Can Hillary Clinton Really Get Away With Skipping Netroots?

The annual Netroots Nation conference has attracted thousands of liberal activists, the core of the Democratic Party's base, to the 100-degree-plus desert heat. It attracted its latest hero, Elizabeth Warren. It has attracted two Democratic presidential candidates.

Net Roots, for those who don't know is a gathering of major league leftists who actively pursue the destruction of America. Most of them vote Democrat.

Many are young skulls full of mush, but they booed Hitlery in 2007.

Netroots Nation used to be called Yearly Kos. It evolved out of the Daily Kos world. Hillary may not be liberal enough to suit the Netroots crowd.

She could get away with buying a baby’s liver from PP and eating it with Fava beans on national TV.

They will vote for whichever psycho is nominated as DemonRAT candidate. So she can ignore them with impunity.

So far the Chicago Mob doesn’t seem to be backing a Hillary challenger.

(at this point eight years ago, Baraq Obama had already been on the campaign trail for 6 months)

I suspect the NutRooters will push hard for Hillary if she’s the D nominee.
