2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie will not repeat Obama's Performance [View all]sadoldgirl
(3,431 posts)4. No doubt that her chances are great
to win the nomination.
Is that the question you are posing?
Well, let's go a bit further then:
Even the greatest invalid among the repugs will vote
against her.
The unaffiliated will stay home and so will the youth.
And since there is now a serious split within the
party, don't count necessarily on the progressive
side to vote for her.
The SC fear may not work anymore, and in my
black neighborhood there is a lot of dislike for her.
And finally a lot of possible new dems will be
gone for 2018.

Good. It would great if we had a progressive in the WH rather than another centrist.
