What are you doing democrats? What are you doing?
Democrats,

What are you doing? We have a national figure on our side who has ENORMOUS popular appeal, incites passion, and has crossover appeal the likes of which this party hasn't had in decades!! But, yet, you turn to the most polarizing candidate amd most divisive candidate that we could possibly run? You had a chance tonight to create a new majority that would have made the democratic party a super-majority party for generations? Instead, the best we can do now is nominate a woman who will win 51-49 at best, will have half the country against her, and will just continue the bitter partisan divide.

We could do better. America could do better. What a tragic night.

6. Rasmussen says she can win
Actually, it's been said that she can win a plurality but only 49%, thinking on it now. Obama could have done so much more.

7. Healing and building bridges is NOT the way to go with the Republicans.
We have been trying to overcome partisian differences with them for a long time, they haven't responded with anything but derision.

8. Perhaps the voters wanted
not" ENORMOUS popular appeal, incites passion, and has crossover appeal the likes of which this party hasn't had in decades!! "

But SOMEONE WHO THEY THOUGHT would make a good President.
