In reply to the discussion: Making an issue of Bernie Supporters is the Dumbest Fucking Campaign Tactic in History [View all]vi5
(13,305 posts)..that both Hillary and her staff and supporters go nuclear well before any situation calls for it. Which would be great if she was the same way with Republicans, but she's not. I'm tired of hearing how she fights back against Republicans because I've yet to see her do anything other than internalize Republican criticism, while lashing out and blowing shit up when it comes to liberal/Democratic criticism.
The thing is that I'm not even what I would call a Bernie supporter. I'll likely vote for him in the primary, but but I don't even really think he'd be our best candidate in the GE either. But I see why he had to run and why we desperately needed an alternative. I'm just sick to my stomach at what my party has turned into and how they are handling and have handled this HIllary situation. We mocked for years the cult of personality and dynasty that the Republicans have and now we're showing ourselves to be even worse than they are since even they had the good sense to send Jeb! packing.
