My opinion on the difference between a Bernie win in November and a Hillary win.

[libtodeath]

Both may have another obstructionist Congress to deal with.

Bernie will win with a huge populist, progressive voter turnout.

Hillary will win because she has a (D) behind her name.

Which one will push the repukes more and stand a better chance of gains in the 2018 midterm?

1. My position is - What will they VETO

...

[Kelvin Mace]

3. Yep,

and I see more vetos from Bernie than from HRC.

[greymouse]

2. with Bernie we have a chance

if nothing else, a president like FDR who tells it like it is. The bully pulpit.

With Hillary it's War and Wall Street.

The people who are working their butts off for Bernie (really, for us) will do the same to help get progressives elected to Congress.

4. I don't think Hillary can win just b/c of the D

Too many people just won't vote for her in the general election.

5. Look at all our losses so far, the answers rest there, for the most part.

DWS still has her job despite those losses and the longer we blame
everything on Republicans and those disaffected voters, the more losses we'll likely see.

6. It is all about protecting the establishment.

[Jefferson23]

7. Yes, we're only inspiring when compared to Republicans...and that is obviously not enough. n/t

[JI7]

8. why aren't those "huge populist progressive" voters turning out now ?

[Jefferson23]

10. It is a beginning and a damn good one. Hillary and the DNC NEVER banked on it looking

this good, EVER. They thought they removed the only threat to her campaign..Warren.

WE will get there eventually...even if Bernie loses.

9. Repubs are constantly attacking Hillary and doing ads for Bernie

They are sure they can beat Bernie while Hillary has their panties in a wad.

I have always voted for whomever the repubs hate the most. Up till now I thought no one would top Obama but it looks like Hillary will do it.

[FangedNoumenom]

11. No evidence to support that Bernie will face an obstructionist congress

Just look at his history passing hundreds of progressive amendments while in a republican majority congress.

Hillary, on the other hand, will potentially face an even more obstructionist congress than Obama. She is anathema to the GOP.

[mgmaggiemg]

12. no one (voters) likes the repukes right now

so it doesn't have to do with the national candidate....has to do with the fact that voters on the right are fed up and swing voters (moderate republicans..vote hrc, libertarians vote bernie) at the local level will swing it to the dems no matter what ...not because of dem national candidate but because they are tired of the GOP politics....

[libtodeath]

13. They swept the 2014 midterms though.

[mgmaggiemg]

14. I will try

to be clearer...republicans don't like the GOP ...they are voting for Trump... that says it all
