2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumSo how long before Hillary's Team goes nuclear on Sanders?
Will they wait until after New Hampshire or let it go now?
And who is going to lead the charge? Claire McCaskill didn't work so who is up now?
And will Harry Reid endorse in Nevada? That's the one endorsement that will really matter. He doesn't seem to be a big Hillary fan with pushing Obama to run in 2007 and refusing to endorse so far in 2016 (he said he was waiting to see what Biden did 1st).

...there isn't really much to throw either. That's why it'll most likely come back to bite her.

(18,421 posts)Find me one single Democrat that said that she shouldn't win because she's a woman.
FIND.
ME.
ONE.
I can however find you a candidate that said that Obama can't win because he's a "scary black man"... That much I remember quite clearly.
There is soooo much that could be said straight out on Hillary. He has been very gracious to her. And actually the supporters could get much much more real on her too.

(1,197 posts)What is more dishonest than running on an Independent ticket for YEARS, then suddenly, an idea! Run for President!! But, but the only chance he has would be to run on one of the two main tickets. How could he do that and look like an honest man after all of these years? How could he do it and live with himself since he couldn't bring himself to join one of those parties at any time during all of these years? Well...he could do it for money. Yes, that's right, the only chance he had, besides being a man, would be to join one of the parties, and today only a rabid bat would join the Republican party, although he might have had a good chance there this year, as well. The Republicans have obstructed until even the Democrats in Congress look bad this election year.
So after twenty years of NOT being a Democrat, he decides to become a Democrat. That's Honest? He will run on the Democratic ticket, but he will not actually be a full fledged Democrat. He will be a Socialist Democrat. He will talk a lot about free stuff, and talk very little about paying for it. It's a good meme. Lots of people will fall for it, especially the younger crowd. Something for nothing? Oh yeah.
AND he'll encourage the ill bred to tear down the true Democrat, who has worked for equality for everyone, especially women, and has worked to make the lives of children better her whole life. His minions will do his dirty work for him and he'll pretend he doesn't hear them. Define honest.

(1,214 posts)If that happened I certainly would have been tempted to vote for Bernie instead of Hillary.
The political decision to vote for bush's war in Iraq, cost her my vote, unless it's to block a republican.

I've never seen a woman of such accomplishments being so ravaged
about anything and everything without little proof beyond name calling,
sprinkled with innuendos, red meat words, and rumors!
including in this thread,
and including the OP title....
Email anyone?

(1,464 posts)I am just interested in when people think she is going to unload on Sanders. Nothing the Clintons like more than dirty campaigning.
A small part of me would love to see Bernie return the attack with some attacks of his own, but he doesn't seem to be interested in that.

(68,867 posts)so that his hands appear to stay clean!
I see it every day.....
Some write nasty letters, call Hillary nasty names, rumormonger, talk of conspiracy,
throw anyone who express support for her under the bus, etc....
In fact, I think those Bernie supporters are doing their guy a great big disservice!
Then they project that she's the nasty one....
and I'm basing this not on just what I'm seeing on DU!
