6. I'm a Hillary supporter, but if the "laundromat revolution' prevails I'll support Bernie gladly,
Mon Sep 7, 2015, 05:15 PM
Sep 2015

albeit with great fear. I am afraid another Republican presidency and House would be gravely damaging to America in these very hazardous and pivotal times. This without even considering a Supreme Court with 3 very potential vacancies.

Love the term "laundromat revolution," btw -- spot on and very real. As long as Democrats prevail in the White House and in general in 2016, its power will enable them to move left from centrist positions they've been forced to occupy. If right-wing ideologies, or whatever they are, prevail, all bets off and Katie bar the door...
