conservative astroturfing. love it!

“why would she tweet that?”

because it’s important.

this post is so embarrassing and so is that response tweet. how did you want her to present this information? or did you just want her to shut up about the very topics which you self admittedly find to be critical?

reactionary posturing. not even a meme. for the love of everything you care for don’t let this shit affect your vote.

Honestly, she deserves credit for even showing the yellow line.

And to also show the whole right side of the graph.

She really could have cropped the picture differently to give it a spin, but she's being honest.

Like it or not, right or wrong, Hillary is a pariah. They are asking why a person that knows they are polarizing figure in their own party would step up onto a podium when that party is trying to scrape together every vote it can.

Even tho she's right, there's more democrats likely to be put off by the delivery than there is on the fence voters being swayed.

Homegirl needs a pen name.

lovely. and by boosting this message, reposting it across social media sites, her divisive-pariah message is getting a greater traction than if OP left it alone.

i don’t follow her on twitter do you? why are we cool with dredging up shit we know is going to be divisive?

honestly thanks for this insight, i’m embarrassed even more by this post now.
