[MannyGoldstein]

then Bernie sure as Hell does have a chance, and he's scaring some folks.

Do you see anyone trying to convince us that MoM has no chance?

Now is the time for a real progressive populist movement, but the message needs to be clear and not overly complex and it needs to be repeated over and over to drive it home into the minds of the people.

Then Bernie will win.

Bernie is fabulous.

[MannyGoldstein]

15. Flag is down

17. Calling Bernie fabulous is an attack now?? I knew you guys were a special lot but that's extra

special there.

[roguevalley]

18. it amuses me when hillaryites tell what is allowed to be

discussed and not.

[Number23]

21. If you consider me a "hillaryite" and have read my posts and somehow deduced that they are an

attempt for me to tell people "what they can discuss or not" in this thread, I get the feeling you are "amused" by a hell of a lot.

[randys1]

127. I just read the last few posts, and It is now official, there is no reason

for any rational human being to take anything on this site serious any longer.

The conversation here, due to certain folks, is now to the point of absurd.

[Number23]

134. Lots of us felt this way about... oh, 8 years ago. When a certain senator was running for

president and people on this site trashed him from sun up to sun down. About EVERYTHING. And even when they were proven dead wrong on issue after issue, they'd just pivot and move on to the next one like it wasn't no thang at all.

They were on the wrong side of history then and more than likely, will be on the wrong side again many, many more times.

[randys1]

135. Not surprised. I remember when he was running and people were saying before and

after he was elected that he was supposed to do x, y and z.

Problem is he never said he was gonna do x, y and z.

He did say he would do a, b and c, and he FUCKING DID , the guy is god damn Superman

20. Ignorance of how the English language works

is probably not your best bet.

[Number23]

22. Does "fabulous" mean something else in Manny English than it does everywhere else in the world?

I'm sure it's not the only thing that means something different to you but I'd really love to hear what you are getting so obviously distressed about.

And how about instead of posting useless pics that have absolutely nothing to do with anything -- considering I have not put forth any argument of any kind, that means I have not put forth a "strawman" argument of any sort -- perhaps you should just stick with words.

[MannyGoldstein]

24. Another flag is down.

[Number23]

27. There was no argument put forth thus there was no "strawman." If you have the time to look for

useless photos, I'm sure you have time to look up the words and phrases you keep tossing around as though you know what they mean.

[MannyGoldstein]

36. Be a dear?

Go look up the word 'implicit', let us know what you find.

'night.

[Number23]

38. Oh, I see. "Implicit" must mean the same thing as "strawman" in Manny English.

Explains your confusion. And a whole lot more.

See ya.

[randys1]

128. My conclusion is you are not alllowed to praise Bernie at DU unless you also praise

certain followers who go out of their way to sow discord and make liberals question whether or not they should vote at all.

[Number23]

131. Oh you know it. But the fan club will cheer no matter how weak the sauce so there's no chance for

improvement or self-reflection.

In hindsight, I should have changed the beginning, though. I need two cups of coffee before I really wake up.

75. President Bernie Sanders is Awesome

[MrMickeysMom]

16. Except when you don't...

Politics is one thing, but being prompted to keep a consistent schedule of tarnish the candidate who consistently connects with the people of this country is another...

You're concerned about Manny's message for a reason. I don't have to wonder what it is... If I may make a suggestion, I'd listen more to what is connecting to the people who find out about Bernie Sanders. I'll bet it will make you a little less paranoid when anyone calls out the obvious.

6. You know Third Way is a term with an actual meaning, right? It refers to Clintonian triangulation,

not to what you think is a minority of the Dem Party.

[KMOD]

8. Yes.

It's been extinct for many years now.

73. When you look a little deeper, not very much deeper because there really isn't

much depth to speak of, you see that many Hillary supporters don't really know the candidate they support very well.

153. If it ever did actually cease to exist, it would probably be because the plutocrats replaced it with

something worse, like TPP Way.

[stillwaiting]

76. The Third Way (and other groups with similar philosophies) are FIRMLY in control

of the Democratic Party.

Their candidates get funded to win primaries, and an OVERWHELMING majority of Democratic Senators are Third Way approved.

It's the way our political system currently works.

102. "3rd Way" & "New Democrats" are Alive and Well, unfortunately for America's Working Class & Poor.

The Third Way is alive, well, and in control of the Democratic Party today.
It is an spawn of the conservative DLC, and organization (funded in part by the Koch Brothers) that was abandoned because its"label" became a negative...so, like any cold blooded reptile, it shed its skin, but it is the same snake and the same old sell out people, only now named "The Third Way", or "New Democrats" (old Republicans).

