Go bernie go! He's doing better than I thought he would in Iowa. Okay admittedly I'm very liberal and I like Bernie Sanders. I like Elizabeth Warren. I don't like Hillary Clinton and I certainly wouldn't vote for her because she's female. I don't know honestly if I can stomach voting for her even in the general election. Perhaps I'm on the extreme side of the party. Or maybe I'm just disgusted with politics in general.
Something this month got me wondering, especially now that Ted Cruz won Iowa and Donald Trump came in second. OMG. Ted Cruz I thought okay sure the guy knows how to be a politician and run a campaign. He's going to collect a lot of votes and is a solid contender. But until today I really wondered who the HELL would support Trump and what is the reason? Well he's got supporters and they are real. I was wondering if the polls were a bunch of crap (much like the polls saying Bernie had real support!)
Honestly I figured that Donald Trump was riding the wave of being a celebrity. Now I don't think so. Now I am starting to feel the Bern and believe there is a political revolution and revolt on our hands. I think that there are many liberals and conservatives who are disgusted by the system and want something different.
Much like any liberal supporting Bernie those supporting Trump don't want an establishment candidate and feel DC is corrupt. I am sort of getting excited at that prospect. Maybe there is some sort of change coming.
I'll be honest I couldn't vote for any of the Republican leading candidates, I could vote for Kasich if he were nominated. However I would be super excited to see something crazy like Bernie versus Trump or Cruz. I'd love to see the establishment politics tossed on it's backside and neither candidate have big money behind them owing everyone else. If it were one of those two against Bernie I'd like to see which way the US leans and I'd feel the average joe had spoken up so even if Trump or Cruz won I'd be okay.
Who do you support? Do you think they'll win? I am cheering as we speak for Bernie. I'd love him to give Hillary a tough race and WIN.
Feel the bern!

I'm more about fiscal responsibility and the government following holding up the constitution. Don't care about their religion. And I definitely don't need the government offer all sorts of entitlement programs. That is where the budget gets out of whack. Once the government starts spending it is very hard to turn it back around.

Kasich definitely seems like the most reasonable of the Republicans. I would have thought Christie a couple years ago, until that bridge scandal revealed how corrupt and unprofessional he is.

But that aside I think Marco Rubio an establishment candidate. I am curious what was on the credit card statements he's been hiding and if I were the establishment I'd start pulling his dirty laundry out now instead of later. He should get ahead of it. Plus he's very much about the money which I can't stand.
I'd heavily consider Micheal Bloomberg if he jumped in. I hope that the polls have no idea where Bernie really stand. I think they are underestimating his support in many states, plus the establishment wants Hillary. uggh.

I don't like Hillary at all and I hope she doesn't win.

I have to admit I was stumped reading Hillary won by a coin toss? Ugh. Bernie needs to give her the smackdown in NH and start rolling in the rest of the US. I just can't stomach more establishment with bush or clinton. I really wanted someone different. Maybe I'll get my wish. I also think that super pacs allow candidates to be bought and sold.
