I said as recently as a week ago that I would not vote for her...

if she won the nomination. I'm a Berner through and through. My first vote was for a Clinton. But my party just continues to move right and takes so much corporate/Wall Street money that I just can't support that anymore.

After the last few days and watching the other party...I would have to vote for Hillary IF her and Drumpf go on to win their respective nominations.

Don't go patting yourselves on the back, Hillary fans. I'd only do it because the opponent is a narcissistic sociopath fanning some terrifying flames. I just couldn't sleep at night if the absence of my vote contributed to a victory for that nutball....even if it was even a tiny fraction. He's shown the last few days how dangerous he truly is.

I will no longer take that stance. However, in this case, there is something seriously wrong with Drumpf.

7. Funny. Just this week, I went from "will not vote for her if all stays the same"

to "will never vote for a homophobe ever again in my life".

I guess sometimes even Bernie supporters part ways.

after the convention because if we don't get a monster turnout, we won't start getting the Congress that reflects us.

when everybody's favorite Clinton-hater barely lost Iowa and when on to take NH. Do you honestly think after the mauling Hillary is receiving from all sides save maybe Bill and Chelsea there's going to be anything left to cheer for?

11. Trump inspires more people to vote for Clinton than Clinton does.

She inspires no one who doesn't already like her.
She is the candidate that would be decimated to hell and back if the Repukes had a candidate that wasn't bat-shit crazy.
