104. This is the problem of painting people with a broad brush...

Tue May 3, 2016, 01:31 AM

May 2016

Truth is I supported Obama in 2008, voted in the mid-term and supported President Obama in 2012. I was proud to stand for 14 hours waiting to get into the inauguration of President Obama in below freezing temperatures. I have voted Democrat since 1974 and intent to continue voting for the foreseeable future.

So I don't support Hillary, never have...probably never will. That is MY RIGHT as a bleeding heart liberal of the Democratic party to vote as I will - for whom I will.

So glad you pulled up your "jock strap" and voted for President Obama - shows you have taste.

Who I vote for in the General is not decided as I don't know who will be the candidate at this time. I get to vote in June in the primary and that vote will be for Bernie - whether anyone on DU believes it is a good vote or a bad vote is not my concern.

So take your ugly rant and shove it in your jock strap and enjoy!!
