You jumped to a conclusion. I was not lying. You can replace refute with corroborate in my statement. Lying would be a willful intent to deceive. I inadvertently chose the wrong word.
Right wing partisans all over the internet are pretending "not corroborate" is the same as "refute". Playing stupid is not an excuse for being blatantly dishonest in such a calculated partisan way. It's way too convenient for you to play that game. I'm not having it.
I'm telling the truth. You think I'm lying. Life goes on for both of us.
Well, by using the word "refute" you're spreading propaganda that insinuates Ford is lying. You know lots of misogynistic troglodyte scum are calling her a liar and political hit-artist. They're doing things like calling rape victims names and sending death threats. You have no idea how ugly the Trump supporting right has become. The outright bullies and sociopaths are all crawling out of the woodwork... like roaches. They use presumed unawareness of their intellectual-dishonesty as an excuse to hide behind. How horrible of Ford to make a false accusation! I hope she actually gets raped! That's the kind of s**t these sewer-dwellers are spewing. By saying false things you are giving cover to these bullies and pond scum.

I don't think they're are discouraged. They are angry and scared. Many were turned off by Clinton. She came off as arrogant and entitled, not to mention untrustworthy. I think people are sick of arrogant self-interested people seeking power.
Yet they showed out in droves and voted for her anyways. Even Bernie supports to who,e Clinton represented everything they were against voted cause she’s democrat.
Quite a few republicans voted for independents rather then vote for trump as they didn’t like him regardless of him being a republican yet trump still won.
There’s was a big push atleast in the republican gun owning groups to vote 3rd party to try to make a 3rd party possible. Didn’t seem to be such a push by the left. As long as there’s s democrat running even if said person repersents everything their against they vote for them. Gotta tout the party line. Or we could burn the party line and do what we believe is right rather then let the dnc tell us what’s right. I’d like the democrat party to be one I can support again. But that won’t haopen as long as people let the dnc decide everything for us and just blindly go with it. Where’s the backlash for what they did to Bernie? Where’s the rise up and removal of the current dnc and high party members?
No there won’t be change

I can say personally that the reaction of leading Democrat challenger in my district has pushed me towards the GOP incumbent, since the Dem started calling Kavanaugh a rapist, like its established fact. I don't think Dr. Ford is lying, but the whole thing is essentially, 'He said, she said'.

Why would you base your vote on this stuff rather than issues that actually affect you? The reason I won't vote for any Republican is they have a track record of obstructing almost everything that could be done to make this country better in order to save a handful of rich people some money.
I don’t vote democrat for the same reason
With Democrats it's at least a 50/50 shot, especially with the new younger Democrats now running. With the Republicans it's a 100% certainty they're taking their orders from the ultra-wealthy.

And the Republicans selected a socipathic narcissist to run against her. What did you expect?

Same for Democrats. Also realize that some people voted for Hillary because they were terrified they might literally die when the Republicans repeal healthcare reform. Maybe they will take away your SSI some day. Anything to save the wealthy a few dimes in taxes. It's their money.

Hahahahaha.... I'd say the same thing but for the Republicans. That Trump won is evidence that the left doesn't always put party first. If all Bernie supporters had voted for Clinton she wouldn't have lost. Hell, Bernie wouldn't have lost had he been nominated. Trump won because they left is more divided than the right.

Money protects them. They don't get publicity without corporate support. What we really need is finance reform, but that will never happen in 100 years now that the right is packing the Supreme Court with hard-right conservatives.

Hillary is a sociopathic narcissist, most politicians are,so yiu ight as well never vote.
At the 1996 Democratic National Convention in Chicago, I watched from my delegate seat as she created a 20-minute standing ovation for herself only to discourage it ("I have something to say"), then encourage it more so by circling slowly around the stage ... waving and pointing out friends for even more ovations, ad infinitum. Even the news media had little good to say about the display.
Pure arrogance. I sat down after the first five minutes.

Hillary Clinton creeps me out, I wouldn't feel safe in the same room as her.

If you are referring to my prior post, Hillary was simply the First Lady of the United States at the time, she had never been a candidate for public office.
So, the criticism I offered to her public displays had nothing to do with her being an elected official. It had to do with her over-solicited adoration from a willing audience.
