Hillary Clinton is Done: part 2

This one time, I tried to tell a Bernie supporter that Bernie might not get the nomination.

Boy, was that a mistake.

I'm even a Bernie supporter. I mailed in my primary vote for him yesterday.

But Bernie supporters don't want to talk about the rain. Today, there was a 60% chance of rain. But sure, a 40% chance that it wouldn't rain. And yet, by Bernie supporter logic, I shouldn't talk about the rain because "there's still a chance" that it won't rain and the lack of rain is better than wearing a coat, and isn't that sun great! I should blissfully ignore the larger potential for rain, and let my wife and children go about their day completely unprotected from the rain, because, yeah, the alternative is better.

There are plenty of Sanders supporters who accept that about the only chance of him winning is if Clinton is indicted, and that is very unlikely. They are just significantly less vocal about it than what I like to call 'Sanders Supporters who make the rest of us look bad'.

I'm having a hard time following your analogy. I assume it raining is Clinton winning the nomination. But what is the coat? If it does rain, what does it matter whether they acknowledged the odds of it raining, or whether they wore a coat or not?
 
With a few more superdelegates declaring, Clinton now only needs 78 more delegates to cinch the nom. Sanders got 3 more supers himself but he's still way behind.

And Clinton is winning the Democratic Primary in WA State even though the differently resulted caucus is how the delegates will be assigned. So much for Sanders claiming the more people that vote the better he does.

I already answered your middle question, in detail. See if you can find the post.

You won't say it directly but since you don't believe these women you obviously think they are lying.

And there you have it, Hillary supporters think women are liars. Especially when they say they were sexually assaulted.

This is like demanding evidence that John Gotti or Al Capone ever personally killed anyone.

You can't possibly be claiming she bears no responsibility for what her hired guns do, are you?

Transparent evasion. Your claims are apparently bs, of the steaming variety. Your pathetic list is pathetic.

Just because you hold a low opinion of someone, even if for good reason, that doesn't make it fair to hang every imaginable allegation around their neck as if she's your own personal Xmas tree. Nor is it fair to blame a person for the sins of their spouse.

Sharpen your pencil. This is a skeptics forum, not a Sean Hannity forum.

By all means, provide evidence of what her hired guns did. (Not Bill Clinton's hired guns mind you.)

Right. I'm a Sanders supporter, but I can at least count, and I see no problem in discussing the potential—now likelihood—that Sanders hasn't got a snowball's chance in hell. The other, highly vocal group of Sanders supporters are teetering on the edge of fanaticism, and the mere suggestion that Sanders can't/won't win is taken as blasphemy.

The coat is whatever you want to make of it. The point is that some Sanders supporters don't want to talk about the likely outcomes, even though they're likely.

You might want to take a gander at the Clinton Emails thread or just about any news source before you count anyone out....

And when he loses, a number of conspiracy theories will be born.

Did you think that Hillary supporters held a belief that all women are incapable of lying? Is that the false dichotomy you are trying to create? Seems like an odd position. I love my kids and I don't think they lie often, in fact I trust them implicitly. Yet, I know they are capable of lying. It is a human trait. Even some non-humans can lie. Even full grown cheetos have been shown to lie.

Aren't you a pro-Republican Bernie "supporter"?

Obviously not, I am anti-Hillary, and a Bernie supporter.

Knowing that Hillary is unfit for President spans the entire Political spectrum.

She is really taking it on the chin today!:thumbsup:
