Hmmm. (CLINTON GROUP)

I rarely go to the Sanders group, but just did. It's really quiet in there.
Maybe all the deliberate disruptors have started the exodus?
Hope so.

DU is not a good measure of Sanders' support. If it was he'd win all 50 states by 40%. George II Apr 2016 #14

Purely out of curiosity, just to see what it was like ... and I got out as fast as I could. *shudder*

Incidentally, I'm fairly new here, but I really enjoy and appreciate the camaraderie in the Hillary group. Everyone seems to support each other and the welcome that is extended to ex-Sandernistas is warm and genuine. I do not get that sentiment AT ALL in the Bernie group. I looked at that post by Autumn where everyone freaks out on her for saying "Call it," and it was pretty horrifying. Seems they'll devour their own without a second thought.

Anyway, if it's getting quiet in the BS group then GOOD. All that negative energy needs to go away.

Then I came to my senses and got on the Obama train. Any Repuke in any position of power is bad for the country as a whole. The reason we have to fight so hard for this presidential election is because we don't have enough people fighting at the city and county level to make it easier for voters to choose decent candidates.

If they're posting on the weekends, then they're an actual real Sanders supporter. During the week, it's mostly Revolution Messaging employees.

and almost every darn video on the right side is a pro bernie sanders video.

Wow. All that push and he's still losing. He's not the best person for the job, simple as that.
