1. Yes. That is what they are saying.nt

[Armstead]

16. The Clinton campaign has been marketing race since Day 1

Thats all it is to them -- marketing.

In 2008 their target market was white voters. This year she positioned herself as the champion of minorities.

Both are equalky insincere. Brand positioning.

2. Much like dismissing less diverse states that actually vote Democratic...

...Seems like the exact opposite of intelligence to me.

Nobody deserves to be dismissed and everyone Democrat deserves the chance to have their voice heard in selecting a nominee.

Fair enough?

[RobertEarl]

3. It's not that

It is the fact that SC IS SC and it is not representative of the rest of the US.

SC had its vote and its delegates counted. Good bye to SC and keep that damn flag down where it belongs.

[RobertEarl]

15. You mean win the GE?

I have said all along that we'll be deciding our nom at the convention.

As for the GE I am sure all good Dems will vote for the Dems. What worries me most is what the elite rich mofos do to our nominee.

[TCJ70]

4. No...

...you'll get a bit of that (kind of like how NH was only won because of white people...but that's OK because they're white, right HRC fans? Goes both ways I guess).

The racial stuff that's being tossed around is stupid. SC is a weird state to focus on as I don't think they've gone Dem in the GE for quite some time. That's what ultimately matters in the end.

13. Not exactly. What matters now is getting the nomination

And SC and it's delegates are part of that process.

[TCJ70]

17. That's not what I've been told about Sanders for months now...

...the electability in a GE argument has been used against him ad nauseum despite evidence to the contrary.

[brush]

24. It's primary season. Talking about the general election now is just getting ahead of yourself

If you can't win the primary, you don't get to show how electable you are in the general.

6. I'd be more interested in swing state voters honestly.

SC is far from being a swing state.

[Joe the Revelator]

11. Sure. I suspect she is going to win the nomination, if she can away from an indictment...

....what I don't think she can do, in all honesty, is win the GE. Against any republican. Save maybe, Carson. I'm backed up by polling and Hillary's history of not improving her polls instead of wishful thinking.

[Persondem]

20. NOt as far as you might think. Check out this widget from 538

All it would take is for Latinos to vote as often as AA, going 50/50 with white educated voters and getting another 1-2% of the white, less educated vote.

8. Can you say swing states

Reds are red
Blues are blue
We win the election
If swing states are blue.

easy to remember

try it

[SoLeftIAmRight]

12. Those will have more meaning than SC

You must believe she can win them in the general

[SoLeftIAmRight]

19. why be rude?

???

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Completely out of line

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Feb 27, 2016, 11:18 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: As a Bernie supporter and contributor, I completely disagree with BillyDawg's caricature of the views of "Bernie supporters." But I don't find it disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: That is a legitimate statement. I totally disagree and will probably respond. (Thanks moderators or computer for bringing it to my attention.) But I do not believe in removing posts from DU just because I disagree with the opinion expressed in them. This website is about discussion, and we need to allow the expression of a variety of opinions.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Maybe someone understands the undercurrent that caused the alerter to think this was worth a hide but this one falls into the WTF category for me. What are we taking a second look at this one ?
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: LOL alerter

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

21. For some here south bashing is a tradition.

It is a small minority of posters but they are passionate about it. I don't think that's out of bounds to say considering some of the ops currently up. But with the direction of the conversation it doesn't represent even close to a majority of Sanders supporters here.

[NCTraveler]

27. It is coming from that direction.

I just feel most don't like some of that verbiage at all.

[NWCorona]

23. I think that way to much emphasis is being placed on Bernie's supporter's are saying

When the focus should be on what the individual campaigns are saying and doing.

Why would anyone let someone that they don't know and never met have so much influence as to how they'd vote?
