Now you're just acting like a child.




I've explained numerous times why I thought Bernie was going to have a lot of problems if he'd gotten in.

The Tea Party is to the Alt-Right what the Stooges are to Black Flag.

Clinton has been part of the political machine in one way or another for 28 years (don't bother with your typically jaded "and that's the problem" cliched comeback).

8 years as first lady to a Governor.
8 years as first lady to a President and the first to have an office in the west wing. She was totally hands on the whole time.
What do you think Bill and Hillary's pillow talk was all about those 16 years?

Then 8 years as a US senator working alongside many of the members who are still serving - on both sides of the aisle.

Then 4 years as Secretary of State - traveling the world on behalf of Obama trying to right GWBs wrongs and rubbing elbows with the globe's top people of power.

28 years experience of knowing how things work. How things get gridlocked, and what compromises need to be made, and whose backs need to be scratched in order to get the big picture policy changes through.

At his very core Bernie is a good guy. His ideolgies align with mine in almost every way. But in order to get some spotlight time he had to go out on a limb and toss out some ideas that fired up his base, but wouldn't have stood a chance of getting through the House and Senate.

Fox Henhouse. It's really that simple.

So assuming that Clinton would have run into the same gridlock that Sanders would have, and Trump currently is, is completely naive.

Clinton Hate 101 Mr. Frown.

Translation: I no longer care but as an old man who fears change I'd like the wheels to stay greased, forever if possible.

Fixed.

Why is this so hard to understand? And yes, I'm older. All the more important that I vote for someone who isn't going to make it a point to **** with my SS benefits that I've built up over the past 41 years of working full time. I also vote with my kids in mind.

Who did you vote for Bat, and why?
