[99th_Monkey]

3. If I didn't know better, I'd say this looks like a freaking Political Revolution!!

[hootinholler]

4. I have to wonder what will happen when he gets to New York City

I bet he will draw more than 4500 there.

[xynthee]

10. Will he ever come to NYC?!?!

I'm getting impatient!

[SoapBox]

25. OR...when he gets to Los Angeles!

Maybe Staples Center or The Rose Bowl!

Feel the Bern America!

[LibDemAlways]

47. Hope he makes it here, too. I'm tired of

politicians who think of LA as a giant ATM- showing up for fundraisers on the west side, grabbing the cash, and quickly leaving town -- forgetting that in the nation's most populous state, there are ordinary people who's concerns aren't being addressed.

[peacebird]

91. Dunno, but the four freedoms park is gonna be WAY TOO SMALL for him!

[democrank]

5. Oh-Em-Gee.....

[Maedhros]

14. ...and the bullshit meme is propagated. [n/t]

[neverforget]

26. It's disgusting and something I'd expect from the Republicans.

[appalachiablue]

28. +1 envy is an awful feeling

FULL HOUSE in Portland, Maine! Between 9,000-10,000

[Divernan]

77. Lotta, lotta young people in the crowd! Excellent!

[appalachiablue]

89. Absolutely, young people, mid lifers, old people- many Americans are gravitating to Sanders

because they recognize the real deal and know a good thing when they see it, especially in these difficult times!

Go Bernie!
~ Do Not Underestimate Bernie Sanders ~ Or the American people! ~

[Autumn]

92. Wow those pics are amazing.

I mean, who gets crowd this size in a primary contest? Thanks for sharing....

[appalachiablue]

96. Here's the MADISON, Wisconsin Campaign Event recently- incredible!

THE SURGE in Madison, Wisconsin!

[neverforget]

31. and you seem so focused on color. nt

[Maedhros]

41. Yep, you sure did. [n/t]

[bluedigger]

48. It was a pretty stupid one, too.

Obviously, you've never been to Maine.

[arcane1]

54. The new rule is it's racist just to give a speech there.

Welcome to crazytown!

[Change has come]

63. I'm sorry you had your post hidden by jury decision.

Are you starting to get a sense of deja vu?

[WorseBeforeBetter]

64. Do Hillary proud and learn the difference between 'there' and 'their'.

Thanks.

[Gore1FL]

114. Don't post obvious lflame bait and then pretend to be innocent.

It's unbecoming.

[Enthusiast]

34. Huge +1! Bullshit meme.

[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]

[Duckhunter935]

53. and they say we are not civil

Maybe Skinner should see some more like that from the supporter of the candidate in his post. Disappointing.

[crim son]

61. I had to laugh when I read the hidden message.

It's Maine! It's white! I know, I live here. SMH.

[mainer]

78. I know! I think we're the whitest state

And the oldest state. Don't hate us for it!

[bunnies]

85. Now you get to be marginalized just like us in NH!

Welcome to the club, neighbor!

[frylock]

18. That's a lot of derp.

[kath]

21. And a lot of desperation.

[glinda]

37. derperation

[frylock]

97. roffle

[GoneOffShore]

51. Herpelly, derpelly with apple sauce

And Jiggery-pokery

[longship]

23. Jerk! nt

[SoapBox]

27. Of course someone would have to throw that out.

I don't think your candidate would approve.

[Pharaoh]

30. lotsa white people

It's Maine for Christ sake!

[mwooldri]

35. They don't get much sun in Maine.

They not just white, they're real white. So white, they blend in with the paper from the copier machine.

[-Bernie-]

42. No wonder why I have met any Mainers....

...let me clear out my desk.....

[zappaman]

45. I'm cleaning out my drawer!

[Man of Distinction]

62. So every Bernie supporter with a low post count you meet is a sock?

Is that what you are trying to imply, sir?

I find it highly insulting.

[zappaman]

67. No.

Not "every"...sir.

[rhett o rick]

69. Insults is what they are left with. They refuse to discuss issues. nm

[zappaman]

75. Who is "they" Rick?

[frylock]

98. Them.

[zappaman]

102. Those?

[Agschmid]

118. Their?

[zappaman]

119. The Village People?

[Agschmid]

120. The one in the hard hat is mine...

Back off.

[stonecutter357]

81. i can't vote for a gun nut.

[TM99]

103. So assuming you are referring to Sanders,

who are you going to vote for in the General when he has the Dem nod?

[arcane1]

104. You're in luck then- he isn't one.

That's just another lie from the corpratist camp.

[stonecutter357]

105. Will Bernie Sanders evolve on being a gun nut?

http://www.politicususa.com/2015/07/07/surprise-hillary-clinton-left-senator-bernie-sanders.html

[arcane1]

106. You keep saying it, but it doesn't make it true.

Remember what Skinner said about making Hillary supporters look bad? You're doing it now

[stonecutter357]

110. .

[arcane1]

111. Beats thinking for yourself, doesn't it?

Far easier to copy/paste the meme of the day and pretend it's your idea

[ieoeja]

109. The NRA thanks you.

Gungeoneers often make the bullshit claim that the phrase "gun nut" refers to all supporters of any firearm rights. In reality, when we talk about gun nuts we are talking about the people who want guns almost everywhere, e.g. concealed carry in churches.

