What is this shit from Hillary about nominating the more "electable" candidate?
Hell, maybe she's right. Popular vote, delegates, superdelegates....all meaningless! In fact, let's scrap the whole fucking primary process. Every election year, in March, we'll just have CNN take a national Internet poll of who is the most "electable" and that person will be the nominee. Fuck all this state-by-state voting and delegate and superdelegate crap and letting the PROCESS determine the WINNER. Fuck all these rules and regulations that have been hammered out by the parties over the course of many decades.

Right, Hillary? Fuck it all. Change all the rules until they perfectly suit YOU and only YOU and your blind, insatiable thirst for power.

3. Not really. Dumbfounded is a better word.
At how any intelligent person with an ounce of common sense and logic could possibly contend that, despite what the votes said...despite how many delegates the candidates have...despite the superdelegates....the nomination should instead go to whoever proclaims herself to be the most "electable."

Really, just dumbfounded.

2. She means the "white candidate"
She's just showing her bigotry ... and that of her supporters.
