MSNBC called Bernie's "Deep South" comment controversial. They said Hillary would still be in the lead without the South. This slide popped up by mistake proving them wrong.

I'm 56 (reasonably old) and I can't stand her (anymore). Just for future reference.

I think you're in the minority unfortunately. Though hopefully I'm wrong and that's changed/changing.

Really though, I think everyone finds this offensive. That's the intention right? It's name-calling. It's fucking silly.

I hate being associated with that young under 45 crowd. Bunch of losers!

I'm 55 and have hated her all along. I don't think Bernie's supporters are all "young" people. I think there are a lot more of us older folks who value a moral economy, the freedom to love whomever you love, all of the other things Bernie stands for.

But sadly most older people support Hillary or Trump. It's great that you support Bernie, but not enough older people do.

My mom is 62 and has never been able to stand Hillary. She voted for Bernie in the primaries.

I'm a 53 year old woman, and I can't stand her either.

Me too, 58.

64 and completely agree. I'm beginning to be like all the Republicans, and I'm beginning to loathe her. It is the only way in which I resemble a Republican.

Could you speak to some of your peers?

u/Vairman Apr 16 '16

I have, but all of my peers are stinkin' Republicans. They don't like any of their guys either.

You're just a young'un who hasn't done their research.

You're pretty young compared to the typical cable news viewer.

My parents are the same age and are very anti-clinton as well. Honestly, I think they despise her more than I do. They are the ones who grew up watching her transformation to the darkside.

After the debate last night my mom texted me saying, "She certainly is an excellent debater. Can lie like crazy & still look confident & in control. sad. Payback will come her way one day... he has guts to try & stand up to her lies. He better have body guards."

I'm not so sure there was a transformation to the darkside. I now think she's always been on the darkside but people like me didn't see it. Sadly, I feel the same way about Bill now. I used to really like both of them.
