And unless someone has proof of Hillary or any Democrat in the past 20 yrs doing so, they should shut the fuck up.

I dont put foul play beyond any human being, it is a human trait, but overall the Democrats, almost ALL of them, have been far more above board in the past 20-30 years.

It is disturbing to say the least to see these type of accusations on a social media site dedicated to the Democratic Party, very disturbing.

Being here with conspiracy theories gives them something to do.

some people this time around is troubling.

It is almost as if these are people who dont normally pay attention to politics or campaigns.

I would be quite happy to have our first woman president be Hillary, that is for sure.

I am unfortunately to the point where I cannot stand to look at the angry, scowling face of one unnamed faux Democrat. In my opinion (no links) I feel that said unnamed faux Democrat has every intention of destroying the Democratic party as it is and then rebuilding it in his own saint like image as a place to espouse his independent semi socialist whatever line of pie in the sky unrealistic crapola.
I feel better now!

upset in NH, the swarm of CTs, outrage, poutrage, and Hillary smears that will ensue here on DU will not be pretty to see.

I have stated more than once that if the Indies vote in the NH GOP primary instead of in the Dem primary and if Republican women decide to cross over and vote for Hillary (an entirely plausible event), an upset could indeed be possible.

While I don't really believe that will be case, I will be very happy if the actual outcome is a lot tighter than currently predicted. But I am very happy to see Hillary fighting every step of the way, especially when the battle is uphill. This makes me more than ever confident that she will fight just as hard for what we all believe in when she is Madam President.

I am very proud to stand with Hillary 100% - win or lose in NH!

She'll declare 2nd place a HUGE victory

Stealing data!
Faking Endorsements!
Impersonating union officials!
Making up stories about coin flips!

Oh, wait. That was Bernie.

Never mind.

I'm sure most people think you might be able to steal 3% in an election (personally, I don't).

I'm equally certain that if +20 turns into +5, most people will know it's because Sanders flamed out in NH. I don't expect that to happen (my floor bid is Sanders +10 and if it's closer than that, it means his candidacy has collapsed).

that maybe there is enough disconnect with NH rethuglican choices that many will cross to a saner Hillary choice. That would make me smile. The msm speculating that they might cross to give bs a boost is a con imho.

Every once in a while I bump into someone who has always identified as a Republican, and often from the military. There isn't a single choice for them from the clown car. HC was the SOS and she knows her stuff.
