Wow, more people are voting against Hillary than for her. Guess this place isn't a liberal paradise like you fucking crybaby conservative perpetual victims make it out to be.

44% for Hillary, 24% for Trump as of now. You were saying?

But continue on with your elaborate insults and name calling like you always do. Such a contribution to the thread.

You forgot the 30% in the other category, they're not voting for either or not voting, so technically he's correct.

I didn't forget it, and no he's not. The 3rd option doesn't designate Republican or Democratic. Or voting at all. When it is split up between the two, Hillary wins. Good try though.

Most of the people here voting "other" are doing so because they will not vote for Hillary or Trump. Some of them will vote 3rd party and some just won't vote, but they are still doing that because they are anti-Hillary as well as anti-Trump. Also, some of the people voting for Hillary are doing so not because they like her but because they dislike Trump more (and a few are probably doing the opposite for the same reason).

All it shows is that this place isn't skewed liberal as heavily as some people would like to believe, which was the main point I was making.

I'm voting for a pair of balls. Balls that took a million and created an empire. Balls that didn't sleep in while four Americans died. Balls that didn't have an E-mail server for nefarious purposes. Balls that didn't take money from countries that continue to treat woman, gays, etc like shit and then turn around and say we need more of said rights. Etc, etc, etc ad nauseam.

The decision for me is clear, conscience and just plain common sense. Hillary does not deserve to be flipping Commander In Chief. That would be an outrage. I would have heartburn just watching killary lay the wreath every Memorial.

But to some people, "what difference does it make?" Color me an idiot for being part of that "deplorable basket." At least I'm not part of a bucket of crabs where if one tried to escape the other just pulls him right back down again.

My condolences to you and your family that you are so easily duped.

You drive a pick-up truck with a plastic pair of truck balls hanging off the back don't you?

baring some kind of catastrophic upset, Clinton.

4 more years of the same, and it gives Republicans another chance at finding a sane candidate in 2020 to replace her with if she sucks.

I can see Trump doing a lot more damage than Clinton in a single term.

For me it's more that I'm not a sociopath, so not Trump.
Hillary said a no fly zone wasnt going to be used for regime change. Then our drone strikes helped stop a motorcade that was beset by "moderate" terrorists who then sodomized a man to death with a knife on international TV. Hillary then joked and laughed about it.

I hope for the sake of your conscience you're voting third party.

C'mon man...they're called Truck Nutz and Conner is too classy for those. His fantasy Fox News wives would never approve.

In a country of about 320 million people, it's sad that these two pieces of excrement are our two main choices. :disappointed:

I understand your concern and will address it in due time.
Examples:
You leave out the name of the man who was killed: Gaddafi, a man who committed thousands of human rights violations including mass rape, torture and massacre.
The way your post is written makes it seem like Hillary joked and laughed about Gaddafi being sodomized, when in reality she was reacting only to the news that he was dead.

I am always intrigued by posts like these and wonder if you can tell me exactly what you think makes Hillary a piece of shit.

the best candidates for the job are too smart to actually want it.

that's said, let's not put them on equal footing... if Clinton is a piece of shit, by comparison Trump is a flaming dumpster full of shit covered with toxic waste.

I subscribe to the opinion that even crappy people deserve human rights. I don't laugh when crappy people die, but then I've never been the architect of someone's death.

She lied, her lie led directly to his extra judicial murder on international TV, and then she made it a joke on camera - herself. It's ghoulish.

I'm going to say something nice about Bush to provide the appropriate contrast. Saddam was captured, put on trial, convicted, and hung from the neck until dead. That's how modern, developed civilizations kill crappy people.

If people voting for Bernie can pull Clinton to the left on social and economic issues, then you bet your ass I'm voting Libertarian (as I would already be inclined to do) and encourage as many people as possible to do so in order to pull Clinton towards support of civil liberties and away from NSA spying and other bullsh!t. Such a movement on her part would move her from the 'unacceptable' category for me to the 'merely unappealing' which I could deal with since Trump is both unacceptable for the same reasons and likewise unappealing on his other positions and even moreso than Hillary on many of them.
