Every comment section I look at nowadays is full of Democratic Party intramural squabbling. So. If I may:
Jesus Insane Amphibious Christ wearing a teddy, fucking fuck, we are so good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Typical D circular firing squad. No wonder I hate people!
First of all, if you like Sen. Sanders, vote Sen. Sanders. If you like Sec'y Clinton, vote Sec'y Clinton. And then vote for whoever wins the primary.
Calling Sen. Sanders a starry-eyed unicorn fucker and hypocrite, on guns, whatever, ignores that fact that Senate proposals are very craftily made to screw all of us, and any Senator interested in the people needs to be nuanced, and make some lousy votes because the perfect is the enemy of the good.

Driftglass' Law - Imma vote for Sanders in the primary, then for whoever he tells me to in the general.
paleo's Addendum: I suspect it's not going to be Donald J Fucking Trump, accidental pregnancy as a result of anal sex Ted Cruz, or Marky Mark, the World's Oldest Justin Bieber Cosplayer.
Hating Sec'y Clinton means you're responding to 25 years of smears by right-wing filth. She's a politician, not Vlad the Impaler.
Expecting either of them to work miracles ignores the fact that the President is not a dictator, and he/she will not have free rein. See:
Motherfucking gerrymandering.
Second, either of them is more likely to respond to our applied pressure than any filthy RWNJ, who will not give a molecular shit.
THE ELECTION IS NOT OVER IN NOVEMBER. AND THE ELECTION IS FOR MORE THAN THE PRESIDENCY.
We have to vote locally, and for legislatures and governorships, and then we have to keep fighting.
Every. Single. Goddamn. Day.
Every day, think of a good way to take a ten ton press (with votes) to the shit-filled melons of the Filth Party.
Every day, think of a good way to keep the pressure on the people we elect to work our issues. If they know they won't get any pushback, anyone of them, they do dumbass things.
And THINK. Use your damn heads.
