They're starting to sprout up... like weeds in summer. The signage for presidential candidates I mean. Ok, I'm guilty... I admit it. I put up two small, discreet "Vote Bernie" stickers of my own.
But the anointment of Hillary is clearly approaching. Kinda like a mudslide after a clear-cut. They're even laying a guilt trip on Sanders for not joining the cheering throngs in this historic moment - the first woman to be a major party candidate.
Guilt evidently has become the new political weapon of choice. Tell me: did the much lampooned Madeleine Albright speech about "a special place in hell for women who don't support Hillary" make a comeback? Silly me... I thought it was still good for a few laughs.
Speaking of guilt trips, Mr. Trump's supporters could just as easily whine about the failure of Republicans to jump on a congratulatory
band-wagon for "The Donald". To their immense credit, many haven't. Some even refuse to wave as the band-wagon passes. Maybe, it's the
thought of losing again... this time their lunch... if they climb aboard. I think Mr Sanders' supporters view
Clinton in much the same light. Instead of concentrating on issues, she
hurled unconscionable smears at Bernie; refused to share a syllable of
those little hundred grand honorariums for Wall Street speeches; ran her
own private servers in clear violation of policy; voted for war
in Iraq over WMD; and now promises a "no fly" zone over Syria... yes sir,
she'll show Obama and the rest of the boys 'n girls how it's done. Clearly she's
a deep well of "foreign policy experience" and unquestionable
trustworthiness. Honest as the day is long.
I think Bernie and his supporters fighting to the last is a good thing for the Party and the country.
