No patience for Bernie Babies any more.

As it looks tonight it was a split between Hillary and Bernie. She took Kentucky and he took Oregon. She now just 92 delegates short(including Super-delegates, yes I count them.) short of clinching. Baring her dropping out completely she will have the nomination after the last batch of primary's on June 7. 

Big question will be how much of a poor sport is Bernie going to be. Will he carry his illogical fight to the convention? If the mess in state Democratic convention where whinny Bernie supporters disrupted proceedings is any indication it could be trouble when the national convention starts in July. Unfortunately Sanders seems to have that lack that ability to think logically and reasonably. It seems to be that protestor/activist mentality is to win at all cost no matter how illogical or how out of touch with reality he is. 

Bernie babies seem to swarm at every social media posting about Hillary or Bernie and cry about how unfair everything is. I love the claim Hillary's not a real democrat. Really. Bernie's a only been a Democrat since last year. She has been one the late 60's. He's been and independent pain in the ass most of his life who despises both major party's. 

It has gotten tiring listening to whining and crying everything is unfair. The media's unfair. The Democratic primary is unfair. Closed primaries are unfair. Superdelegates are unfair. Bernie's hair cut isn't fair. People want pay Hillary to write books and give speeches isn't fair. It's one big bitchfest. It's getting old real fast. I was mildly annoyed before but it's really aggravating now.  I have no patience for them anymore.

I really can't wait for the primary's are over.  

92 is the magic number.

I'm taking my ball and going home



I've seen this "If Bernie doesn't the nomination I'm not voting for Hillary." statement many times on social media. Presidential primary battles can be heated but this kind of atitude is a sure sign of immaturity and doesn't help your candidate or anyone else. This "I'm taking ball and going home if you don't play my way" is a sure sign of immaturity. Who does this help? It's not very persuasive. People are not impressed by elementary school age playground banter. 

Say Hillary does win the nomination does staying home on election day help anyone. It actually helps the other side. One less vote to battle any Republican nominee which if the way things are going would be Trump. In essence you're voting for "The Donald" if give up your right to vote. How does that feel? 

I intend to vote for Hillary this coming March 1st. She is the one I feel the most confident leading our country and getting things done. As much as it pains me, if Bernie is nominated he'd be my choice come November. 

It's easy to get fired up and passionate about a candidate but don't get blinded and not see the big picture. Your team doesn't win if you stay home with your ball. If your participate you're still in the game and you can say you did your part even if you should not win.

Mean Tweets with Al Franken

 Although judging by the social media I've seen about Hillary Clinton these are pretty tame. The obnoxious Bernie Bots and Bros are immature and many times ridiculous rants about Hillary being bought and I'm not voting for her if she wins the nomination. This doesn't even include rants from the conservatives. For those that don't know Al Franken is a US Senator from Minnesota and is a Saturday Night Live Alumni. Anyway here is a little bit of humor for Friday.


Mean Tweets: campaign edition with Senator Al Franken.

What's going on in this election?

In all my life I haven't seen a Presidential elction like this. Each one does seem to have it's own character. Earliest one I remember was Reagan verses Carter in 1980. With Reagan screaming "I paid for this microphone in New Hampshire primary and the infamous "Are you better off 4 years ago" question to voters. In 84 we had sad sack Mondale taking on the great communicator. In 88 we had Michael Dukakis looking silly in a tank with his helmet looking a few sizes too big.



This seems to be the year of the angry voter. We have the bombastic ego maniac billionaire Donald Trump running. He has seemingly managed to insult almost everyone. If he hasn't gotten around to insulting you just wait a little while as I'm sure he'll get to you soon. Here's a short list of those he's managed to insult or fight with:

  • John McCain
  • Mexicans
  • Muslims
  • Meghan Kelly
  • Fox News
  • Ted Cruz
  • Pope Francis
  • Republican Party 
  • George W. Bush 
  • Debate audiences
  • Hecklers

Funny thing is that with a list like that you'd swear he's a Democrat.



On the other side we've Bernie Sanders who also seems to embattled with the party he's running. His Bernie-bots and bros have swarmed over social media attacking anyone who talks bad about Bernie or who dares say they like Hillary. Despite looking like a crazy old hippy community college professor whose crazy socialist ideas seem cool to the students.




I'll admit Hillary's my favorite but she seems to be stymied Sanders surging and dogged by an email scandal that doesn't seem to want go away. I backed her when she and Obama were battling it out in 2008 which was a tight race on the Democrat side. She has my support this time also as she seems to be the most sensible and experienced.

I really doubt Sanders would get very many of his ideas off the grounds as he represents the extreme left of the party. Obama has already been stymied by Congress and I really doubt Bernie with socialistic ideas would get any of them passed. Plus being and Independent I doubt he has many friends on either side his anger is only surpassed by Donald Trump. Neither of these two seem like Presidential material me at all. A president should have dignity, poise, statesmanship and tact which they have little or none, especially Trump.

As of right now I'm with Hillary which might surprise some. Despite her faults I think she's best qualified and most likely to get things done once she sets mind to it. She is also sensitive yet tough when she has to be. She is also respected world wide as the other two front runners seem amateurish. I'm with her as the campaign slogan goes.
