For those of you decrying Hillary's supposed "tactics" in the last few weeks
granting your premise is correct (which I don't think it is) -

Would you be just as pissed off if she was doing this to a Republican in the General?

2. We didn't fight this hard against these kind of tactics just to support them...
...based on who she's running against.

8. At the cost of voter supression and dirty pool?
No, I have no interest in winning that way.

9. "voter supression" (sic) is a loaded term
and in this case wildly inaccurate.

But, she is indeed conducting a tough, relentless campaign. Something we haven't seen on our side in a while.

4. I can't stand liars and phonies. Clinton has proven herself

to be both.

A few months ago I would have supported her but no longer. The debates showed her for what she really is - a game player.

I'll do whatever I can to see that she doesn't get elected. I only know 2 people who list her as their first choice, so I don't believe she has the big lead that the media claims anyway.

7. So at the end we'll end up with a bitterly divided country
and nothing will change. Yeah, I will be pissed. The only way real change will take place in this country (and the major problems (such as this country going bankrupt) will get addressed is if the new President can rally the country.

Ever heard of the term divide and conquer? Ever think the people in power are smart enough to use that strategy? But let's just keep creating more and more bitter partisans while this country goes the way of the Roman Empire.
