Apparently, Bernie, Chomsky, *and* Angela Davis have all come out for Hillary. Am i supposed to think of them as deluded running dog traitors, or professional progressives who have made tactical decisions based on an educated reading of the landscape?

i.e. professional progressives who have made tactical decisions based on an educated reading of the landscape.
That's what i was banking on (pun not intended, much).
@9: I had the same confusion. It's hard to tell. This whole election has been one big Poe's Law.
(Fun side note, the Conservapedia entry is the featured definition that appears for me when I google that, and I'm honestly not sure if it's Google providing a real-world meta example or not.)
I don't know why anyone would care who Colin Powell is voting for. If he thinks Clinton is the better candidate, he should simply have shut up, rather than embarass her by having his leaked email brought into play again.
Fuzzy moderate to mildly conservative Republicans and some of the more honorable conservatives could conceivably be persuaded by his announcement. Anyone who says that they will now not vote for Clinton because of Powell's endorsement was never going to vote for her anyway. So despite Powell's flawed war criminal background his announcement won't hurt her chances.
Hillary is the uber candidate of the status-quo establishment.
All the fuck wits who have screwed up our international and military policy for the past 20 are in her camp.
Full steam ahead....
@5: Except Clinton had a private server in her private home. Powell did not. There is a huge difference between a private account (Powell) and a private server (Clinton).
You keep telling this same lie, do you know you are lying, or do you simply not know the facts?
Shocking.
The fact that guy has the gall to show his face in public after that fiasco at the UN in 2003 is the measure of our nation's degeneracy.

Hillary is rational, Trump is not. Plain and simple. That is the choice.
Oh and fuck your green libertarian socialist thin sliced baloney bullshit "3rd choice" candidates.
