Not so much here at DU, but I don't think DU is a refection of the US or even the Democratic Party.

She is running against Republicans in a general election where they have significant disadvantages with minorities and women.

I think she has an excellent chance of winning.

There are somethings I do not want to lose not that it affects me but the right for a woman to have a choice. I had the option and if necessary I would have used it.

I want to know our commander-in-chief would make decisions to defend this country and our citizens. Wouldn't it be nice to see this country pulling together, neighbors trying to help each other and seeing a congress which actually worked.

I am looking forward to a good primary, think Hillary will be decided early and perhaps a running mate will emerge as well.

Even the most die-hard leftist will have to vote for the Democrat.
He is so creepy. I posted that in another thread. Of course his politics are awful, but there is something about his person that is so creepy.

And I do want to see a spirited primary, which I have no doubt Hillary will do very well.

I want her to be our nominee & will do everything in my power to put her in the White House.

I will support Hillary for president. I supported her in 2008, in the primary against Obama, simply because I didn't think that the country would vote for someone named Barack Obama. I have supported Obama and I will support Hillary if elected.
