Sorry, it is what it is.
I am sorry too. With the nomination of Trump, only time will tell what will become of the GOP. Tilting further right would be my guess.

The Democratic Party in my mind is tainted, a party of crooks that will need to be purged beginning with the super delegates. This too will take time especially with Hillary at the helm and Clinton's being master manipulators, or rig a second term for Hillary.

Whereas Trump would be a disaster I cannot see myself supporting Hillary either from a matter of principle.

Wake up, woman. Republican propagandists have been painting you as "She who walks behind the Rows" for decades. You are Orwells "Goldstein". You're not just "mistrusted", half of the country thinks you're Satan.

WTF?
Dave the GOP spin machine has not let up on here since her healthcare plan was made public. Just today Fred Hyatt of the WaPo repeated the lie about Obama pulling the troops out ofr Iraq when it was Bush who started that ball rolling. So it is with every bad thing they say about Hillary. Tell a lie often enough and it eventually is taken fior truth.

I can't wait for the debates.

Hillary is going to eviscerate Trump who will -- inevitably -- cry "foul."

Screw'em. I want the public horror of watching him burn.

He's playing all sorts of games already to rationalize backing out of the debates or only debating once.

Trump is way to the left of the GOP establishment on many issues. That's a lot of the reason why I want him to win. His election could pull the GOP that way too. On the other hand they may rebel against him and go farther right. It's hard to predict.

Get serious Potter, we need Hillary to save us all from Trump, or else it will be the end of American democracy.

Games?

The only games that are being played are by the Clintonistas who are trying to do to him what they did to Bernie.

They've managed to use their influence to schedule two of the debates opposite NFL games.

What do you think that's all about?

Coincidence?

Probably not, but the possibility exists. A possibility like that is sort of like a possibility of your house getting blown to bits by a gas explosion. You really want to avoid possibilities like that.
