Even as the sands run out of the Bernie Sanders campaigns delegate hourglass, the upstart Democratic presidential candidates surrogates continue to hope for an outcome that results in Sanders becoming the nominee instead of Hillary Clinton. One of Sanders most vocal and vociferous surrogates has now taken those hopes to a dark place. In a recent interview with Larry King, Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon said shes still not ready to say she would vote for Hillary over Donald Trump, and told King that shed see what happens.
Asked what could happen to give Bernie the nomination, heres what Sarandon said:

(25,788 posts)"Clinton mentioned that she found the calls for her to leave the race strange. 'Historically, that makes no sense. ... I've been around long enough. You know my husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.' ... The cause of the uproar was a fresh story on the website of The New York Post, whose reporter ... wrote of Clinton, 'She is still in the presidential race, she said today, because historically, it makes no sense to quit, ... making an odd comparison between the dead candidate and Barack Obama.' Clinton, of course, had made no such comparison, but the horse had left the barn."
Right wing smear.

This is the same a-hole who in 2008 said that someone should take Hillary into a backroom and only "he" should come out.
Screw him!!!

Both sides could be doing this. One side is not. It is ugly. But then, it has been said enough and too many Sanders people just refuse to get it. Damn lucky us Clinton supporters are better than this.

IdaBriggs
(10,559 posts)start to get "real". It will give her a nice, graceful way out so she can deal with the issues NOT in full view of the public - saving face, as it were.

(10,559 posts)Bill was totally faithful, Edwards was too, and Hillary is "just friends" with the FBI folk.
Say, have you considered the investment opportunities in owning your very own bridge?
DemocratSinceBirth
(99,719 posts)I don't know how to respond without getting a hide so I will leave just leave it to your fertile imagination how I would respond if I had no such constraints.
IdaBriggs
(10,559 posts)This conversation is really going nowhere. Have a nice evening!
DemocratSinceBirth
(99,719 posts)I appreciate it.
IdaBriggs
(10,559 posts)The snide, nasty personal attacks? The innuendos and sneering? The "oh, you've been here twelve years, but really you are just like the Republicans" comments that make talking with you such a joy?
Seriously, why ASK to go on ignore instead of just doing it yourself, other than to be unpleasant? If you had been on ignore, I wouldn't have seen your smear implying that I was ill wishing their health. Feel free to use it, and I'm done for now, but don't think you've brought anything positive to the board today because you didn't.
Sigh. I'm in a grumpy mood tonight. If I've been inappropriate with my attempts at humor at your expense, I apologize.
Have a nice night.
ON EDIT: And YOU didn't make the "Republican" comment, that was the other poster, so my apologies for conflating the two of you with that accusation.

redstateblues
(10,565 posts)will keep Hillary out of the White House. So pathetic that it's Bernie's only path to the nomination. He doesn't have the votes or delegates.

(10,559 posts)Nice reach, though.
IdaBriggs
(10,559 posts)No one should be above the law. Your insulting slur that I am a Republican has been noted.
Good bye!

(99,719 posts)I will be in august company.
Thank you in advance.

(11,573 posts)If Hillary for any reason had to release her delegates, they wouldn't just disperse into the ether. She'd have to release them to someone, and that someone would be Joe Biden or John Kerry.
Bernie still loses.

puffy socks
(1,473 posts)so desperate as to wish indictments and bad health on Clinton. They have become the epitome of sleazy campaigning. The issues are rarely talked about honestly and openly.
My opinion of Susan Sarandon has gone straight down hill since I heard her absurd call for a Trump presidency.
