humor/anger. We're talking about the same Hillary Clinton who said in 2008 that she was staying in the race because Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June. Meaning: anything can happen. My anger is because the first year I was able to vote was 1968, and I lived in Los Angeles. Two or three weeks before that primary, my mother and I went to hear Bobby speak. I was so in love with JFK, and equally in love with RFK. Their assassinations still hurt. And for that self-centered SOB to cavalierly talk about Bobby's assassination really pisses me off. So I cavalierly mentioned that she may be run over by a bus/thrown under a bus. Sorry. Just doesn't sit right with me.

why would anyone think they are interested in any type of progressive candidate. They are there to assure Oligarch dominenece

you were one of my favorite people at dkos. Welcome. Now that were bigger maybe you've been here awhile and I just haven't run into you. In any case I'm glad your here.

the Affordable Health Care Act's insurance rates per month let alone pay for prescriptions. It's also hard for people who work for themselves as contractors or own a small business to pay the insurance companies extortion premiums.

We're a sole proprietorship business and when we checked out the pools we found it we could not afford heath insurance even with the paltry subsidies offered. Were not poor enough or rich enough. If we bought health insurance we would not be able to pay the mortgage or our taxes and would be out of a home and our livelyhood.

To add to the problem the IRS is the decider of what you makeand what your subsidy will be. They use a complicated formula and believe me they have a vested interest in not giving you a meaningful subsidies break. So we are just waiting until we 'qualify' for medicaid and even then we still have to deal with the insurance extortionists.

We get a constant flow of mailers from Humana, Kaiser, etc It's a rigged healthcare system just like the primary is. It's ass backward and seems to have nothing to do with your access to healthcare and everything to do with the obscene profits of Big Pharma, hospitals for profit, and the insurance industry.

What happened to the talking point for The Insurance Subsidy Act that told everyone this would lead to single payable affordable insurance for all? 250$ in this 'economy' of austerity is just extortion from those who can least afford it.

Mark Warner is disgusting, in so many ways. Like Terry McAuliffe and Rahm Emmanuel, but without Rahm's brains (he does have some; he's a clever bully).

Arrogant asshole, and I thought I picked up a trace of racist condescension toward Obama even as he tried to hitch his wagon to Obama's star in '08.

Though Biden has no delegates. Or, good God, John Kerry. (In that case, Bernie should run third party.)

I'm not convinced that Trump will ever "debate" Clinton. He will say he will, but why do it? After all, he's already proven that he can improve his numbers by not showing up. Even if he does "debate" her, I would not be surprised if it's only once. Furthermore, I would expect that "debate" to be turned into a spectacle ... something akin to a professional wrestling free-for-all. You can almost visualize it at the end - Trump walking off in mock disgust after only 20 minutes, hurling "Crooked Hillary" epitaphs as he exits, stage right ... with at least 50% of the audience roaring in delight.

When she was asked about what she was going to do as First Lady, she said, in a very snotty way, something about not staying home and baking cookies. If she was a nice person, with any grace, she could have answered the question in a pleasant manner. It was the '90's, the 1990's, not the 1890's. It was a time when women had already established themselves as equals. Birth control pills had been around for 30 years. But she's not a nice person with any grace. She's a snot. And she's a terrible example of a woman. Certainly shouldn't be the first female president. She's an embarrassment.
