Good--I hope the Sandersites are appropriately pissed that every stop has been pulled out by the underhanded Clintonites and their party and media enablers (e.g., reporting on superdelegates as though they aren't able to switch on a dime like they did 8 years ago) to coronate that crook. Maybe some of them will be disgusted enough to vote third party.
With a choice this rotten for the fall, the ugliness of this campaign should reach new lows.
Didn't she have it pretty well locked up from the get-go due to the DNC super-delegates? Isn't this sort of like the "star athlete" taking a victory lap after winning in the Special Olimpics?

Well that's just it--superdelegates are not bound to anyone, so their promises to support Hillary are meaningless if Sanders won more earned delegates. The fact that the media kept treating super delegate leads as though they meant something was dishonest pro-Clintonite flim flam.
"A blow hard and a liar. What a choice in November."
A three shell Monte operator with no pea on one side and a soon to be indicted and presidential pardoned sold to the highest bidder liar on the other. I'm moving if either of them wins. Maybe to Russia where I can have regular doses of hypocrisy pure and undiluted.
It's Trump vs. Clinton now. She will begin trying out snipes that graze him but don't quite get his full attention, kind of like shooting a bear with a BB gun. And she will discover this bear feels all incoming BB's. And he responds with an Uzi. And the Dems should be mighty mighty worried.
"That would at least be a choice. What we have is a blowhard and liar versus a blowhard and liar."
I'd say it's between two people who are both corrupt, dishonest, erratic, show poor judgment, are insecure, exhibit poor temperament, are woefully unqualified, and have an authoritarian streak. Usually there's at least a "less bad" alternative, even where you're not thrilled with the choices. This is more like deciding which foot gets crushed.
The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat are what help us regulate our irrational side.
Good old fashioned hate/competition is what has always been missing in a politically correct Socialist Paradise like Sweden. Trump is reminding us that it is our birthright and is doing his best to restore it.
Religions are into fighting too. That's why they are dangerous.
I've been voting for forty years and this is the first time I can recall an election where one of the candidates is the subject of a criminal investigation. Eventually the details will leak so even if Clinton were to get elected and Obama pardon her prior to taking the oath of office unless the Democrats control congress she would be looking at impeachment and removal. A Republican Congress has no reason to be considerate of a Democrat criminal. For all the wailing of thwarting the people yada,yada,yada the simple retort is the president had her election and we had ours.
If the Republicans are smart ( I know) they will make Clinton's criminality the theme of the campaign not only for the presidency but for congressional elections. It's not going to easy for Democrat congressional candidates to dodge the question of Clinton's criminality and potential indictment or indictment is delayed and a pardon issued the underlying evidence that would prompt an impeachment proceeding and subsequent trial and if they would acquit solely for political reasons even if the evidence of wrongdoing is clear.

C'mon. The waves aren't going to disappear because one of these morons got elected. Besides. You can't bitch unless you play and you can't play unless you're here.

How many Sandernistas go over to Trump? Gotta be a couple.
A blow hard and a liar. What a choice in November.

I can't see that Drudge's headline antagonizes anyone except for the sort of people already routinely antagonizes.
Will Sanders be Trump's VP on a true protest ticket? Time will tell.
It is News, I suppose. And the sun came up in the morning.
Hillary's fix is in.

I don't remember ever having a choice this awful.

Would be hilarious if there was a Trump / Sanders ticket.

That would at least be a choice. What we have is a blowhard and liar versus a blowhard and liar.

If she is elected and she is indited and found guilty, can she pardon herself as President?
