2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Hillary Clinton is brilliant, progressive, and the most qualified candidate on either side. [View all]
They hyperbolic attacks on Hillary Clinton are just that, wild-eyed and hyperbolic.
Bernie Sanders pledged AGAIN in his VICTORY speech in NH to support the Dem nominee whomever it was in the end, placing the need to keep the White House away from the Republicans above all else.
If Bernie wins, everyone needs to get behind him. If Hillary wins, same thing.
Hillary is ultra-qualified, and so many of the attacks have been hyperbolic beyond belief. What's next, that she's secretly Lucifer's wife? It's just getting silly. She is by all means the most qualified on either side, ready on minute one to take on ALL parts of the job. She is progressive and has good plans to move us toward all the goals Bernie has but with more specifics and in a more realistic way.
It would be utterly INSANE to be so far out on the fringe of reality as to not support the Dem nominee out of some radical notion of purity. Even Bernie is not pure. He has compromised on many pieces of legislation over his career and has attended events with lobbyist donors. Let's get real.
