...and against Donald Trump!
Let's face a fact, a lot of democrats voted against her for whatever reason. Those reasons haven't gone away.
Us democrats seem to think the majority of the country is generally tolerant and progressive like us. I haven't seen that at the voting booths.

I'm sure some of us think we can easily win with an openly gay crossdressing Hispanic/black woman with a hammer & sickle tattoo if only we gave her a chance, because America is ready. We need someone with universal appeal across the spectrum.
