Hillary declared victory?

Uh. No, she's done no such thing.

But her supporters on DU seem to be declaring victory.

If they are so confident, why don't they just fold up the:
Attack Bernie and his supporters tent

and go fight Trump? Why are they still in their bitter attack mode?

Maybe, like Hillary, they really know it ain't over yet?

Was at an all time high (after a summer and fall of telling HRC supporters they weren't real progressives) just a couple weeks ago after Michigan. Now it's less so, which is fine by me.

Because your all just so fun to play with.

I mean, look at that comment you replied to. Not progressive at all, yet you just let it slide. Best thing you could have done was alert on it as it is rude and disruptive flame bait. And bad spelling too!

Or alerted on. Why it was just last week when a Bernie supporter said Sec. Clinton should do something to herself with a brick. The thread received more than 100 recs, mostly from approving Bernie supporters is my guess.

All that aside, I've enjoyed the schadenfreude immensely since Tuesday night. I will admit to that.

You have a nice evening

Just doesn't match up with progressive, that's all. Someone paints yall as anti-progressive and then you set out to prove it?

Ok, fine.

The primary is not over, It won't be until the convention, unless Hillary quits before then. In the meantime maybe yall might be a little more progressive acting?

1244 more delegates to win the nomination.
Senator Sanders is approx 300 delegates behind her.

Again - with 2308 Delegates Available!

I understand math is hard for some.

Go away. Leave GDP and start posting pro-Clinton GE material against Trump, then.

Given how Sanders supporters have treated my LGBT and AA friends so far this campaign season, I'm not at all interested in any sort of reconciliation, and I find it the height of absurdity and hilarity that your campaign built on absent young voters and independents and trailing so badly in the race believes we need you.

Have a pleasant day.

Sanders and his supporters supported LGBT and AA civil rights decades before yours evolved.

You do know what PUMA means right?

All of the independent supporters of Sanders are incapable of being PUMA's. We are not fucking Democrats. You need our votes though to win the GE and to defeat Trump.

One of your buddies told one of my gay friends here he "wouldn't fuck him with another dog's dick." Another viciously insulted him over private message. Several others have repeatedly, remorselessly called my AA friends here "low information" "house niggers" and "race naggers" who suffer from Stockholm Syndrome, live in the ghetto, and care solely about welfare.

If that's the kind of "support" you're offering, I'll pass.

One of my buddies?

So one idiot, who I am sure was banned, was a homophobe. You are capable of recognizing that one is not many, right?

I am bi-racial, and I have been hounded for not being the 'right type of colored person' for my support of Sanders, Killer Mike, Nina Turner, and Dr. West, so you can spare me the sob stories from a few shit disturbers.

I support all LGBT people and their civil rights including yours, but you are right, I offer none to you personally. Vile, bullying, sycophantish behavior in a person is not something I waste my time being around.

Have a nice life, and good luck next fall, because y'all will fucking need it after the way y'all have acted.

In fact, a jury allowed that post to stand. So, at a bare minimum, it was at least five people--the poster, and at least four who thought it deserved to stay.

I honestly and sincerely apologize for you being attacked as far as your race is concerned. That's utterly unacceptable.

I don't think this is going to end well for either of us, so I think it's probably best that we just go our own ways. Good luck, and take care.
