    Every Republican repeatedly name drops Hillary Clinton in their speeches because they know it chums the waters for the GOP base. Democrats would be wise to realize that. She is the one Republicans want to run against.

    Trump can't wait to take on Hillary one on one.
    He just has to wait awhile.

    Bernie sure felt the Bern tonight by getting smoked by the Hildabeast. I really thought he was going to take Illinois after seeing all those misfits at his rally last night......I sure hope he stays in this thing...

    Don't be to sure. Many Sanders supporters, such as myself, could never vote for Hillary.

    Hillary has a load of baggage. She's flipped flopped more than Trump and probably more than Mitt R. I believe Trump could actually beat her. I'm sure he's got some dirt on her, and she also has a record of being supported by special interest. Let's not forget Trump helped finance her campaigns. It's going to be nasty, assuming Sanders doesn't come from behind

    Hey guys, pay attention. regardless of what happens, they're still counting. Way to throw in the towel early. MO &IL have less than 25% reporting in.

    These are live feeds

    Even if Bernie lost tonight, they aren't wipeouts. He may move on.

    I just re-read what I wrote. I can see where it could sound like throwing in the towel. Good call, Free.

    I'm still voting for Bernie and I'm still seeing his run as a win. And to the best of my knowledge, Sanders hasn't quit. When it our turn here, I'm voting Bernie.

    So you would rather live 4 years with President Drumpf than Clinton?
    That's crazycakes!

    Last nights reaction from Bernie supporters proves again most US democrats have the spine of a wet loaf of bread and the courage of a drone operator.

    I'll never vote for someone who uses super pacs. If it's Hillary vs Trump I'll just vote Green Party or write in Bernie. I don't vote for the lesser of two evils anymore. I feel like I've been doing that for a while now.

    That's your personal choice, but know that many of us who care deeply about human rights will hold those of you who took an empty stand responsible for the human rights violations that a Trump presidency will surely bring.

    More proof that Clinton and Trump are in this together. One big lie. Don't buy that they hate each other, they are rigging the system.

    Still feeling the Bern to the end, there's a long way to still go.

    Oh please give me a break. Why would you put that kind of guilt on anyone? I don't care for either Hillary or Trump, but it's my fault if Trump wins. The American people deserve better candidates who are supposed to be given equal opportunity but that just doesn't happen in this country. India has hundreds and hundreds of candidates based on their population. We are only allowed 2 in the end. This country is gonna get what it deserves. Some schill for corporate interests.

    I will take the schill over Trump every day. Like I said, it's all about pain and suffering to some people, and Trump is clearly going to cause more pain and suffering.
    Voting for Stein or writing Bernie in will do absolutely ZERO to change our continually shitty crop of candidates. All it will accomplish is splitting the vote enough for a foulmouthed clown to win.
    If there were fewer idiots in this country, we might have a shot at changing the system, but until more people wake up, throwing away your vote is just that.

    If you refuse to choose the lesser of 2 evils, then you had better be prepared to accept the greater evil.

    Obama didn't take the lead until May/June. He lost 21 states. We lost 15 states.

  • It's all perspective. Trump is fucking terrible. Yeah I get it. But there is something about colluding with the DNC and riding other people's coattails to get elected that I find just as deplorable.

    I will always wonder how many voters perceived last Friday night in Chicago to be a glimpse of the revolution and didn't like what they saw.

    Of the 17 contests Hillary Clinton has won so far, 10 were in states she lost to Barack Obama in 2008.

    Will most definitely vote for Trump over Hildabeast. I'm not so sure she is the lesser of the evils...she's just been in politics longer. I'm somewhat considering Trump as a protest in and of himself. A protest against career politicians, super packs, establishment. As much as I dislike the dude as a person, he may be the wake up call Washington needs to help the career politicians wake up and change their strategies. I love that all these assholes are flushing corporate money down the drain running against a "mostly" self funded candidate. I was really hoping it would boil down to a Trump vs Bernie campaign (though I have a few idealogical differences with a Democrat Socialist), but anyone that will drag Hillary through the mud has my support. Who knows, maybe this is exactly what we need to dissolve this payed for two party dynasty system in future elections.

    Sure, and maybe it will dissolve into a dictatorship, but who cares Hilary sucks right?
    Fight the man!

    Dissolve into a dictatorship? That is the funniest thing I've read all day from someone supporting big government. You are starting to sound like the fearmongers you so adamantly appose. And yes, Hillary SUCKS, just not as well as Lewenski evidently.

    Oops, forgot to add an emoji at the end...does that help one appear "smarter"?

    I'm just saying, it seems like a more legit method of protesting than crying and saying "I'm not going to vote :bawling: "
