The inevitable one is not so inevitable...

[DianeK]

Hillary Clinton is scared to death of Bernie Sanders and so are all those who believe that she should be crowned as President of the United States...sorry guys..it just does not work that way..sorry Hillary ..you can not ignore the Primary process and pretend that you are already in the General Election....you are making the same pathetic mistakes you made before

[JaneyVee]

1. This is just getting sad now.

[randys1]

2. I wish people would discuss the vast vast differences between the two parties.

[cannabis_flower]

33. That's for the general election..

the Democratic primary is for discussing differences between the Democratic candidates.

[Cali_Democrat]

3. Hillary is ignoring the primary process?

That's a new one I haven't heard before.

[Agschmid]

36. It sure doesn't feel that way as I canvass...

[oasis]

4. Hill is "scared to death" of no one. Putin, ISIS, or even Bernie.

Btw, don't pin your hopes on what happened in 2007. This time she has a completely different campaign apparatus to avoid a repeat.

Expect a far different result.

[Romulox]

5. In other words she's afraid of nothing...but her past failures. nt

[oasis]

6. Success and failures happen to us all. Hill is not one to curl up

into a fetal position like some of her detractors might do. The sum of all her endeavors has molded her into the perfect candidate to undertake the role of POTUS.

[Vincardog]

11. The sum of all her endeavors has molded her into the perfect candidate to fail AGAIN. Same mistakes

Same results.

[oasis]

19. A thing to know about Hillary supporters. Most of us recognize

the greatness in the individuals who learn, achieve, grow and strive for even greater accomplishments. Hillary is such a person. She is a winner. We have no problem in voicing our appreciation for her years of service to children, women, the nation and humankind worldwide.

Folks of our makeup recognize winners because we too, in our lives, have known what it is to rise above adversity and keep on going. We who optimistically support Hillary, are proud to say "we are also winners."

Then, there are those who go through life relishing a chance to pass on to others their own negative impressions of their neighbors, family members, sports team or elected officials. They live to criticize. I'm not saying you fall into that particular category, but there are a few here at this site who certainly do.

For the record, I have never written anything negative about Bernie, here at DU or anywhere else. I have been a longtime admirer of his commitment to fairness for all.

[840high]

24. She just makes more mistakes.

[oasis]

30. I know post#19 doesn't apply to you. (eom)

[BootinUp]

7. You jumped straight to a conclusion without basing it on anything. nt

[Scootaloo]

27. Is that criticism or praise, coming from a Clinton supporter?

[BootinUp]

28. Watch below

[Sheepshank]

8. So, first of all, Hillary is not "scared to death" ......

...of much in this world. Bernie is not on the "scared to death" list. iSIS may not even be on the list.

She is respectful of the Primary process as is her supporters. Not taking anything for granted. Working hard, campaigning, rally's, speeches, Twitter, web, fb.

Apparently you are scared to death of this successful and hardworking campaign.

[DianeK]

9. ha!

[Sheepshank]

10. You had and epiphany?...good

Your op was silly in the extreme

Just about as silly and misguided as this thread. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251842718

[riversedge]

13. whow, that one did not last long

[uppityperson]

14. And another

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027376303

[stevenleser]

15. The hidden OP at least had some entertainment value. This one doesnt even have that.

[WillyT]

17. You Might Want To Re-Think Your Support Of Those That Keep Lists Of Posts...

[840high]

25. Why don't you provide the entertainment?

[Starry Messenger]

21. People are losing it.

[riversedge]

12. Would you like some homemade apple cider with a

cinnamon stick? The apples are from my tree. SWEET

[WillyT]

16. Oh DianeK... You Are So Correct... So Correct...

Hillary Clinton Looks Past Primaries, and to Republicans, in Strategy to Beat Sanders

It's that over-bearing confidence that sank her campaign the last time around.

[brooklynite]

22. That and an opponent with financial resources, political endorsements and a compelling message....

[WillyT]

23. Compelling To Who/Whom ??? (I Never get the who/whom thing right.)

Those of owned houses, settled finances, and secured retirements ???

That group is shrinking every day. And everybody knows it, and everybody fears they could be next.

[brooklynite]

38. Apparently, the group for whom Sanders' message is compelling wasn't large enough to begin with...

[WillyT]

40. Wow... You're Our Resident 1%er... And You Don't See It Yet, Do You ??

You WILL see it... one way or another.

[brooklynite]

42. What I see is that a majority of Democrats support Hillary Clinton...

...so either the number of 1%ers in the Democratic Party is incredibly high, or there's a flaw in your argument.

[WillyT]

45. Ya Know... You May Be Correct... And We Might Not Have A Demosrctic Party Anymore...

Most are STILL not paying attention...

The polls also reflect that.

[brooklynite]

46. But I was told (here) that 75 MILLION disaffected voters were ready to rise up...

Too bad Sanders blew that off by acknowledging that he'd lose if the Primary was held now...

[aspirant]

18. Did Hills look past her fear when dodging bullets on the runway?

[JoePhilly]

20. What are you babbling about?

[DCBob]

26. It's smart for Hillary to pivot to the general with the Republicans trashing her non-stop 7x24.

Bernie should do the same if they begin to attack him.

[cheapdate]

29. That old canard is getting tired. Time to put it to bed.

I don't think it would be possible for Hillary Clinton to campaign any harder than she is doing. Same goes for Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley.

[leftofcool]

31. Oh please. We have heard this song before.

Did the fact that she is leading by double digits escape your notice?

[Thinkingabout]

32. You think Hillary is scared of Sanders? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

She showed one of her strengths in the last debate, foreign affairs. Sanders stumbled and danced away to his usual stump speech on finances. He does not have foreign affairs knowledge. It really showed. As I said before formal announcements candidates has to sell themselves, if Bernie is unable to sell himself then he will probably lose.

[Major Hogwash]

34. She has already picked out the curtains she wants for the Oval Office.

For the windows looking out on the Rose Garden.

<---- The Official Hillary "She said what?" Clinton emoticon.

[quickesst]

35. More....

.....WAH-WAH!! Bernie's going to have to build a boat to navigate the river of tears from rally to rally.

[OilemFirchen]

37. Next time,

take petard-building lessons.

This is no job for amateurs.

[gordyfl]

39. Hillary's Coronation

[NanceGreggs]

41. Oh, don't we all know it, sweetie.

It's hard NOT to be scared to death of the guy who is so far behind you in the polls, he's just a vague, blurry image in your rearview mirror.

It's apparent by Hill's tireless campaigning that she is "ignoring the primary process" - I mean really, who doesn't see right through her travel schedule, her on-the-ground teams across the country, etc.? She is so blatantly ignoring the process - I'm just amazed that not everyone has your incredible powers of observation in noticing just how disengaged she has been all along.

BTW, do you have a list of people who believe HRC should be "crowned as president of the United States"? I've not seen any such sentiments expressed by anyone - but I'm sure you know better than most what's really going on.




There's sad, there's hopeless - and then there's just plain desperate. I think we all know where you are on that scale.

[WillyT]

43. And Your Opinion On This ???

44. Well said

As usual Nance.
