I'm trying to picture an enthusiastic Clinton supporter that I know and I just can't. I know people (some very well) who state that they will vote for Clinton, but there is a distinct lack of enthusiasm when they say that. (Trump supporters are generally more animated when discussing their candidate.) Even a few women who want a first female president tell me that they felt better about Obama in 2012 than Clinton now.

I just can't picture someone who is volunteering time for Clinton per se as opposed to volunteering time for Clinton on behalf of some organization that endorsed Clinton. One Clinton supporter told me she logged 5 hrs for Clinton but only because her mother's union endorsed Clinton and her mom (a strong union believer) wasn't up to it from her health. Her mom was supposed to put in 10 hrs, but told the daughter 5 was enough. Apparently, for Obama, the mom logged at least 40 hrs and the daughter then living out of state did a few weeks of evening work.

I know one. There is this guy that banged his intern in his office while he was working once. Honestly I think he just wants her to win so he has another pool of interns to pick from.

Ever considered that you don't know everybody in the country?

I know quite a few very enthusiastic supporters of Clinton. If we aren't gainfully employed, we'd be attending her rallies.

Added by edit.

Oh yeah, regarding the sticker thing. I don't have a personal car. I only drive a company car. So, I can't put any sticker on there. If I could, I would.

I think that people only support her because they believe the media's lies that Trump hates gays, Hispanics, immigrants, blacks, etc. She is not an inspirational person and obviously very corrupt, deceptive, and condescending.

I know some HC voters-0 enthusiastic. Simply party loyalists. Most wanted Biden to run. My hunch is, if she wins, most will want her VP to become POTUS early on. NONE voted for her in the primary in either 2008 or 2016.

Quiet Determination would be a better way to describe Hillary supporters.

As for the lack of signs and bumper stickers, I'm not see them for either candidate.

You don't have to know everybody, you just have to know the half that don't fall into racist, elitist Hillary's bucket of "deplorables"

determination? for her?

people weren't born last night, they're not going to put their passion behind her after all the stuff that's come out, remember, these people have to look their kids in the eye and answer questions from young children about law breaking and corruption.
