I think she is a “life-long” mexican citizen.

[Gritty]

I guess this dipsh!t is looking forward to standing in 6 hour long food lines for a chance to fight over a few rotten peppers like they do in that socialist paradise of Venezuela, too, eh?

Fine. Vote for Bernie. He'll also give you free college, too...

[Ouderkirk]

She was never a Republican to begin with....

We see this BS every cycle...to lure the weak ones away from the herd.

[Sasparilla]

There were many that hated Lincoln who when called for duty, went.

There were many that hated Woodrow Wilson who when called for duty, went.

There were many parents and draft age men in the late 30’s and early 1940’s who wanted no part of the military and despised Roosevelt. Yet, when duty called, the young men went.

And so it went during Korea and VietNam.

It’s something Americans do when duty to country calls.

A lifelong Republican from Los Banos...

Oh,c'mon...doesn't "banos" mean bathrooms?

[Theodore R.]

I read that there is a shelter for nearly all of the homeless if they are drug-free, but the shelters won’t take those under narcotics.

The “life-long Republican who is voting Democrat for the first time” stories are starting early this go ‘round.

[Busywhiskers]

More likely a life-long idiot.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

“Lifelong Republican” means they are a minor level Democrat apparatchik. They don’t care that in a day or two they will be unveiled as a Democrat precinct chairman or something.

The odd part is that they are so consistent with their lies. It’s as if they don’t care that increasing numbers of people just assume that “lifelong Republican” means Democrat.

[Blue Jays]

WOLVERINES!

[EQAndyBuzz]

By the way, where is Code Pink? They mysteriously disappeared from the narrative.

[Navy Patriot]

Oh,c'mon...doesn't "banos" mean bathrooms?

Word for word, yes.

More properly, the meaning is "The Baths" as in a naturally formed place to bathe.

[ChildOfThe60s]

If Trump is elected, I’m concerned about the quadrupling of the homeless population by February 2017.

I guess I should have included a sarcasm tag. ;-)

[Angels27]

If you can vote for Bernie Sanders....you NEVER were a Republican.

[nickcarraway]

Code Pink is still around, because they praised Trump, for giving voice to their positions after one of the debates.

[Mr. K]

wow!

People are probably doing it all over the place now because Bernie is so wonderful!!!

Right, media?

[Blue Jays]

"...Lifelong Republican..."

---

Exactly correct, yefragetuwrabrumuy.
When that phrase is seen in a story about someone switching parties, my immediate assumption is it is a Democrat Party operative.

[Chaguito]

This reads like an Onion article. Really.

[JBW1949]

Vote in a progressive, liberal communist and your kid will have to fight a war...in the USA....That is what will come...

[Robwin]

Yeah, right lady. So let’s take a look at the major peace candidates of the 20th century: Wilson, Roosevelt, Johnson, and Obama. Quite a record, huh? Are you aware that Noble Peace Prize winner Barack Obama will be the first President in our history to be engaged in combat situations for the entire course of his administration, all 8 years? You really think Sanders will be any different?
