So the Rethugs are united now: Trump is the winner. But we're going to keep attacking each other.

[pnwmom]

Bernie is staying in the race, helping Trump attack Hillary, even though Bernie has a greater chance of winning the lottery than winning this primary.



And Rethugs in upcoming contests will feel free to vote for Bernie to try to kneecap Hillary.

I fail to see how this will help the progressive cause in either the short or the long run.

1. Because our primary is still going on

and there are defining differences between your candidate and mine.

[pnwmom]

6. Their primary will still be going on and they have huge differences between their candidates. n/t

[pinebox]

7. You just answered your own question :)

[pnwmom]

10. No, i just pointed out the flaw in your reasoning. n/t

[pinebox]

11. If you say so

I think it depends on how you look at it.
As I said, there are defining differences between your candidate and mine.
That is why we are in primary mode and until Hillary or Bernie drops out, it will be that way.

[NurseJackie]

29. Bernie won't be the nominee ...

... the "we still have differences" is a vanity plea. He still won't be the nominee.

[nc4bo]

2. Because we have two sides willing to fight for their candidate until convention.

Two sides very interested in doing what they think is best for America.

It should be celebrated.

[TheCowsCameHome]

4. ..the repubs can't hit a moving target.

[timmymoff]

5. Because our front runner is a borderline republican?

[Third Doctor]

9. This

[cali]

8. Buzzt. And Lol.

The republicans aren't remotely united. It's a party in disarray.

[TheCowsCameHome]

14. Is that really you?

Whoa! This IS a gooooood night.

[cali]

17. Yep. Really is. And thanks.

[TheCowsCameHome]

18. I may party 'til dawn.....

of who-knows-when.

[big_dog]

12. Kasich will take this all the way to Cleveland!

going for the sliver....

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. Did you mean sliver or silver?

Either one would work, actually!

[msongs]

13. now repubs can all vote for bernie in the remaining primaries even more than they already have but

their sabotage attempt is likely way to late

[TheCowsCameHome]

16. bitter, bitter, bitter,

but consistent.

[pnwmom]

19. They can still try to sabotage California.

[timlot]

15. I saw this coming as Trump started to roll...

Hillary and Bernie need to talk about teaming up or we are going to lose.

[insta8er]

21. Hillary is far more flawed and has a unfavorable rating that will help the Repubs during the GE

Guess who they would like to run against? Hillary exactly.

[pnwmom]

22. The Rethugs have a thick opposition file on Bernie -- they've just never opened it yet.

And Hillary hasn't touched it either. But it's there and it's ready. So it's silly to think that because Bernie hasn't been attacked by them yet, that when they attacked they wouldn't reduce his favorability.

[LiberalAndProud]

23. That worked out so badly for us the last time we had a protracted primary.

Actually, no it didn't. Our candidate won.

[pnwmom]

25. They also had a protracted primary. That's the difference. n/t

[LiberalAndProud]

26. Sure. It had nothing to do with the quality of the candidates.

McCain-Palin is almost as attractive as Trump-somebody.

If our candidate can't beat Trump because we allow the voters to vote then fuck us all anyway.

[bigwillq]

24. DEMs will be fine when the nominee is official.

The DEM race has been good for democracy.


DEMs will come together after the national convention. They always seem to do, this year will be no different.

[ScreamingMeemie]

27. I don't know why people are so scared and angry...

[bigwillq]

28. Because HILLARY. It's her FREAKING TURN

and why are you trying to stop that?????? DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111 Damn You for getting in HER way.

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. It's just my self-loathingness...
