Hillary Clinton just can’t win: Democrats need to accept ... Bernie Sanders can defeat the GOP
salon ^ | 2/19 | goodman

Posted on 02/19/2016 12:08:40 PM PST by RummyChick

In one major poll, Bernie Sanders is now leading Hillary Clinton nationally. In most others, he’s not far behind from the former Secretary of State. Vermont’s Senator already has an “edge over Clinton in matchups with GOP opponents,” dispelling Clinton’s electability myth. In an average of national polls, Bernie Sanders is less than eight points from Hillary Clinton, after being over 50 points behind in 2015. In addition, there’s only one person capable of challenging a Republican in 2016 without James Comey declaring national security was jeopardized by a private server.

Between the GOP’s propensity for throwing away elections, and the millions of young skulls o’ mush who will answer the siren call to have their school loans forgiven, I TOTALLY believe Bernie can win (God help us all).

Seems to be a fork in the road for America's future.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Hillary winning the nomination by using chicanery is our best case scenario. Our worst case scenario is Bernie winning. He’s not unbeatable - by any stretch - but MANY on our side (including many here on FR) underestimate the lure his “eat the rich” campaign possesses.

The choice between a Nazi or Hillary. Man, I’m glad I’m not a Democrat.

I agree that Sanders could win. Remember, in 2008, the various Congressional rating services, rated Sanders second “most liberal” (communist) on his voting record. The only Senator rated more communist?

The junior Senator from Illinois, Barack Hussein 0bama. If he could get elected President, so can Bernie.

He’ll need an “authentic” black running mate to spur the ‘hood vote, but there are plenty available.

No.

I am a registered Democrat. Have been my whole voting life Operation Chaos since 1988 baby! We want Clinton as the nominee. She has no pizzaz, no charisma, no spark, no message and a TON of crap hanging over her head every moment of every day.

He’s a socialist true believer. His authentic belief sells. Underestimating him is a BIG mistake. Overestimating the voting public’s willingness to dig deeper and understand how horrible a Sanders presidency would be is a BIG mistake.

Our best case scenario is Hillary winning the nomination by using dirty tricks, chicanery, big money politics etc...

That is why, in my primary, I’ll proudly vote for Hillary.

The country club GOPE says they are “working with the Democrats to get things done”. That’s why if we do elect a Dem I want it to be Bernie and see how much their treachery and duplicity works with someone who just wants to get their money. After what they have doe to this country they would deserve it.

Almost no D voters want her. I wish they had someone other than Bernie.

Times sure have changed. Remember when the Democrats were the party of Harry Truman and Henry "Scoop" Jackson?

Now the party is lead by Hillary (a criminal), Biden (a silly goof), Sanders (a communist), and Warren (a fake Indian).

The dims have morphed into the CPUSA and the repubs are standing around wondering what happened.

The CPUSA didn’t run a candidate in ‘08 or ‘12 because the dimrats policies were so close to theirs that they decided to save their money and not run a candidate. Obama and Hillary were preaching the communist ideals.

You’re better off voting for Clinton who is dead anyway rather than contributing to the commie’s momentum.

Its interesting how there are absolutely no polls being conducted in Nevada on the state of the Democrat caucus tomorrow.

Didn't know we were having a caucus here tomorrow.

As far as polls, there are plenty of them:

Wrong on all counts, as usual.

I remember when in CT, I called Ella Grasso (who was the governor) on something I believe it was a sales tax increase (before Connecticut put an income tax) and I also asked my state senator and state representative, both Dems but pro business. (Ella and the other two Dems would be moderate Republicans today.)

I cannot believe you want the crook over the commie. The reason I want the commie is because he admits to being a commie. I don’t agree with his principles, but at least he has some. Hillary is a crook, acting as a commie and openly lying about it. That is the most dangerous type of politician.
