Be polite and civil to the people you speak with. This also applies if you have to leave a message. I'm angry, you're angry, but don't take it out on a staffer - they didn't make the decision, they just have to answer the phones, which will be ringing off the hook. I feel for them, they're in for a rough day and they didn't make this stupid decision.

Sorry! Was assuming all would see the other threads with this info!

[VanillaRhapsody]

1. This made me chuckle

Don't be mad we got caught cheating! Nope Sanders supporters would never do that!

[ms liberty]

3. Of course it did, VR

I would expect nothing less from you. I'm sure you are giddy with joy, since you've been apoplectic about Bernie running since before he ever announced.

[VanillaRhapsody]

4. Should I be sad?

that Sanders Campaign got caught red handed?

I'm was never apoplectic.... thats ridiculous...but I did point out he was NOT an actual Democrat until he had to say it out loud and publicly to get on the NH ballot.....and I was right as rain.

[joshcryer]

6. You should be empathetic.

That the actions of a couple of idiots are hurting a lot of Sanders supporters today.

Rather than reveling in something no campaign can predict or prepare for.

[ms liberty]

7. Unfortunately, that's how VR rolls, 24/7/365.

Thanks, josh.

[VanillaRhapsody]

15. Thanks....you are right

I don't emphathize with cheaters and those that hypocritically expect it of me...

[VanillaRhapsody]

14. For cheating?

I should emphathize with cheating?

[joshcryer]

18. Do you have evidence it was a planned breach?

[VanillaRhapsody]

19. It was the National Data Director!!!I

[CoffeeCat]

25. I don't think it's that big of a deal...

The data was exposed. One Sanders employee viewed the data.

He was fired.

This is not that big of a deal.

I don't think anyone is hurting really. This will be a non-issue by the next news cycle.

[ms liberty]

12. Actually, you were apoplectic, and you did more than that...

Anyone expressing support for Bernie you called a Left leaning Libertarian, ***correction, it was Left Leaning Independents*** repeatedly. You repeatedly asked every person for a loyalty pledge to the nominee, who you believe will be HRC, even before she or Bernie had announced. You did these things to the point of harassment. You PM'D people while you were on timeouts when you disagreed with them, I was one of them once. You've worked really hard to help make DU into The Primary Wars 2016 earlier than ever before, and you've done a bang-up job. At least you finally got over your obsession with posting in all caps; I suppose I should thank the Goddess for small favors.

[VanillaRhapsody]

17. And you know my emotions now?

Thats some big magic over the web.....how do you do it?

And I was the one calling Sanders a Socialist not a Democrat..and I was right......he had to become "a Democrat now".

[artislife]

36. I got an incoherent pm from you

You have been very forward with your "thoughts".

[stonecutter357]

13. +1

[workinclasszero]

35. No kidding!

WTH are people mad about?

That Bernies right hand man got caught with his hand in the DNC's cookie jar?

Maybe folks should direct their "anger" towards the campaign that made this breech possible???

[Android3.14]

2. Good advice, despite the soulsick responses of Her Majesty's supporters

[ms liberty]

5. Yes, as long as their candidate wins the primary

They don't really care who or what gets blown up.

[Chan790]

20. When their candidate goes home on Election Day a loser...

are they going to be mad at us when we point out that we saw years ago that she was never going to be electable as President? That by not shanking her campaign and driving her out of this race that they handed the White House to the goddamned GOP? That they are traitors to Democratic ideals and Democratic voters?

That Hillary is both a bad person and a terrible candidate?

[BlueMTexpat]

23. If you are trying to convince any Hillary

supporters to desert our candidate for yours, your remarks are an epic fail.

I concur that the OP is good advice indeed.

I am not at all "soulsick" and if you consider my response to be such, then you should look in the mirror.

[NCTraveler]

8. Tell her you want transparency...

And won't rest until we get to the bottom of all those involved.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

9. Would be nice to have contact info.

[ms liberty]

16. Sorry! Updated with info now.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

24. multo graci!

[peacebird]

10. Phone number please? I plan to also call my Dem Senators Warner &Kaine to complain

[ms liberty]

21. Sorry peacebird, updated with info now!

I was assuming everyone was reading the other threads, lol - you know what they say about assuming stuff!

[stonecutter357]

11. Sanders campaign improperly accessed Clinton voter data

[CoffeeCat]

26. This was one person who saw the exposed data, correct?

That's a stretch to suggest that "Sanders (sic) campaign" accessed the data.

One person. And that person was fired.

Bernie is honest and trustworthy. Everyone understands that he would not condone this.

He remains rock-solid. No question.

[leftofcool]

28. Uh no, 4 people saw the data.

[MrMickeysMom]

33. I was expecting their names to follow...

Do tell...

[itsrobert]

39. Hopefully Bernie releases their names pretty soon

We shall see.

[JaneyVee]

22. DWS should be calling Bernie's office.

[leftofcool]

29. I bet that has been done several times.

[merrily]

27. Good advice. No DUer is likely to be speaking with anyone involved in this terrible decision.

[WillyT]

30. HUGE K & R !!! - THANK YOU !!!

[peacebird]

31. The number is now taking me to a modem... Haven't heard THAT sound in decades....

[ChairmanAgnostic]

32. Busy. 3 times, and busy.

I suspect that more than a few are calling Whatshername schultz to complain.

[MrMickeysMom]

34. They're "formulating" their "response"...

[ChairmanAgnostic]

[MisterP]

[Cal33]
