4. The Hillary hate is strong today on Daily Kos

Here's another from today:

A brutal, bitter choice awaits Sanders' supporters: selling out for the lesser evil
by Left of what

Yeah, sorry for the “brutal” in the title. Couldn’t resist what seems to be common clickbait here.

I live in Massachusetts, so should I allow myself the luxury of writing in Bernie, I’m pretty sure Clinton 2.0 will win anyway. I am truly struggling with this. On one hand I REALLY don’t want Trump, aka Hillary’s November Firewall, to win, but I despise her. She may be qualified, but she is not worthy.

If I lived in a red state, I’m sure I would feel a lot more pressure to take my medicine and vote for the candidate Molly Ball says “remains essentially centrist in orientation—a candidate friendly to the party’s donor class and elites, well-connected with its institutions, and incrementalist in her approach to policy.” But make no mistake, it would be painful.

ONLY the specter of the most vile candidate in history can save her ass - if indeed it does.
