Doesn’t Clinton Embarrass Democrats?

I'm still waiting, patiently, for a truthful statement from you about pretty much anything. What are the odds?

I think you guys are not helping your cause with this juvenile posting. . I am not a democrat and I emphatically did not want another Clinton in the White House, but the ridiculousness of the right wing of American Politics has made me a Hillary sympathizer. I wasn't going to vote (in my State, my vote, regardless of who I vote for, will make no difference). Now I insist on voting for Clinton. It will be my personal protest against the juvenile behavior of the far right.

I like your philosophy on this. I too live in a state where it doesn't matter how I vote, Indiana will go solidly for Trump. I think I'll put in that personal protest vote myself. It will be a protest against the willful ignorance of the left regarding the obvious incompetence and corruption of the Clinton camp. I will protest the blatant hypocrisy of the left, the double standards and the leftist support of all the lies told to us by this administration. Most of all it will be in protest of you cowards who pretended to want change, but when it comes right down to it you line up like a bunch of mindless sheep, support the status quo and give an endorsement to years of corruption and scandal the likes of which we have never seen. I must insist on voting for Trump.

There's a difference between wanting change for the better and wanting change for its own sake with no regard to the consequences of the outcome.

I don't agree, but I like it nevertheless! Certainly your position is sound if the corruption and incompetence in the Clinton camp is as you think it is, except for one flaw in your thinking: insisting on voting for Trump! Myself, I am more of the opinion expressed in the NY Times Opinion Piece I gave a link to in the thread 'How Hillary Met Satan.'

I live in CA my vote won't matter in the final tally either... most likely.

So as a libetarian, like Piezoe, (he is from the Stalinist newspeak side of the party and I am from the Patrick Henry side) I too will make a protest vote.

I have experience with protest votes as i voted for Perot instead Bush which got us a Clinton.
So I will have to protest my own previous protest vote and vote for Trump.

I will write in a candidate. I am not sure yet, maybe Rand Paul.

For what possible purpose?? When you do that, it increases the odds that a Criminal Hillary will make it to the White House. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE WOULD THROW THEIR VOTE AWAY---

No need to add most likely jem.Unlike Texas CA isn't close to being a toss up State

Less than zero. AAA stands for "Aaaaaahhhhhhh, I'm a crazed, ignorant, deluded, homophobic right winger!"

We are sure that you do not understand. No need to argue that one.

What we do know is the outcome of a Clinton presidency. More corruption. More scandal. A government in total gridlock. Granted Trump is an unknown and I imagine there will be pain. More often than not real change requires some pain. IMO we simply cannot stay on the same path we're on and expect things to turn out well. Something gotta' give.
