Even if you’re willing to call her progressive (I’m not), I don’t see how you can call her a leading one.

I feel that mentality “we are all going to have to vote for whichever one wins” is why it’s going to be so bitter. I, for one, plan on voting down-ticket no matter what, so I’ll be doing my part to keep congress (and the state’s offices) from becoming even more useless.

New headline: Gawker authors have wildly unrealistic views about the world outside NYC.

Ah! The old switcheroo! You say “Sanders’ supporters” are attacking her for having “a healthy ego”. I called bullshit, so you then you call me an ass pimple because some people, now unspecified, call her a list of other things and then pivot without reflection to attacking the other candidate. Gotcha. Seems that…

Thank you so much! I was just talkin’ with Dorothy, the cowardly lion, and the tin man. We were missing one of our friends, but you’ve found him! You’ve found the straw-man!

It’s true that Graham has worked with Democratic politicians in the past. He isn’t one of those who pushes the Window, but as you point out, his politics are crazy.

Oh, I know, right!? Right-wingers be all like she killed our troops in Bengaaaazi and Vince Foster and she’s a secret lesbian who used Bill Clinton to gain power and and and...wait.

I haven’t heard Bernie folks* say she doesn’t care about women, but I’m among those who don’t trust her. If you’d like, I could explain in detail with many examples, but I suspect we’ve both staked our claims in this election and aren’t going to move unless one or both candidates reveals themselves to be a…

I love that you switched topics from vaunting her “Near-parity between genders on campaign staff” to how “Parity is not just about average dollars.” when it was pointed out that others had her beat there.

My math has Hillary’s 324/202 split as a ratio of ~1.604 and Bernie’s 104 to 142 as ~1.365. If you’re looking purely at parity, Bernie comes out ahead. Is it nice that Hillary hired more women in a field where they’re underrepresented? Yes, but if you’re going to highlight “near-parity between genders”, and not simply…
