Hillary Clinton is not a Republican

She is not Republican-lite. She is not a DINO. She is not "less liberal" than Trump on issues.

She has been an active and contributing member of the Democratic Party for decades, including serving as both a Senator and as Secretary of State.

I am tired of reading she's a Republican, and wish the Admins would Kos this place.

Perhaps a year of being a Democrat, I will stick with a candidate who has been a Democrat in her adult life.

hypocritical. He's the perfect definition of a DINO. He's the ultimate "party crasher". Comes to your house without an invitation, parties like he's supposed to be there, trashes your house, then leaves. Back to Vermont with you BS, stay there and hopefully someone will primary this ass.

This shows where Clinton stood in the Ideology Score in relation to all other Senators for 2010.

Clinton is just to the right of Kennedy and to the left of Biden. Way to the left of Webb, Lieberman, and Bayh.

While the Clinton campaign is busy suing republican states over their voter suppression laws, the Sanders campaign is busy suing the Democratic party.

They sit and whine about voter suppression hurting Bernie. Apparently he doesn't care enough to join the lawsuits.

Women's rights are a distraction from real issues... fuck that. I will not put my rights on the line.

Only someone delusional would consider her a Republican. They have only been attacking her viciously for the past 25 years!
