Remember when Clinton declared victory in 2008 when she won Michigan & Florida by being the only candidate on the ballot

Remember when she didn't declare victory at any point in the speech she delivered 5 minutes ago?

This explains why you would work with a party. It has nothing to do with party loyalty. Bernie is definitely not a loyal democrat, and neither are most of his supporters.

4+ years of Hillary's economic policies will probably make the ensuing mass killings unlivable for a lot of people

If you're not willing to lick the boot, then really why are you in politics lol? Everything is a cycle of just getting stomped on so why do you want to lose to it over and over, just submit like me, I'm very intelligent.
Is there any substantial difference I ultimate delegate count anymore? It seems to be a tie.

I'm aware of that, but she's been pounding the ACA drum which, while an improvement, was a decidedly disappointing compromise from either a single payer or UHC system--especially considering that it strengthened the private insurance companies' stranglehold while coaxing small concessions out of them on preventive care etc.

It's just bizarre that she's now fired up about UHC when she has been adamantly decrying it as unpassable.

She's always been fired up about it. About using/improving the existing ACA foundation to reach the goal of UHC. She's been saying that single-payer is not the way to get to UHC. I was just confused about why you were surprised that she was for UHC all of the sudden when...that's always been her thing. Just not single-payer.

Just fuuuuuuuck everything if people think they're too progressive to vote for a democrat when the court is on the line.

Not officially, though. It seems like they played it that they leaked that to MSNBC and then positioned her speech to be nonspecific, so that at the end of the day if she wins, she could say "See? We totally told MSNBC that" and if she doesn't it was never technically official.

Yeah, because I don't really have a choice in the matter. If you want to actually change poo poo, elect a socialist mayor, or get some in your state senate. Presidential elections are the most broad strokes poo poo possible, so if one person is even slightly less terrible than the other, then guess what, that one is better.

I'm sure all the people whose healthcare would disappear if a Republican got elected understand your logic. And would throw you down a volcano given the chance.

here's how our intraparty democratic conversation played out in selzer's iowa poll last week

lots of the 12% 'not ok with' hillary here but this is just one bubble

compare that to the way the republican field feels about its candidates:


those numbers are much worse (carson doesn't count). the left is actually more unified than the right, as crazy as that might seem

they'll probably go to war with a guy, rubio, who they're more negative about than the left is about hillary. think about how the conversation turns around here when hillary comes up and think about what the conversation has to be like in republican bubbles around the country
