2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThe Democratic debates in 2016
lets say it's Hillary, Bernie and Jim Webb for example. I see 3 adults talking intelligently about the issues, probably agreeing more than they disagree, and not going for clever sound bites. Compare that to the Republicans debate, with 3/4 of them saying God told them to run, denying evolution, Benghazi, IRS yada yada yada.
A question for those who say they would never vote for HRC. Suppose Bernie runs in the primaries but say he WILL support HRC if she's the nominee?

(25,021 posts)I could give a shit about the person as a personality nor do I have any personal loyalty to them. I support Sanders as the representative of policies, positions, and aspirations.
Clinton will be Clinton contested or endorsed. Her policies, positions, and aspirations remain the same and I won't be supporting them period.
