(16,110 posts)for suggesting that .02 wasn't really a ringing victory, but now see that a 12 point win isn't a win, it is a loss.
It is extremely frustrating. Especially since I have the very same problems with Clinton I did in 2008...she's a corporatist who is all about 'corporate persons' and the 1%, unless she's running for something at which point, she gives lip service to recognizing that the rest of us exist. I doubt, should she be elected, that she will do anything for human persons who make less than the 1% price of admission.
And yet, given the choice between her and Trump, Cruz, or whichever colossal douchenozzle the other side puts up, I'll end up casting my vote for her since I live in a swing state.
But, I tire of holding my nose and voting for the lesser evil and it is not a great lesson in integrity for my kids.
I do know one thing. No money donations to her campaign. She doesn't need the small amount of money I can afford to donate since she's got plenty of corporate donors who will spend whatever they need to via super pacs.
Also, I won't be volunteering for her campaign because her supporters tend to be so unpleasant to deal with.
