Can we fool ourselves again? I'm sure the Republicans will run a horribly repulsive candidate for president. So we certainly cannot vote for a Republican as a viable alternative. What can we do? They have us by the balls. I do not want Hillary. How can Hillary supporters ignore the damage Bill Clinton did to this nation?

If Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee, they will have lost my vote. Period. No amount of fingerpointing, blame-shifting, or threats will change that. There are other options than being intimidated into compliance, I will take one of them.

I'm hoping for someone other than Hillary as well. But I'll begrudgingly vote for her in the general if it looks like there is any chance at all of her carrying my state.

I am DONE settling for the "less crappy of two crappy candidates." Want my support.

EARN IT.


Neither of the two major political parties in this nation has done squat toward that end in decades.

A GOP-lite candidate is not inevitable. The left-wing of the Democratic Party needs to re-assert itself in the primaries. Hopefully, that will happen sometime within the next decade or so.

However, I'm not going to hold my breath.

As far as I can tell, Wall Street, the MIC and the Banksters have a very firm grip on BOTH major parties.

When and if that changes, I'll return my full fledged and lifelong support to the Democratic Party. As for now, the Democratic Party has deserted me, not the other way around.

The Third Way lies. They lie about what they are. They lie about what their goals are. They lie about what they do.

We must purge this cancer from our party and find real Democratic candidates.

No more corporatists and warmongers.
