As opposed to the bullshit you have been posting lately?

What happened to the old Boreas...not nearly as rude.

And gay marriage, abortion, the death penalty, immigration.... a lot of stuff to lure the politically unsophisticated. Here. Educate yourself. Know your enemy.

So?

It begs the question;

Who thinks Hillary is really all that far left, anyways?

Bernie was WAY to the left of Hillary and I think we all realize that.

Kaine is rated 100% by the Human Rights Campaign on LGBT issues, is against the death penalty and is for immigration reform. NARAL and Planned Parenthood rate Kaine 100%. The NRA hates his guts.

Educate myself? You're a hoot, John. Pull that log out of thine own eye.

This is all I need to know about the Libertarian Party.

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs." John Rogers

I think John wants a Whole Foods clerk or Starbucks barista type on the ticket.

No, given the choice, I want her to win, obviously, but I'm afraid that she might lose. Right now, though she's leading in most national polls, her lead in virtually every one of them is well within the margin of error. Plus, the same is true (but a little worse) in battleground states.

How can this be possible, given whom she's running against. She should be beating Trump by double digits in every national poll, especially after the hate fest in Cleveland. Doesn't this worry you at all?

No, but it looks like they'll be voting and Libertarianism can look pretty appealing to the new voters who haven't progressed much beyond the level of the 14 year olds Bob likes to bring up.
