"What else can one do, Reg?"

Truth be told, nothing. If you live in a state where this will be a close contest then I don't blame nor have an issue with anybody that votes for Hillary in a general election. Is it horrible that you have to do this...yes, I think so...but I understand it. I am just really unhappy that has to be the case and that the idiots known as the DNC did all they could to put us in this position.

"I agree with a lot of your misgivings, really."

Yes, I know we are all coming from the same place I just have had it with elections where we basically have to decide which limb to amputate. It totally infuriates me that the media did all they could to sell out Sanders and push people to vote for Clinton. I am happy though that the people...outside of the South...have continued to vote for Bernie despite the fact the Democrats and the filthy corrupted media have pushed for him to get out of the race.

"Yes, she's about the accumulation of power, at any price. And I have detested her husband for years. But a Trump victory is unthinkable."

Sigh...yes, honestly the Clintons stand for all that's wrong with politics but for whatever reason just because they have a big 'D' next to their name they get cut all the slack in the world by the media and Democrats. Bottom line to me is a dirty politician is a dirty politician no matter who they wish to affiliate themselves with.

"As Dan mentioned, you have to focus on the Supreme Court justices that she'll nominate, and the far-reaching consequences of the court's balance of power."

I am well aware of that argument but weigh it against the idea of electing corrupt politicians. Basically, I can only hope she is indicted soon.

"If she wins, we should be vigilant, and vociferous in condemning those policies which we disagree with."

We won't have to the Republicans will do that for us and be looking to impeach her the second she sets foot in the White House.

"You're in Massachusetts where, truth be told, your vote doesn't really matter."

Yes, my vote is meaningless. I am meaningless. What I say is meaningless. The Democrat wins Massachusetts whether I vote or not. Hillary, thanks to a party boss like Menino, owns this state. She won the primary here (barely) because Menino spent so many years selling her to the large population centers in the state. I know I have the luxury of being able to abstain from voting here and I can run off at the mouth about Hillary with no concern about staying home. However if you live in a state like Florida or Ohio then you best get out to vote...even if it is for garbage like Hillary Clinton.

I know that's the reality...I don't have to like it though.