There is plenty of documentation either on Google, or this site that documents the 3rd Way.

And yes, there may be a think tank out there, and some activists, but there are no current Democrats who label themselves as third way, or have a third way party out there. That died years ago.

They're gonna hear loud and clear from the people who all along were the Democratic wing of the Democratic party.

[KMOD]

37. And you have every right to voice your opinion.

But meanwhile, the majority of the party, and Democratic voters, are working towards getting Hillary Clinton elected POTUS. Because she does represent our values, and does so with intelligence, knowledge and strength.

150. "Conservative" and "Democrat"...

is directly proportional to the amount of Third Way influence circa 1992 Democrats had on those who kept looking at the crystal ball while being fitted for nose rings.

[ConservativeDemocrat]

159. I'm not sure what a penchant for piercings has to do with me...

I kind of think that's more a youth druggie counterculture thing, but hell, whatever you're trying to say about nose rings, I'm sure someone on this board can figure out that word salad of what you're trying to say.

- C.D. Proud Member of the Reality Based Community

[MrMickeysMom]

163. It isn't word salad...

If the terminology escapes you, it's probably because you're too young.

Nose rings are used in animal husbandry to control animals. The human, pejorative connotation implies the control of the masses. Reality based communities use it a lot to control reality.

[ConservativeDemocrat]

166. Hilarious.

You trying to guess my age and tell me about farming. Okay.

Nose rings aren't used to generically "control animals". They're used only for bulls, and even then only as a supplement to a halter, and then only for shows.

Humans aren't cattle, though. Democrats certainly aren't - as you and the other kiddies on this website who throw around grand insults at Democrats, will find out in less than three months.

[Ed Suspicious]

146. Money is speech and the industry is speaking loudly and clearly.

[chervilant]

26. Well, now,

I guess that depends on whose poll you believe.

[zeemike]

28. And who or what is the majority of the party?

Are you talking about polls of likely voters (those that voted in the last election)?...
Well even if a majority of them, say 51%, vote for her it is 51% of 30% of the percentage that voted in the last election.
That is not enough to win.
And it is not enough to win even if every Bernie supporter votes for her too.

So you are experiencing an illusion.

[ibegurpard]

53. She would have to get the majority of Independents

Who don't view her favorably. With few undecideds. And scary poll numbers in a number of crucial swing states. They know this. And yet they continue to push her anyway.

[truedelphi]

103. You are right! And in this election cycle, no one who is influenced by the DLC has ever

expressed any knowledge of the absolute reality that to win the Presidency, a candidate has to be able to carry off the "swing" of people who are not loyalists to either party.

With 40% of all voters repeatedly telling the Pew Survey people that they don't care for the corporate-beholden candidates of either parties, Hillary is unlikely to win.

[madokie]

77. How come out here in the real world

if I hear Hillary's name it is almost always in vain but when I hear Bernie Sanders name it is always or almost always followed by I like this man. I really like what he says, etc.
why is that?

The only thing that could do that to them is the fear that queenie-pooh's coronation could be interrupted. And since they're directing ALL of this seething contempt onto one individual (and his followers) it follows that they fear he will be the cause.

[JDPriestly]

43. K&R.

[Turn CO Blue]

44. A quick knockout can't help Dems or Hillary. We lose momentum.

How can they not get this?

It is in the Party's best interest for this primary race to go on as long as possible.

The debates get media coverage, the horse-race gets media coverage, campaign trail reporters get on the buses and follow candidates around hoping to get a story. When that part is over we lose the media platform to balance the Republican horserace.

But let's say that Hillary wins it all February 1st. Bernie and Martin concede or fizzle out.

The media switches their FULL ATTENTION to Republicans and their horse race for over five months. Republicans get their message and their framing out 24/7. They know for sure who their target is. The Republicans throw punches at each other and at Hillary non-stop. They bask in the added attention. They are smug and suck all the oxygen out of the universe.

MOMENTUM GRINDS TO NEARLY A HALT.

Inertia is tough to overcome.

I can't understand this constant drumbeat that the primaries need to be over immediately. Who would that help?

It would only make sense if some people are more scared of Bernie staying in the race than they are of losing momentum.

[Betty Karlson]

45. All valid points.

All will be ignored by the coronation committee. The power of DINO-Debbie commands you!

