Hillary Supporters: Is Your Candidate Infallible?

[Chasstev365]

Seriously; reading hundreds of posts on DU, I have yet to see a SINGLE instance of a Hillary supporter admitting she has ever done anything wrong, not only during this campaign, but in her entire career. Isn't that a bit childish?

1. They don't care. They are gleefully supporting a candidate that voted for the Iraq War FFS.

2. It's a reaction, perhaps, to the vitrolic posts criticizing her on everything from her smile to...

...her trustworthiness. She's a Democrat in good standing and we should be glad we have two excellent candidates to choose from.

That being said, I've stated from the very start that I don't particularly like her and would prefer Sanders as President. But since that's not likely to happen, I think the time to help push Clinton further to the left is here and we should focus on celebrating both candidates.

3. When you believe your candidate is The Anointed One, then of course the candidate can do no wrong.

4. Turnabout is fair play for Bernie supporters: Is Your Candidate Infallible?

In reading hundreds of posts on DU, I have yet to see a SINGLE instance where a Sanders supporter admitting he has ever done anything wrong, not only during this campaign, but in his entire career. Isn't that a bit childish?

At least Clinton has stepped up to the plate and admitted that her vote on the IWR resolution was wrong. Is there a comparable instance that Sanders has admitted that he was wrong?

5. Here are three I can admit about Bernie. YOUR TURN!

1. Politically stupid to classify himself as a Socalist.
2. Bernie should not have waved off his wife; it was rude.
3. Bernie has been too critical of President Obama given the political realities of obstructionism.

YOUR TURN!

6. Crickets, just as I expected!

17. Pardon me, but I went to bed since I'm a night owl.

1) Hillary Clinton admitted that using only one device for both personal and government business was a mistake.
2) She admitted her vote on IWR was a mistake.
3) She admitted that maintaining a private server for emails was a mistake.

I imagine that she admits making other mistakes, but I'm not going to search through right wing media to jog my memory and since an examination of your journal reveals much about you.

19. Sorry, but that's just odd.

You only cited things that Hillary herself has admitted as mistakes. Like it has to be campaign-approved or something.

Can't you cite anything you consider a mistake on her part that she does not officially admit is a mistake, as the other poster did?

[TexasTowelie]

21. Sure, that is easy for me to do.

Forgiving Bill of his infidelities was a mistake in my opinion. Has she ever come out to officially admit that decision was a mistake since it appears that you want to play a gotcha game? I could name a few more off the top of my head, but why should I provide opportunities for the right wingers on this site?

I've answered the questions presented to me so I don't there is any further need to engage in this discussion so please feel free to play Twenty Questions with someone else. Have a good night.

20. Thanks!

Foe rhe record, I will vote for her over ANY Republican or independent in November!

[TexasTowelie]

22. Thank you for making that clear.

If Bernie wins the nomination then I will also vote for him over any Republican, independent or the nominees of any other party in November also.

8. Yeah those are pretty stupid.

[Chasstev365]

9. Coming from one of the biggest Hillary Cheerleaders on DU

Ouch, is what I might have said in the 6th Grade!

[JaneyVee]

10. You posted it, Im merely agreeing with you.

[Chasstev365]

11. Can you name three Hillary mistakes; stupid or otherwise?

[Chasstev365]

13. Still Waiting.......

[JaneyVee]

14. Probably, everyone makes mistakes.

[Chasstev365]

15. But you can't or won't admit Hillary has done anything wrong!

You just illustrated the entire point of my post!

[Chasstev365]

7. I'm talking about supporters, not the candidates themselves!

[firebrand80]

12. No candidate is perfect

I supported Obama over Hillary and Edwards in '08 because he was the better candidate, in my opinion. This year, I feel the same way about Hillary. That's really all there is to it.

If the majority of my fellow Dems disagree with me, I'll get behind their choice. Same as any other year.

16. Kickin'

[postatomic]

18. No. Politics is messy and I don't put Hillary on a pedestal

There is no one better qualified than Hillary to be President. But I don't agree with everything she says or does. If I did then there would be something wrong with her, or me, or both of us.

The big difference is that I would never keep the American people from having a remarkable President in the White House because of my list of 'pet issues'.

Happy now?
