Yesterday I expressed my opinion on the whole Joe Biden stepping aside and his endorsement of Kamala Harris.
And I put it on my blog’s Facebook page. Which means I have been essentially subjected to the verbal diarrhea attacks and random streams of consciousness of I don’t know how many people.
I do not mind the people that can have an actual conversation about this, but I do mind the preachy, self righteous people who have to beat you into the ground verbally in lieu of a conversation.
It’s pretty simple: I don’t think she can win. She really didn’t do well when she was seeking the nomination last time so I don’t even know if she will get to the nomination.
Saying that doesn’t mean I think she’s a bad person or she’s not qualified. She is. But can she actually win?
I am allowed to have my opinion.
Of course, if she becomes the nominee, I hope I’m wrong. Why? Because the alternative is terrifying to democracy.
But all the ridiculous comments I’ve received? I’m so negative. I’m so bad, and I’m so everything horrible by members of my own political persuasion? Not acceptable. STFU.
And this is some thing that Democrats always do. I’ve been watching it since the days I was handing out eminent domain flyers in front of a polling place in Ardmore years ago, where local Democrats were walking older people into the polls and saying “vote like we told you to.”
I don’t think that tactic works. And it shouldn’t work. We are a democracy, which means we are entitled to our opinions on these things.
So Chester County and other area Democrats? Get off the attack rat train.
Instead of attacking me, why don’t you calmly have a conversation and tell me why I’m not right?
And what none of you get is I would vote for a thumbtack over Donald Trump.
If Kamala Harris proves me wrong, that’s a positive for preserving democracy. But if you honestly want to know what I fear, it is when she ran last time for this nomination, she was a little too extreme and that turned people off.
And then people had to give me an education on Michelle Obama, like she was their close personal bestie. I know she has never expressed interest in political office, but the reason I mentioned her is that she is a Democrat who is a woman that I think could win. And again, that’s also my opinion. But then just be completely rude and patronizing to me and say to me that I need to be realistic not have fantasy choices it’s like so many of you completely lack basic reading comprehension?
Hi, I’m not playing fantasy football here, I’m discussing politics. And I’m discussing my opinion on politics. I’m not always going to agree with you and that doesn’t make me a bad person or necessarily wrong. It’s just a different opinion.
I’m not a sheeple.
For the record, I didn’t think Hillary Clinton could win, either and I was right.
So we shall see what happens.
