THe Corp hacks are attacking Sanders w/a frenzy b/c they realize Camp Clinton screwed up.

The undemocratic crap and the manufactured smearing of Bernie Supporters that was pulled in NV will have serious consequences in November. A dumb, dumb, dumb move.

And the unending bashing of Bernie will just make people tune out if he is not the nominee. So good luck in trying to get people to turn out for Clinton and to not vote for Trump. I guess the corporate hacks forgot that people have to watch them in order for the propaganda to work.

Register on time and as a Democrat by the right day and then showing up to mark an X in a box or drawing a line to an arrow for a candidate may be too complicated for your abilities.

This situation has become extremely ugly; people are acting like the Republicans earlier in their cycle.

Hillary is scrabbling for every vote; she's getting them and I genuinely congratulate her and acknowledge that she will be the nominee, but it has not been easy for her, against a previously unknown democratic socialist. She will NOT win the general election without Bernie's supporters, so, rightly or wrongly but simply practically, her representatives ought to be more conciliatory. It's like the OWS all over again only it's our own side who's trying to shut the progressives up, and that is painful and disappointing.

Only Democrats with a capital D get to vote in the GE. I mean, that must be the case, because otherwise Clinton's campaign's behavior would make absolutely no sense at all...

Not Clinton herself, at least just now. People who apparently think they are "helping" her.
