I don't want to; I just don't like her.
Luckily, I live in CT, where it's likely the DEM nominee will win my state, with or without my vote.
If polls suggest the race will be close in my state, of course I will vote for the DEM nominee. I don't want to risk putting my state in the R column.
But if the polls are not close then, yes, I won't be voting for Mrs. Clinton.

it kind of doesn't matter who one votes for for president.
You know DEM nominee is going to win CALI, NY, MASS, CT
and
You know the Repub nominee is going to win Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi

I do plan on voting for DEMs in every other race because those races are less predictable.

I get nervous about people saying they won't vote for the Democratic nominee.

He would do well to stop fanning the anti-Muslim flames, though.

I guess "under the bus" now means "no one will do what the endorser says".

Mahr is not a Democrat and admits it so his lecture rings rather hollow.

when anyone says they won't support a nominee that they will "stay home" and not vote at all?

This gets repeated ad nauseum every damned primary season.
