-serving, it hurts to think about it. You see, it isn't Clinton anyone hates.

pulling it right out of your, uh, . . . . . . . . . thin air?
Does it make you feel better, if you think it is blind hate? Rather than a fundamental disagreement with what she stands for.? I see posts all over the place talking about REASONS why they disagree with her. Rather than face any of those issues, the Hillary worshippers refuse to look at issues, and have to find some made up reasons why someone would disagree with her . . after all, it couldn't be with her issues. . otherwise they'd have to think about what she has said and done. . . and they can't handle that. So, stop it. No one HATES Hillary. . . they just don't like all the lies, smears and swift boating. And those lies, smear and swift boats have been documented here and elsewhere. |

31. " I’m sick of seeing her reviled for the same things
people forgive easily when they’re done by men..."
"I see people swear up and down their hatred of Clinton isn’t because she’s a woman, or doesn’t stem directly from decades of vicious, lying conservative propaganda— they will swear it!–and then immediately turn around and eviscerate her for something Sanders did (or is) himself, or call her a “crook,” or say nonsense like, “She doesn’t have an honest bone in her body.” "There’s not a thing wrong with choosing Sanders over Clinton, or disliking Clinton’s current policy proposals. However, the out-and-out hatred we’re seeing from some Sanders supporters (and about which I am hardly the first person to write) bears some serious scrutiny. While the Sanders campaign has made real efforts to deal with the worst of it–the “Bernie Bros” acting as a misogynistic mob, attacking Clinton and her supporters Gamergate-style; the “Bern the Witch” controversy–there’s still far too much active hatred, and far too much of it is misogynistic or coded misogyny. Far too much of it stems from willing belief in conservative propaganda about Clinton that has been debunked over and over. I think we all expected it, but I did not expect it from our side." |

My dislike comes from my feelings on her as a person. Am i sexist? I think she is a liar. I don't think she can be honest. I think she is pathological. I think this "propaganda for decades" notion is bullshit. She and her husband were involved with some extraordinarily shady dealings in the 1990's. That's not propaganda. That's real life.
I wouldn't trust her if I was paid to. Must be my sexist leanings as a woman. |

52. Hey, hey, hey--
this has none of the hallmarks of conventional voodoo. Don't tarnish such an esoteric practice with this not-even-warm-anymore carcass of an OP.

43. Where's the "hate" part?
I see a lot of scrutiny of her past performance here. Hate?

48. I don't "hate" Clinton, I don't even know her so how could I? BUT
I sure as hell don't care for her color of politics.

54. If the Democrats want my vote for the Presidency, they will nominate someone who deserves it.
Not a corporate puppet.

55. This is the opinion of someone that owns a theater company - LOL!
Do you seriously look for blogs where someone sitting at home writes their feelings and post that as a credible source?
I personally don't give a crap about what some blogger thinks. And whomever I vote for is my right and my decision. |

57. Has it ever occurred you that most do not 'hate' her? We simply do not trust or agree with her...
Or believe that she should ever be President of anything other than Goldman/Sachs...

63. Scream 'Privilege!' at voters, that'll get turnout up in November
All those workers at WalMart without health care because they can't pay the $5500 deductible on their health 'insurance', an entire generation choking on student load debt, millions of Americans whose homes were stolen by banks via mortgage fraud with no consequence to the bankers: these are the privileged people in our society, according to the Democrats, apparently.
Yep, a strategy guaranteed to win in November! |

64. Lesser of two evils is a strategy, but not compelling to people who wont see much of a difference
What HRC and her supporters need to ask is has she addressed the interests of Bernie supporters as well as she has other groups within the Obama coalition. I can't answer yes. And if she changed her rhetoric would anyone have reason to believe her? |

80. Hillary will NEVER get my vote. The future if the planet for my grandkids is my priority.
Hills thinks Fracking is freaking awesome, no way in hell.
Hills speech at AIPAC, truly a mindboggling horror show of neocon hawkishness. Her unstinting support of outsourcing and H1B visas, no brainer. Destroy the middle class. Oh and her support of WallStreet instead of MainStreet, yeah wrong again. She is a nightmare and she will never get my vote. |