With one exception: you. Sanders supports waiting periods, allowing municipalities to ban concealed carry, etc. If you are calling Sanders a "gun nut" then you must think that anyone who does not support a complete firearms ban is a gun nut.

They now have you as the perfect example to prove their point.

[artislife]

117. Didn't Hilary wax on about learning to shoot a gun

When she was whistling during the 2008 primary race?

[magical thyme]

43. it's Maine. if Hillary comes here it will be just as white.

[morningfog]

50. But not as well attended.

[GoneOffShore]

52. Be nice....

but tell the truth.

[BrotherIvan]

58. snap

[Rosa Luxemburg]

15. Fantastic!

[WillyT]

16. Woo Hoo !!!

& Rec !!!

[SidDithers]

17. ...

Sid

[Number23]

32. Spill it, Sid. Who's this guy??

[Peregrine Took]

56. Good one! n/t

[Indepatriot]

22. It's a brand new rock!

[MissDeeds]

24. Go Bernie!

K&R

[mythology]

33. That looks like there's a couple of more people that Chris Christie got

when getting his big endorsement from Maine governor Paul LePage.

Whether you support Sanders, or another candidate, or haven't made up your mind, Sanders is doing a hell of a job getting his supporters out to campaign stops.

[Enthusiast]

36. Kicked and recommended a whole bunch!

Go, Bernie!

[JaneyVee]

38. Good for Bernie. He needs to be heard.

[zeemike]

39. Welcome to DU Bernie.

Your name is popular here.

[glinda]

40. Bernie? Well....in any case KICK this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[moondust]

44. Rachel reporting crowd of 7000-9000.

Venue had to be moved to someplace that would hold a crowd four times larger than originally planned for.

[BrotherIvan]

59. ^^This is the takeaway

What a powerful narrative, the crowds keep growing so fast, he can't keep up.

[magical thyme]

46. dayum I wanted to be there

but I have to be up at 5am tomorrow for a 13 hour work day.

[a kennedy]

49. But cookie Roberts of NPR says big crowds don't mean big numbers of voters.......as in Eugene McCarthy....

This was after Bernie's huge crowd in Madison. I turned the d*mn radio off. She's full of cookies.

[Peregrine Took]

57. Hahaha - "Cookie" sure knows her stuff!

Like in Madison - those libs will turn out for ANYONE!!

The milkman, the dog walker, anyone can get 10,000 people to show up and more to wait outside because its MADison and they will just show up!!! Its what they do there..

[marlakay]

65. Right..just like Obama's crowds!

His got bigger and bigger until Portland Oregon was insane and Boulder CO. bernie will do the same.

[paleotn]

60. Wow! Just wow!....

way to go Portland.

[postatomic]

66. That's pretty fucking awesome

[sabrina 1]

68. The more people hear him the more popular his message becomes.

[sabrina 1]

71. Yes it is. He has the right message for ALL AMERICANS. I'm watching the poutrage and

smiling. He's a very smart man and did not make this decision lightly or quickly. His strategy so far has been brilliant.

[Fearless]

72. Where's Hillary??

Seriously though... Bernie is doing tons... Where is she?

[Divernan]

76. Evolving in private?

[stonecutter357]

83. Will Bernie Sanders evolve on being a gun nut?

[Divernan]

84. So you don't know where she is, either? That was the issue.

[stonecutter357]

86. are you going to vote for a gun nut?

[Fearless]

99. I'm sorry what has Hillary proposed for gun regulations as of late?

[L0oniX]

87. .

[AllyCat]

79. Let me trot out some memes from Madison:

Liberals abound in Madison!
Anti-Walker, they'd like anyone
And my favorite--But it's a COLLEGE TOWN!!!!

What are the excuses for this enormous crowd besides:

Go Bernie!

[raouldukelives]

82. K&R Does this old environmentalists heart good to see democracy.

May it continue to grow and outshine all the wealth of Goldman and the money changers.

[sabrina 1]

88. He inspires people and the more people who hear him, the more packed houses there are.

And all he does is tell the truth!

[peacebird]

90. Awesome ! K&R!!!

[Iwillnevergiveup]

93. The time Bernie's speech took

could be cut by about 20% but for the clapping and yelling of the crowd.
Yes, Portland is feelin' the Bern.

K&R

[sabrina 1]

108. He is energizing the country to begin to have faith in our electoral system once again.

People hear him speak and they know he is telling the truth and is not afraid to do so.

Because he is under no obligation to Corporate Interests.

[Autumn]

95. The Bernie phenomeon is something else indeed

We're so lucky to be part of something so huge and wonderful.

[olegramps]

100. He is the REAL DEAL!!

Hilary has run into a buzz saw. His message is not only electrifying, but also comprehensive in scope. He has outlined the massive problems that have resulted from capitalistic greed that is actually destroying the nation. The situation is dire and must be reversed if our youth have any hope of a future. I can only hope that Americans come their senses and realize that when the abandoned the unions and bought the bullshit corporate propaganda and crap spewed by their bought and paid for politicians they sealed their own fate.

[immoderate]

[DebbieCDC]

113. I've been to rock concerts that had less of a turn-out than Bernie's rallies

Please come to to the PacNW Senator. We'll give you a good turnout here.

[AzDar]
