Clinton leading by 18.5 points still, 58.7%, with over 45% counted. Election day votes will not be enough to erase that lead.

Media needs to call it.

What? No. I hadn't even heard this nickname and if her NA heritage is legitimate it comes off as super racist.

That stuff came up for her Senate election and she won anyway.

She's only 1/32 Native American which means she cannot legally claim to be Native American but made a big deal out of it during her run for the MA Senate. Trump's Pocahontas nickname has and will definitely stick.

On the other hand, she is extremely intelligent and overqualified for the position. Tenured at Harvard Law School, the #2 law school in the country? Female senator? That's amazing.

It won't stick at all and it hasn't so far. The attacks didn't stick the first time around, or during her four years in the Senate. It's literally a non-issue and definitely isn't a reason not to pick her as a VP when our nominee has dealt with scandals like Whitewater, Monica Lewinsky, the questionably named "bimbo eruptions," and the emails.

Warren is definitely NOT overqualified to be VP Overqualified would be someone like Nancy Pelosi or Bill Clinton. Warren has been in elected office for a total of, what, 4 years?

I hope this is true. Warren would be an amazing pick.

Nancy wouldn't really be overqualified. Hell, if anything, she's a good pick who would only fail to make sense because of her pivotal role in the House for Democrats.

Hell, I'd take her if Warren somehow comes off the table.

Being VP is a pretty dead-end job in politics. Warren has a potentially huge future in the Senate ahead of her and has already done a lot. She's overqualified in the sense that taking the VP spot wouldn't let her achieve as much as she can in the Senate.

Bernie seems stuck at the 500K mark difference. He's not catching up so far.

The final margin will probably be around 54/46 in California.

Pocahontas will not stick. It's another Republican, no TRUMP, talking point.

Progressives (Bernie's base) loves her which is what we care about. Not racist bigots.

[Icarus]

I'm still angry about Bernie the way he let the crowd boo Hillary was disgusting

[King Maxx]

I'm quite conflicted. I always said how I hated older people when it came to ideology and was ready for them to die out. Yet I sided with them this election and rejected my millennial peers (I'm 18).

i think younger people have a tendency to get more caught up in all the hype. I agree with Bernie's policies but as things went on, he showed himself to be a little more incompetent than I would like and his blatant effort to split the Dem voter base is annoying. I ended up going with Hillary in the end because she has a realistic view of things & we need to unify at this point. I think Bernie is great for pushing a more progressive platform but his presence during this primary season has become a huge strain on an incredibly important election. i'd be more willing to forgive these shenanigans if this was like 2008.

[KimmyBella]
