they were for Hillary because Bernie was too old! They are 79 and 94!!

But they're not wanting to be President. That's a tough job. Look what it's done to Obama, and he's a bit younger than me.

Oh, and apparently Fox is telling Trump supporters to bring guns to his rallies.

That'll end well... ugh

I agree that as older people they recognize it is a job that requires a certain amount of energy.

Although gotta say, I am having a very hard time getting past the Nancy Reagan line.

That really really stung. I've accepted the apology and am letting it go, but it was really painful.

I want her and Bill smirking at each other from opposite sides of the Bible during the Oath of Office. And the Chief Justice dying of outrage.

I have to admit, I would record that moment and play it back a lot.

As a purely cool thing, it would be wild to have Hillary as president and Bill, a former president himself, as her first man. First gentleman? What's the equivalent of lady?

First gentleman? What's the equivalent of lady?

They've never had to address it before. I CAN'T WAIT.

I figure every politician (every public figure, really) has their share of crazies that get drawn to them. I try to base my votes on the person themselves, not who does or doesn't support them.

That being said, the most hardcore Bernie supporter I know is my youngest cousin. She's half my age, a passionate feminist and wants Sanders to win so badly she's currently living and dying by the caucus results. Her conviction is what's inspiring me to actually vote in a primary for the first time ever this year.

I do worry that if Sanders wins the Presidency, he'll have to deal with even worse obstruction than Obama's faced the last 8 years and I also don't agree with everything he wants to do. On the other hand, he's probably the most earnest person to run for the office since I've been able to vote and has been in the trenches, fighting the good fight, for decades. I can't in good conscience ignore that.

I think Hillary is a skilled politician, and she'd probably get a lot stuff done as president. I also think she did a very admirable job as Secretary of State. But I also think she's too deeply involved with those who have fucked things up in this country, and a little too willing to change her views based on how the wind is blowing. Which worries me about how many of the things she gets done will actually be things we want done.

However, if it's Hillary on the ballot this November instead of Sanders, I'll readily vote for her before any of the clown show the GOP is putting up this year.

I'll also be enthusiastically placing my vote to get Russ Feingold back in the Senate and send that asshat Ron Johnson packing.

This.

I also think she's too deeply involved with those who have fucked things up in this country, and a little too willing to change her views based on how the wind is blowing.

No matter what else anyone says about her, she's learned how to play the game really well. Also what you said about her getting stuff done.

I will say, in addition to the Regan thing, I was a little perturbed at her "Where was Sanders when I was fighting for healthcare in the 90s?" when the truth was he was right there along with her.

Would it be any different for Hillary? I honestly think that unless there's a tectonic shift in the Republican culture aggressive obstruction and wild misrepresentation of Democratic policies is going to be the norm.
