Were either Clinton or Harris the "lesser of two evils"? [View all] SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 OP

WTF does this mean? gab13by13 Apr 30 #1

It's a claim routinely made SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #4

But this is Democratic Underground. The people here are not green party voters or third party voters. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #7

Exactly SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #10

Also, I never questioned whether you voted for them or not SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #15

Apparently you do care if people voted happily for the candidates or not. That's exactly Scrivener7 Apr 30 #19

No my poll is asking SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #23

Stop shit stirring among your fellow DUers. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #26

I'm asking a simple question SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #28

Yes, let's do a poll that rehashes the Bernie v Hillary primary next. gab13by13 Apr 30 #30

No need to rehash that SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #33

I suggest you read Donna Brazille's book, gab13by13 Apr 30 #37

I thought you didn't want SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #42

This is Democratic Underground. What is the point of asking this question of this constituency? Scrivener7 Apr 30 #2

Exactly in this forum SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #5

So this is a way to pick a fight with the few who say no but who, because they are here, voted for both of them? Scrivener7 Apr 30 #6

Not trying to pick a fight with anyone SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #8

No, it IS designed to pick a fight. People choose their candidates for all kinds of reasons. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #12

I posted a simple poll SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #20

There's a yes vote. Someone has failed your divisive purity test. Now what? Scrivener7 Apr 30 #16

So? SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #21

You didn't answer any of my questions. Because the answers would obviously have to be ridiculous. Stop shit stirring. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #24

I'm not required to answer your questions SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #27

Of course not. And you won't. Because, as I said, any answer would have to be ridiculous. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #29

It's a simple yes or no question SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #31

And now you mischaracterize what I have said. And I believe that's intentional to distract from the fact that Scrivener7 Apr 30 #32

Sorry I misunderstood SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #34

How about: were Obama and Kerry the lesser of two evils. delisen Apr 30 #59

Actually have heard that accusation SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #60

Was about to ask similar Sympthsical Apr 30 #13

Shouldn't that be "Do you think Democrats are awesome?" SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #18

No one here Sympthsical Apr 30 #39

I'm just asking a simple question SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #63

No, they're women. sop Apr 30 #3

Why is this worded in the negative? Melon Apr 30 #9

How so? SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #11

I'm really not sure what you are even asking. Melon Apr 30 #14

There are many who still make the claim SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #17

Please do link to anyone on DU who ever said anything of the sort. Scrivener7 Apr 30 #22

Never claimed anyone on DU did. SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #25

It is obvious to me that this poll is divisive and insulting. gab13by13 Apr 30 #35

Sorry that you find it that way SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #36

I believe that Kamala Harris won the election gab13by13 Apr 30 #41

Fine SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #43

It's shit stirring for no good reason. Emile Apr 30 #40

Why? SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #44

Exactly, why are you posting this to begin with? Emile Apr 30 #45

Because people on other platforms SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #47

Then go there and ask them n/t leftstreet Apr 30 #48

I have SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #50

I am sorry if I misread your intentions, gab13by13 Apr 30 #52

Thanks SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #54

We have a completely revamped understanding of what "evil" is now SSJVegeta Apr 30 #38

That was the rationale some "smart" people Johonny Apr 30 #46

This sounds serious Torchlight Apr 30 #49

We sure ended up with the evil lesser, that's for sure . . . Journeyman Apr 30 #51

I guess it depends on whether the voter is a misogynist or not Walleye Apr 30 #53

Just trying to figure out why this post has recommendations. TBF Apr 30 #55

Not attacking democrats SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #58

Each of us is the lesser evil of someone else. Clinton was the clear good candidate. She was robbed ... marble falls Apr 30 #56

No. My life would have been immeasurably better under both. W_HAMILTON Apr 30 #57

what does this accomplish? Shellback Squid Apr 30 #61

Makes me feel good SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #62
