Hillary won't run attack ads against her opponent Jill Stein. Hillary must use all her resources

against defeating the don.

But there's nothing stopping us from outing Stein here, in a place where progressives go to discuss issues.

Jill Stein is a phony, a narcissist whose aim is to promote herself, no matter what the cost.

Be a friend. Don't let your friends get suckered in by her.

Agreed. Clinton doesn't need to "punch down" at Stein. That just raises Stein's profile. nt BobbyDrake Aug 2016 #5

Clinton doesn't need to. But we can. And Stein's profile is high around here. n/t pnwmom Aug 2016 #7

If Florida 2000 hadn't been decided by 537 votes I might feel differently. pnwmom Aug 2016 #11

When Florida polling is that close between Trump and Clinton, I'll worry brooklynite Aug 2016 #12

They haven't been polling in my state, but there are a lot of disgruntled Bernie supporters here. pnwmom Aug 2016 #13

She is currently on the ballot in only 25 states. DURHAM D Aug 2016 #14

Jill Stein is a low-grade Trump surrogate. I don't know how she can live with herself.

She's polling in 4th place, with barely half the support that Gary Johnson gets. You're going to have to convince me that she'll impact a State outcome anywhere.

We also had a statewide election in WA state that was decided by only a few hundred votes. It happens.

And I'm angry with her that she's concentrating ad runs in swing states -- just like Nader did.
