He just won the swing states and that cost her superdelegates. That she IMMEDIATELY switched to supporting him throughout his entire campaign speaks greatly about where her priorities lie, something that many Bernie supporters love to gloss over. When you're being smeared by the Republican party for decades, you're bound to lose credibility among people who don't bother to do their research. (Bernie bots). You're implying that knowing someone better should make them more likely to win when it's the total opposite. You're suffering from a case of "Grass is Greener". Still it was interesting to see how a big name such as her lost to someone unknown like Obama. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make anybody who is thinking about voting for him, want to turn around and just say forget it! Their extreme tactics & rhetoric is becoming so atrocious lately, that what they are doing is obscene in & of itself. Smh I'm also sick of being told by "Bernie Bros" that the only reason I support Hillary is because I'm black, and black people ALWAYS support criminals!!! Smh Just disgusting rhetoric! And I have been told this exact same thing more than several times now already... Ah, you are one of those "low information" voters...you know, one of those "from the conservative states". So, you have been getting a sense of racism from the BernieBros, huh? Their misogyny and racism has been leaking out lately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point its pretty clear that Bernie supports his supporters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obama wasn't unknown. He was a Senator. Are you claiming Senators are unknown? Clinton was First Lady. Naturally she has a big name, but that does not translate to favorability. Do you honestly believe that the Lewinsky scandal worked favors for her in the political sphere? Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was a Senator just like he was. If she had a bigger name then, it was because she was the wife of a President who had one of the most globally known presidential sex scandals. People knew Hillary because of Bill, and not for only good things I assure you. Edited just now by LebaneseDude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its hard when you play with semeone sentiments in politics to change their minds. A lot of people will continue to hate Hillary for years, even if they would forgot why. The only card that she can play is to remmember his supporters that maybe they hate semeone else more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess my small sub-human brain can't comprehend all the innate complexities of a National Presidential Campaign. So I just end up voting of course for the person that other people tell me to.

I'm not sure though after that debate the other night. They were being so hostile it made the Clinton/Obama debates look like an afternoon tea. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.

Hillary Clinton is a household name. So was Obama, once Oprah had him on her show and endorsed him back at the height of her popularity. Obama is, was, and always will be a highly gifted public speaker. Like Kennedy, he has the charisma factor that very few people that ever run for this position have. Obama could have beat out anyone, besides maybe Reagan back in the day. That would have been a showdown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why do you assume it's a good thing, when many people associated Hillary with the scandal? If you ever watched "The Good Wife", you'd understand. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.
