Why? Why? Why?

If they had, this wouldn't be the lesser of two evils and they'd be absolutely running away with it at this point.

Kasich would have gotten my vote without a second thought.
He was my guy but he got something like 5%. Too many mouth breathers got in the way and fell for "I know words, I use the best words". So as far as I'm concerned, those dumbf##ks deserve 4 years of Hillary.

I'm registered independent, so when I went to vote in the primary I had to choose if I wanted the democrat ticket or the republican ticket.

I didn't think there was any way in the world that Trump would ever end up as the nominee, so I got the democrat ticket and voted for Bernie to hopefully keep Hillary from getting the democrat nomination.

I don't think it would have mattered if I went the other way to vote for Kasich in the primaries, but I didn't think I'd have to. I would have never guessed they would be so stupid to give Trump the nomination.

On the flip-side, why couldn't the Dems produce anyone other than Hillary and Sanders? Neither of them turned the dial for me.

I semi-liked a couple on the Repubs side (namely Kasich) but it turned into a media **** show on both sides of the aisle.

Who would have imaginted that American's election would turn into Reality TV?

Hillary had enormous momentum from the beginning and I think other candidates just sat this one out

The DNC was going to make certain that Hillary got the nomination. It really wasn't about momentum. The fix was in years ago.
