57.79 Klout score as of today. This is the only place I get political. I am tired of the ugly intramural wars. I will quietly go about my business and support/vote for Hillary.

A question for the HRC group [View all] Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 OP

I think jehop61 May 2016 #1

I'm just looking to see where, if anywhere, there could be common ground. Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #10

Almost all of the ground is already common. The differences are overblown by DU Sanders supporters. TwilightZone May 2016 #12

And that point about voting together nearly all the time needs to be emphasized Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #18

Most people already know. It's the ones who are being intentionally obtuse that don't. TwilightZone May 2016 #21

A lot of it is tone Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #23

Their outrage is highly selective, which makes it difficult to take them seriously TwilightZone May 2016 #29

This, so much this. LisaM May 2016 #61

Thank you, Twilight. Well put. Cha May 2016 #6

Objectively, his supporters are enthusiastic Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #20

Hillary has received more votes than Sanders or Trump. The enthusiasm gap is a myth TwilightZone May 2016 #22

I read RCP Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #26

"I'm just saying his supporters are pretty fired up. " TwilightZone May 2016 #32

Fair point Algernon Moncrieff May 2016 #44

It sure meant nothing in New York where Hillary won all 3 districts where BS Cha May 2016 #138

Many of these young people didn't even make the effort to register and vote for Bernie. Koinos May 2016 #66

True dat... give us some love! nt procon May 2016 #67

Not free college. But something free would be good. Koinos May 2016 #68

Free community college, affordable four year colleges - yes! LisaM May 2016 #77

Yeah, but I don't need dat school any more. And what counts is me, me, me. Koinos May 2016 #82

It mystifies me why corporate planners aren't hooking up with procon May 2016 #83

I know. I don't get it either. LisaM May 2016 #89

Idealism often confuses vocation and avocation. procon May 2016 #91

Yard signs and bumper stickers aren't votes, though... BobbyDrake May 2016 #53

They're burnie washed. Cha May 2016 #14

Doesn't Sanders want to get rid of ACA and isn't really into gun reform? caquillo May 2016 #15

On the ACA, he'll just wave his magic finger, er, wand, and single-payer will appear. TwilightZone May 2016 #19

Too many misunderstandings in this list. I will start with items that are out of place. Koinos May 2016 #24
