You can’t put your finger on it because you have to be a rich white dude to do that. Trump made that very clear.

Your theory works anecdotally for me. In 2000 I couldn’t vote and believed the “Tweedledee and Tweedledum” stuff. In 2004 I wasn’t a big fan of Kerry (supported Kucinich in the primary) but didn’t have the faintest question about whether I’d vote for him after 4 years of Dubya. I was pissed off at the Democrats for…

Except no one can actually trust Trump on trade as he lies every 30 seconds and will change his position on a dime.

I feel as if Obama was the carrot and Hillary is the stick. And I hope she uses her stick to beat some sense into republicans.

I hear you. I was a huge ardent Obama supporter in 2008. Had Hillary won the primaries then, I would have been upset and heartbroken. But I still would have voted for Hillary because it’s about a hell of a lot more than my feelings. The good news is that the Bernie supporters who are wasting their vote are still…

As a former resident of Tampa, I can say with 100% certainty that Trump is not winning Florida because of 3rd party voters. He’s winning it because Florida is full of old assholes who spent their lives in blue states benefitting from the very same programs that they now repeatedly vote to deny for others (which is why…

Bush wasn’t running against the evil tycoon in every cheesy 80s movie, though.

Don’t say “Remember Al Gore?” Say, “Remember Bush????!!! Exactly. Everyday a new cringe. That could happen again but with worse Patriot Acts!” We were all limping to the polls in ‘08. That’s what you have to remind people!

Theory: is part of this the divide between millennials who first voted (nationally) in 2004, vs. those who first voted nationally in 2008? I’m a big fan of both Obama and Bernie, but I feel like it’s a much better comparison to judge Hillary/Kaine against Kerry/Edwards.

What really gets me about the Obama enthusiasts-turned-Clinton haters (many of them Bernie supporters) is that Clinton basically promises to be a continuation of Obama’s administration in terms of Supreme Court picks, healthcare, women’s rights, etc. For this reason, I really don’t understand why people who were so…

I don’t know. Weld particularly just seems like the kind of old school republican that was marginalized by the tea party. He’s a Rockefeller republican. I’ve been making fun of libertarianism since before most commenters were born and I generally agree with you but the GOP is currently so batshit that I can see why…

I need a place to vent about all Bernie supports in my life. It’s like, listen. I voted for him too and I was disappointed when he didn’t get the nomination, but you guys, seriously? Get your shit together. He’s not running for president anymore. He dropped out of the race, threw his support behind Hillary and urged…

“Vote Hillary” is the only political position Weld holds that I agree with.

Bad Hombres, obvs.

Thank god for women.

Agreed! Elizabeth is much more in line with my way of thinking. So was Bernie Sanders, but Hillary absolutely has my vote.

Being awake at 3am isn’t a badge of honor Donald! You know who else is up? People on speed. Sorry, MEDICATED SPEED.

How I wish this was the Pres & VP ticket.

Supernatural or not. Paranormal or not. Always trust your instincts.

Pretty much the scariest thing in my life. Maybe he was a nice guy and my brain over reacted, but I trust my subconscious. My subconscious keeps me safe and tells me when I am being too trusting.