[senz]

50. They want to get her past the Bernie threat as soon as possible.

They do not care about anything but installing her in the WH. I don't know what they'll do then. Probably spend the next four years (or until the impeachment) worshiping.

[ibegurpard]

52. posting loving photo montages on DU

They wouldn't need to purge the site.

[kenfrequed]

119. Exactly

And it is even bigger than that. The media wouldn't just be focusing on Republican candidates, every issue or question that would be thrown Hillary's way would be a republican policy and she would feel compelled to move to a "sensible middle ground" in order to highlight the craziness of the Republican party.

Of course this would be particularly hellish in the field of foreign policy. Every one of her positions would move to the Third Way website recommendation.

The GOP would define the platform of what is being discussed and that HURTS us. A lot!

[Todays_Illusion]

46. Yes they say no one is for Bernie but are expending an enormous effort to convince us that is so.

It doesn't add up. There are only two Democratic candidates but the MSM pretends there is only one and
the non-candidate O'Malley gets more mention than the real candidate Bernie Sanders.

[nxylas]

47. I almost find myself wanting to talk up O'Malley

I'd be happy with either Bernie or Martin as a candidate, but the latter has almost no chance of winning the primary. However, every time I even think that, I hear the voice of Sam Gamgee in my head saying "Don't you know who you sound like?"

[joshcryer]

55. I can get behind that.

And I predict now Sanders wins NH.

Can't say about Iowa because MOM has some impressive ground game there and he may pull an upset and it could hurt us down the road. (No offense to MOM supporters, I think we have great candidates and he should continue doing what he does, I don't think he wins a single state, though, sorry.)

[merrily]

Don't know why an argument one way or another would be necessary for anyone politically astute to understand that. On top of that, there has be post after post from Sanders supporters that Clinton can't win. I'm sure those are just astute observations in Manny World. Lol.

If he has enough supporters, he'll be the nominee. If not, Hillary will.

DU is not going to decide the election, frankly. Voters will do that.

I don't care who DUers vote for. I'll be voting for Hillary, because I think she is the person who can win the general election, and I believe that winning that is the overriding goal in 2016.

But, you should vote for whom you prefer, as should everyone on DU and across the country.

The voters will decide.

Sooner or later there will be a sea change way left or horrors way right as in Germany 80 or so years ago.

The staunch Hillary bunch seems not to get this. We cannot go on with a two party system consisting of a far almost fascist right and a Democratic Party that has sold out to Wall Street and largely to perpetual war and the war machine. And the security state.

We cannot go much further like this. We need another FDR and that is not HRC. We need someone who earns the hate of a Wall Street and like FDR says they welcome that hatred. That is Bernie, not Hillary.

Are they trying to "unskew" the polls?

Do they make grandiose claims about conspiracies?

You don't need to correct false and/or silly arguments never made.

116. Yeah...

If he really didn't stand a chance we would just be getting lots of positive Hillary posts and no mentions of Bernie at all from that camp. Instead we get an unending deluge of attacks from Hillary backers that started early last summer and has not ended.

If he was faring so poorly most of the posts would be something like "I really like Bernies ideas and I hope Hillary adopts them."

Instead we have had long term Third Way/form DLC supporters on here making all sorts of tangled and twisted arguments. It is pretty sad.

121. Yawn

Glad you could do more emogies!

Thanks for the kick though.

I should point out that people really aren't convinced by 'lolling' on a message board but whatever gives you your kicks I guess.

[NurseJackie]

123. Oh please! :-D

Glad you could do more emogies!

Me too! I love you guys!

And I should point out that you have quite an imagination if you believe that my "lolling" is intended to convince anyone of anything.

149. I'm just glad you are secretly on our side

I mean, how else could anyone explain you constantly kicking this thread to the top.

As a Sanders supporter I thank you for all your hard work and hope that you will be there for us in November!

124. I was thinking the same thing.

If there so certain he can't win, why are they wasting the energy?
What's that line about protesting too much?

129. I see it as gloating

Maybe premature gloating, but still gloating.

[edgineered]

138. K&R The other three Bernie supporters here must have 196 sockpuppets.

This must be true because this makes rec #200. How those busy few supporters of his are skewing polls and mocking DU's rec system is truly amazing. Do they never rest?

156. I like Bernie I am not afraid

Bernie is self actualized...the "movement" itself needs some work...that is my critique

[LannyDeVaney]

161. Strawman arugument ...

I've yet to see "so many" fighting to convince you that Bernie has no chance.

Persecution complex comes to mind on the GD : P board.
