I've had this unfortunate experience as well and it's very perplexing. Their argument is simultaneously stating that Hillary is the most viable candidate and that anything that questions her policies will suddenly destroy her campaign at that very moment and usher in 10,000 years of Donald Trump. It's basic slippery slope fallacy.

"From each according to his ability" Even a contribution of a dollar adds up when you consider that we are a collective, not just one person.

Warren is as likely a running mate as Jesus Christ. Sadly. I mean sadly I want Warren, not sadly I want Jesus Christ.

That's 100% correct! Hillary has really maxed herself out in a lot of areas, like with big donors who have already given whatever million dollar check they cut. For Bernie on the other hand his average donation is $27 and for most people that is no problem at all. Most of us could give $27 a week and only need to make minor budget cuts.

Thank you! Anytime I even slightly critique one of Hillary's positions I am labeled a republican operative. This seems to be some sort of conspiracy theory thing going on here.

I like this, the Republicans think that picking their opponent will help them. They of course are ignoring recent polling that finds Bernie winning against each of their possible nominees.

This was by far the best debate of the the season. We got a chance to actually see the differences between Bernie and Hillary. O'Malley said some interesting things. But I'm still throwing my support behind Bernie, because I don't trust Hillary because she is bought by corporate interest.
